Just as Max can vouch for the USSR, I can/cannot for Taiwan. They've got good heads on their shoulders, but they think that it's American not to use them. That will be their downfall. Tim D. Hotze

How Do You Program Nintendo Games?

Tim D. Hotze said: >Well? How DO you program Nintendo games. Do you need to compile? >Or is it more like BASIC? Is it done in any specific language? > Just asking... The NES (unless I still half asleep) executes 6502 code. The Super NES is 65816. I think the GameBoy is Z80 (I've never programmed on it). And the N64 uses a 4000 series MIPS processor (4300 or 4400 I'm not sure)(I've never programmed it either). You could write code in 'C' if you have a cross compiler. On the N64, I'll bet that most of the programming is done in 'C' (maybe 99%) because there you are using Libraries that handle all of the low level stuff. ========================================= Doug Coward dcoward(a)pressstart.com Senior Software Engineer Press Start Inc.

Well? How DO you program Nintendo games. Do you need to compile? Or is it more like BASIC? Is it done in any specific language? Just asking... Tim D. Hotze

If you are looking into a future of programming video games then check out www.digipen.com (I think that is it). I visited them once and was very impressed. -Enrique!

What format is a VAX 8800/8700/8550/8500 bootdisk in?

by DSEAGRAV＠toad.xkl.com

I just got my hands on a console refrence for the above, and it had a 5.25" disk in the back. It's labeled "WAFI". (APparently the machine name). How can I see what's on it? I did a "MOUNT/FOREIGN DK0: B:" from PUTR, and it doesn't recognise the format... -------
