Hi TGOAG

(rokojosomo's bro/sis, right?)

and yeah I always wondered if such thing was possible before, considering the GB is several times slower than the TI-83+SE, processor-wise (the GB processor is a bit similar to 83+ z80). It will not be at 100% speed but it will still be awesome
Hmmmmm not full speed. Doen't matter. Still awesome for a ti-84.
(rojo's older bro. hehe he h8s that)

Hmm... maybe we could add it to both sections in the next version if I include a sample (homebrew) rom and 8xk?

My reasoning is that normally games in the calculator sections contain actual calculator executable files (e.g., 8xp, 8xk, 89p, etc.) for which there is software available on many computer operating systems (including Windows, Linux, Mac) to send it. But in this case, it appears that Windows is required in order to run the software to create a file that can be sent to the calc. So it could be frustrating for someone who does not run Windows to think they are downloading a file that they can use right away, only to find out that they first need to go find a Windows system to be able to do anything.

Also, it seems to be kind of a precedent (under most conditions, at least) on ticalc for files uploaded in the calc sections to contain at least one calc file ready to be sent to the calc.

Possibly... That's what was done for gb68k, although the included .89? files probably aren't of much use unless someone has ROMs to convert. (Although one nice aspect of gb68k is that it contains the source code for the PC converter, so even if someone didn't have Windows there's still the possibility of being able to port it for a different OS.)

I know these aren't exactly the most consistent decisions in the world. :P It can be tricky to know where to draw the line with new situations, and satisfy program authors while keeping the archives user-friendy for users. I'm open to suggestions, though.

Wow this is friggin awesome. After messing with the wabbitemu included I got it to work, played Metroid for a while.  Very awesome so far, keep the good work Calc84. I think this will be POTY-worthy when finished :)

Grayscale also appears to be pretty nice.

I am gonna post a news on the front page, with linked screenshot and links to the Youtube videos. The screenshot is incredibly huge, though (4.5 MB), so I'm gonna link it

Yeah, I guess you're going to have to go with Metroid or Kirby.
