NES Assembly Video Series

Recommended Posts

Ok, so rather than creating a bunch of threads I'm going to just make this one to share and link to the videos I am making, coding some assembly. They are in a weird order so some simple stuff may not necessarily be at the beginning. Hopefully someone can be entertained and learn something along the way. Disclaimer: I am still learning myself, so I am not an expert. (join me as I make mistakes and fix them, lol) I also just like talking about this stuff to get my own thoughts in order and understand better. Plus, hopefully someone more experienced can correct me if I'm doing things really wrong.
