Emulation - What next?

sg57 · Post by **sg57** » Wed Oct 11, 2006 4:22 pm

Ive written a Chip 8 interpreter thanks to the many useful documents on its processes... I enjoyd creating it since its just a rush seeing what wasn't meant to be done, actually done :)

So, does anyone have any recommendations as what to do next? Im still a novice at emulators as like I said, I needed the pretty detailed documentations ;) So, what Im really asking, is whether there is anything similar to the Chip 8 or somewhere in the ball park, that would both help me develope further emulation skills, as well as the system being somewhat 'game' assosciated (i dont want to port a CPU only, unless along with it comes 1 game or so...).

OH and links to ANYTHING you think would help my emulation methods, or have sample emulators, or lists of opcodes for a relatively easy system to emuatle, etc. Just anything you think will help me develope good emulation techniques, as well as a fun ride along the way ;)

Thx for anything!

How much does ARM differ from MIPS?
I guess quite alot...
