Comment on Writing a Program in Pokemon Blue

Comments

This was my favorite part of playing around with old Pokemon games. It's actually unfortunate you can't do them in the newer games

I think it's mostly because old games written in ASM, while newer ones in C/C++.

More importantly, new hardware has proper memory protection, so instead of cool tricks you just get segfaults...

Writing an entire game in ASM must be a pain.

What are you implying?
