Yeah, Ti-Boy does not work on your calculator, as it is ne of the newer brands :(
D: damn. Any news about it working on my model?

Nope, we are currently working out a great puzzle on how to get that to work.  There are many theories :)

HI and welcome here Sileem. So far, all theories involves internal calculator hardware changes that would have occured somewhere around 2007.

This is something common with Texas Instruments. In 2001, when the new TI-82 models came out (those with the ROM 19.0006), all old ASM games no longer worked on them. A new shell/kernel had to be written to emulate the old TI-82s to run them on the new ones. The opposite is true too with older ROM versions. For example, Digitan's game on United-TI, Robot War Project Darkstar, will not work on TI-82s that doesn't have ROM 19.0. As a result, on my old TI-82 16.0, Robot War crashed past the title screen.

Only difference, though, is that with the TI-82, I think it was more internal ROM changes than hardware change, but it could be because of hardware changes, too, because the hardware changed often, too.

if it needs to use less ram, couldn't you just remove some features like gray scale and sound?

The Gameboy itself needs more RAM than 16KB, and that's before I add in any of my actual emulator. So no.

I'd like to be able to help port this project to the NSpire. I'd like to keep in touch via e-mail unless you're already swamped with messages already. [email protected]

VISTA HELP: In case you didn't know, you may have to run the ROM creator in compatibility mode. 95 worked for me. XP didn't. I haven't tried the other 2.

This ROM creator should work better: http://ourl.ca/3662

And I'm not sure an Nspire port would be possible, or even have as much speed. I mean, running an emulator on an emulator never works too well... :P

What is it about the new 84s that isn't as good as the old ones? I'm going to buy an 84+SE soon, but I want to make sure I get a good one.

the theory is that the new ones have less undocumented RAM (stuff that you can't use without ASM) so some ASM programs don't work
