Looks nice. I wonder if those are coded in ARM assembly/C? I am curious if the HP 50g even has native ASM support or if it's just BASIC?

Let's hope that hp won't do a TI with nspire......

Well, at least if they can make BASIC running proportionally to the processor speed compared to the 39gII, then BASIC could be a nice alternative for most games, even better if the interpreter is higher quality and runs faster. However, some people will still want more freedom to access memory and stuff. They better not do the same mistakes as TI if they want a decent audience.

Responding to an old post but just for the record...
HP 50g does not have BASIC at all, although it is widely misstated on the net that it does.
The HP 50g is a descendant of the HP 48 Series. The 50g is based on the dedicated Saturn microprocessor from the 48 series but emulated on ARM.
The languages on the HP 50g are User RPL, System RPL, Saturn Assembly, and ARM assembly. ARM assembly is supported onboard (natively). I think Saturn assembly is also supported onboard but I don't remember.

I believe you are correct (in regards to saturn ASM). I also don't recall the 50G having BASIC, though I pretty much never use mine. Welcome to Omnimaga by the way! :D
-
Yeah, I was just wondering because I don't think I ever saw an ASM game for the 50g before. It would be fun to see this calc pushed to its limits.
-
I agree. I remember it was really high speced (at the time) when I first got mine. I made a post about it here, but there was pretty much no interest. I didn't have any luck finding info on it back then either, so I kind of just put it aside.

Actually the HP 50g speed is hampered by how the OS actually runs on a Saturn processor emulator layer, not directly as an ARM-written OS, so it's about 7 times faster than the 48g for the most part. The HP Prime, on the other hand, had an OS rewritten from scratch for the ARM processor and the processor is even faster, so there is a major difference (although the rewrite resulted in many glitches). ARM ASM on the 50g must be ridiculously fast too, though.
On the HP Prime you can graph almost everything instantly.
