I bought a Playstation Portable a few months ago and wanted to learn how to build programs for it.
Instead of just building some sample programs, I ported an Another World/Out of this World engine.

@8bitnews1 I'm not retired and I haven't won the lottery either. I've just been busy with life I guess 😅. Thanks for the sharing.

I've been working on a Z80 high-level assembler in my free time for fun and I've decided to put it on github: https://t.co/etuIFXwCHs

@masterlinkueibr NTSC allows for about 240 visible lines (PAL has even more), most games on the SNES opted for a 256x224 pixel resolution. So depending on the CRT and its settings you could see vertical bars.

Wanted to work with an AY-3-8910 sound generator I bought a while back and decided to make a video about it: https://t.co/gav6U2txfv

@RancidBacon Yeah it is a bit of work and unfortunately not my day job, still I wish I could update more often. Thanks!

Just wrote a blog post about a project I've been working on. Yet another video game console, this time FPGA-based:

Back to electronics (I hope), bought 2 TMS9918A Video chips and they look brand new and the text is oddly different on the two, could they be fake? 🤔

[InternalRegister @IntRegister]

@leiradel been there...

@leiradel @FlohOfWoe I don't know what you need exactly, but if you want to see how a Z80 works at the clock cycle level, you could use a VHDL simulator, for example, with something like the T80 cpu core which is a VHDL Z80 core. It should be accurate enough.

@retrohouruk @ZxSpectROM I would love to get a Neo Geo AES, but it's crazy expensive, not only the console but the games too

[InternalRegister @IntRegister]

@SmartykitE Thanks. And sure thing, you can reach me at internalregister(at)gmail

For those curious on how the video works on my console, I
finally finished writing the post about it:

I also wrote an online simulator as a companion for the post:

@SarahJaneAvory Happy Birthday!

@JohnKennedyMSFT The only reason this didn't happen to me was because I would always get car sick, so I couldn't play with my Gameboy in a moving car.

@shano002000 I use a microcontroller to serve as an interface between the CPU and the SD Card, the CPU just requests simple commands like "open file", "read file", etc. And the CPU puts the read bytes into RAM.

But using a ROM cartridge does make it a lot simpler.

@SarahJaneAvory I was curious, how do you know if your games are not too hard to beat but not too easy either.
Do you have get some people you trust playing them before release and tweak the difficulty depending on their input?

[InternalRegister @IntRegister]

A few people have asked when the post on my video game console's video system would be out.

It's almost finished, one of the reasons it's taking so long might be because a part of it will be interactive.

[InternalRegister @IntRegister]

@leiradel I've heard about Antstream Arcade on the GameHut youtube channel, it seems awesome.
Congratulations on your new job. 🙂

[InternalRegister @IntRegister]

@shano002000 Yes, I've actually already started writing it. I just haven't had much time for it lately.
I'm gonna try to finish it by next week or so.
Thanks for the interest 🙂.

Just wrote a new blog post, this time on how the CPU Board of my homebrew video game console works:
