Carnegie Mellon Students Develop New NES Games

Posted by CowboyNeal on Monday May 17, 2004 @06:28AM from the blast-from-the-present dept.

dalangalma writes "Students at Carnegie Mellon University who took the student-led course 98-026: Game Development for the 8-bit NES have finished up their ROMs and made them available for download. Most of these ROMs were developed using NBASIC, which was written by their instructor, Bob Rost. These are some of the first new NES games developed in years, and best of all, the ROMs are legal! You can get the games and learn about the NES (and the software tools developed for this class) at the course web page. You can even start developing your own games!"

I wish that i had the money to go to carnegie mellon. I have to go to a school where the head of the computer science department thinks that working on video games is akin to whoring my computer science skills to the lowest common denominator.
