How many games can be stored on the Hackvision?

Postby JDraugr » Thu Jun 14, 2012 7:05 am

I wanted to ask how many games can be stored on the Hackvision?

Also, is it possible to increase the storage size any? Are there plans for a version with a microSD/SD slot for storage, etc...?

Thanks,
John

It depends on how much code and memory is required by the game. For Space Invaders, I was able to squeeze a simple Pong implementation into the same program. But Asteroids was too big to fit anything else.

No plans for additional storage. Just upload different games if you want to play something different.

If you load up a different game, does the high score saves get wiped too?

It depends on how the game author wrote their code. For the games I wrote (Space Invaders, Asteroids), the answer is no. The scores will be preserved.
