NES Games & State Machines
A couple of years ago gamedev channel NesHacker did a video on how everything in your typical NES game is really a pile of state machines, concurrent ones, nested ones, bunches and bunches of them. If you have any interest in NES coding at all, it's worth a look. (8½ minutes)

Score Keeping on the NES
Sometimes I feel like I should put a content warning here when the technical level of a post is higher than usual. This one would probably be a five out of five for geekery. It's a video from NESHacker on counting score on the Nintendo Entertainment System. But I don't want to discourage

NESHacker’s Guide to the NES Hardware
More and more I find I should do a blog search to make sure that I haven't posted something before, and my search for this video didn't find it. It did find our link to the Copetti Site's discussion of various console architectures, and a separate link specifically to their explication of the SNES' cons

The Code That Makes Mario Move

Joel Montes de Oca 🦀Jan 14, 2023

I've spent this last week sick at home with #COVID. During that time I downloaded #RetroArch and have been playing a few #NES games. Now I have this crazy itch to make my own home brew NES game.

I've been watching YouTube videos on how to program #6502assembly since yesterday and it seems pretty cool. What am I getting my self into?

If anyone is curious, #NESHacker is a great channel putting out content on programming NES games and the 6502 processor.
