TI-H: Re: Alternative to GB Emulation. EII MMODs with large TI ASM


Sor, but the SPinTerface is not a solution. It's only a "better" link 
port. It is nothing more than a link port with a power supply and a 
sturdier connector. It isn't the all purpose, fix everything, faster 
than hell port. I know way more about hardware than software, but I do 
know that the best way to run game boy games on the calc is to re write 
them from scratch. The hardware is too limited to emulate the game boy. 
It might be feasable to create EII MMODs to hold MASSIVE games and you 
just plug in a game cart, and then run a startup program on it and it 
would load the program piece by piece. This is the simplest solution. It 
isn't even worth the attempt to emulate the GB, since the hardware can't 
even come close to the GB.

Just a though!
