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)

Well then... I'm speechless... looks like I will just have to invest some money into getting a TI-NSpire  :P

I tried to get it at around the same speed - but who knows how fast the Nspire emulator runs at this point. I'm not going to make any assumptions about speed until I see it on hardware.

Edit:
Actually, I was able to get the Nspire emulator running in translated mode now since I changed a certain part of my code, and it runs... really fast. I don't think there should be any worries :)

Awesome! I wonder if it would be easy to make emulators for other systems, too? (Altough the lack of colors might make some graphics a lil hard to see in some games)

Of course for now I would focus on both TI-Boy SE and the TI-Nspire GB emulator, though :P

Well, I've added support for the window tilemap (so status bars and menus work now), and sprite/tilemap priority (so Mario's sprite goes behind the pipe rather than in front of it, for example).

And also, I've begun support for the special lcd effects, which is something that TI-Boy could not do:

Wow awesome.

I am wondering, would it be possible in TI-Boy SE too? Or is it simply just beyond the hardware limitations?

Hmm... I'd say no. Drawing anything more complicated than a simple tilemap would probably be too taxing. (I would have to keep looking up the same tiles over and over, and it would just get messy)

Omg D:
If more programs will be made for it, Nspire is going to be the primary calc? D:
altho for non advanced programmers it's probably less hard to make something decent at a 84+

Yeah this emu looks amazing. Back in high school I was actually part of a testing team in my Statistics class. I so wish there was something like this around when we were testing it out for a month. Then again, Nspire wasn't even out then...

Oh, and the lcd special effects also fixed the second half of the Zelda cutscene:

At school, almost nobody cared about calcs or their interest towards them was very short lived. Some people played my old games for a while and that's about it. They were done with calc gaming a few months later. Even if they had more interest, the TI-Nspire was not even out back then either, plus, even the 84+ wasn't out yet when I was still in hi school.

@Calc84maniac, cool to see you fixed them :)

Btw, on the screenshooting topic, I hope Goplat releases a workaround to make screenshots of gameplay :) (altough if you can find an AVI to GIF convertor and use CamStudio to do animated screenshots this should do the trick too)

There are 2 kids in the entire school that has n-spire. they have no idea how to work that thing, so usually they change into 84+ keypad to do their math.

Also, I wouldn't like to own n-spire since they are horrible at programming. Unless someone makes new OS that will completely change that and allows BASIC program to be awesome, with its native grayscale and huge screen

I know it is really good for math tho, my friend bwang wrote an entire symbolic manipulation engine that would do things like integrate and derive and expand indefinitely.  It was pretty cool, and all writen in basic.  Its to bad nSpire doesn't support any kind of loops :(

No loops...
That dosn't sound like it's easy to program.
