Dry run of the Programming the Nintendo Entertainment System talk that Levi D Smith gave at Codestock 2014 in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Writing NES Games! with Assembly!! by Christian Joudrey
I’d like to take you on a stroll down memory lane and dig into the internals of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) to figure out how it works. While we’re there, we’ll see how to build a game for the NES using 6502 assembly with the help of a few modern tools. We’ll gain a new respect for ’80s developers and an appreciation for the high-level languages we have today!
