This guy&#x27;s combo of hardware and software engineering is stunning.<p>That he then has the aesthetic capability to knock out a beautiful fucking box for the cartridge is just humbling.

An interesting reminder of what we lose when we extend copyrights ad infinitum.

Just my kind of things. That sort of retrofuturism, patching the old with just enough new to make it sexy.<p>Serious kudos.

Amazing - I still don&#x27;t fully understand how you manage to do rays on a tile based system, with so many textures to account for...

Starfox had a 3D co-processor too! <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Super_FX" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Super_FX</a><p>Nintendo really pulled off some impressive feats back in those days.

It&#x27;s crazy to remember that the GBC lacked even Mode 7, of which something comparable wouldn&#x27;t come to Nintendo handhelds until the Game Boy Advance. A full raycaster running on the Color, at a high frame rate no less, is a very strange sight.<p>I wonder just how wildly impractical it would have been to build such outboard hardware acceleration into a cartridge in 1998.

This is huge!!! I just pulled my super mario cartridge yesterday out of storage to test that it still works. I would love to get a copy when you are done.

He should seriously consider replacing the Wolfenstein content with his own stuff and release it as an independent title! I know I would love to see a new release for my GBC...
