Ah ok, because personally I tried the RPL on the 83+ and never could get it, even if the tutorials were in French. I guess HP calcs are more for a different group of people as you say.

* Spyro543 wants a Prizm instead of this old useless 9860.

But I don't even know how to program simple collisions. I can't even make a drawing program work correctly.

BTW, Spyro543, we don't allow double posting in Omnimaga.  Read the rules (link at the top) about when you can double post.  Thank you!

The 9860G is not close from useless. It's just that fewer developement have been done for this series so far. I'm sure that it would be easy to port Prizm games to the 9860G, although they would be grayscale and at much lower resolution.

it's faster than prizm BASIC and it smells better :P
EDIT: for collision detection in my game-thingy, I stored the map data in a list. Then use a formula like this, with X and Y being your current coordinates and C being the number of columns:
Code: [Select]
If List 1[C(X-1) + Y + 1]=1 and getKey=28(or whatever right is :P)
Then
X+1 -> X
EndIf

Well I still want a Prizm or Nspire.

* Spyro543 stares at a picture of a TI-Nspire with Touchpad. :love:

* He then sees that you can get it for $97. :w00t:

* He cries - he really wants one. :'(

Yeah I agree that one of those would be nice. If you want the TOuchpad, you should try to get it with the 84+ keypad, though, and if it's used on Ebay, I don't think you can request a free 84+ keypad from TI like you would with a brand new calc, because the previous owner might have already done so.

A Prizm would be nice, because it has much more potential for third-party development.

Why would someone buy an Nspire, get an 84+ keypad and sell the calc? What is he going to use the keypad for if he doesn't have a calc?

Make extra money from the 84+ keypad. Someone who buys the calc will have to buy the keypad separately.

I'd probably spend more money on the 84+ keypad as that's all I'm interested in. :P

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

Anyone else hear anything about this?

I'd love to see this happen for the Prizm.  It would be a very good marketing strategy, especially seeing how the US economy is doing.
