A StarCraft clone might actually be possible, given that StarCraft runs on a 90 MHz Pentium with 16 MB of RAM. The fact that StarCraft is not open-source would certainly thwart any attempts to port it, though.

yeah that's what I thought. the lack of graphic card might be an issue, but I am sure something similar could be possible. Also SC graphics would look awesome because the game was in 256 colors and converting to grayscale gives about 32 shades of gray. If you check in my mock up, it doesn't look that bad actually.

Otherwise there could be Command And Conquer from 1995 or Warcraft II

EDIT

@SirCmpwn: TI recently released the TI-Nspire Navigator, but I don't know much about it. IIRC it's to easily transfer programs and activities from a computer to a bunch of Nspires, but I could be wrong. I don't know if it does stuff from calc to calc.

My sister's math class uses this.  She thinks (but is not certain) that it is only calc to computer.

if it could be used between calc it would be cool, altough the price is another story...

It's Nspire, not nSpire.

The wireless TI-Navigator definitely uses Wi-Fi, so we have the hardware. The software is another thing, however...
Maybe someone could write some drivers for a USB wireless adapter in the future. The high price of the Navigator seems to be an insurmountable obstacle.

Sorry, I have a splint on and mistakes come easy.  So, lets try messing with ports and such guys!  How 'bout a disassembly?

No need to be picky on this, though, but I noticed many ppl used nSpire, especially in the french TI community x.x. But yeah TI really meant something that sounds like "Inspire" more than "An Spire". Don't worry too much about it, though, SirCmpwn.

As for ports, sorry it won't be me, because I am not into assembly and hardware stuff x.x

with the starcraft, if it really does get cloned, it would be hard to tell the enemies from your unit, since there are no colors...

Spoiler For funny life mathematics:
1. ROMANCE MATHEMATICS
Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage
Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy
2. OFFICE ARITHMETIC
Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime
3. SHOPPING MATH
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need.
4. GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
5. HAPPINESS
To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
6. LONGEVITY
Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die.
7. PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
8. DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)
*Girls=Evil credit goes to Compynerd255*

i am sure some workarounds could be done, though, such as having the enemy darker than your units
