Weirdness: Now You Can Play Super Smash Bros. on a TI-83/84 Calculator

Oh that's supposed to be falco...I thought it was earthworm jim lol

I'm more excited about this than smash wii u

Problem? :>

Haha if I was in high school still I would totally be all over this. I remember somebody in my Calc class would play a 007 shooter game on his TI-84

Speaking of bit monochrome devices both Flatzone stages from the Smash series are set to return in the Wii U version

Wouldn't Mr.Game&Watch be easier to put in?

Well, I guess I know what I'm doing in math tomorrow...

Damn, just recently got a TI-Nspire. But hey, maybe it'll get a port

Is this the replacement for mobile games?

Well, looks like I know what I'm doing in Calculus

Dammit, the first Smash Bros. game to hit calculator form and we already got clone characters.

Anyone know exactly how I should go about putting the files onto my calculator?

Poor us nSpire CX owners...

Cancelling my preorder for Smash WiiU and selling my WiiU. [/sarcasm]
In all honesty it looks rather nice.

Coolio calc game tho i am surprised they didn't do kirby yet. Also does anyone think nintendolife will report on ucraft no longer being wii u exclusive.

School of hard sums.

Well, that's interesting. Too bad I have no access to these nerd calcs, would be an interesting thing for the breaks.

@Gridatttack I'm with ya! ^_^

@Guitardude7 Not everyone who prefers Melee is automatically an elitist. Maybe he just knows what's best?

W-What?! That's it! I'm canceling my Smash Wii U pre-order!

Well, I only have a 85 and an 89, sigh.

@Kaze_Memaryu

"Not everyone who prefers Melee is automatically an elitist." You're right. If they aren't elitists then they're wanna-be elitists: people who subscribe to a game's popularity just because there is a competitive scene for it (see Street Fighter).

Someone can like Melee most, but as a game it's a barebones glitchfest...if that's the best Smash Bros. then "FF VII is the best JRPG eva!!11...please remake it because I hate it too much to play it anymore...still the best though!!!1"

This seems like a lot of wasted effort.

Wow. That's pretty cool how someone is able to do that. Good for them.

Better than the real thing.

Do alot of people still play calculator games in high school? They were really popular when I was in middle school and high school but TVtropes claims that smartphones killed them off.

still a better game than call of duty advanced warfare

@R_Champ Oooooooo...kay? I don't see your point at all. I play Melee instead of other Smash games because it's the most balanced one, simply. And many others preferred it over Brawl because Brawl had RNG, and that's, quite frankly, a borderline criminal thing to have in a fighting game. And because it was slow.
Whether it's the best or not is subjective, like it or not. I'll take it over any other Smash game simply for not giving people any pity points.

@Guitardude7 This might help...

I'll wait for the physical copy to come out

Wow, this is impressive! The only thing I ever got working on my TI-83 was Drug Wars.

@Swiket LOL I remember playing Block Dude in High School. My buddy from work also had a badass Tetris port that for some reason wouldn't let me transfer over to my Calculator even with the link cable.

doesn't surprise me, I had Mario, Zelda 1 and "Duckhunt" on my TI-83+

@Swiket I dunno, man. That was fun, but I remember playing Super Mario Bros. 3 on one of those calculators. It even had a level editor!

Unlike my beloved TI-82 that I first taught myself how to program on, I still have my TI-89 around. I wonder how incredibly slim the chances of a port are...

Who needs 3DS and Wii U when we have
Super Smash Bros. For TI-83 and
Super Smash Bros. For TI-84

@Swiket Best Game

Wow I still have my T84 that played Super mario bros., but now smash. That's amazing. Now I own a Ti Nspire Cas and it is color. I'm more interested in conversions, and quick calculations. The graphics on that thing are good. I wonder what Smash would look like on my Npsire.

I remember I had Phantasy Star Online for my calculator. Except it wasn't online and only had the forest area (and it was top down view), but I still found it impressive.

@Guitardude7 If you think Brawl is balanced, you seem to miss the point of balancing. Melee had its own inconcistencies, but barely any really overpowered characters, and every other Smash entry has proven to be far worse.
Smash 64 had Samus as the all-killer, 'nuff said. Add to that the insanely floaty controls every N64 game had, and it's down.
Random tripping, Meta-Knight, Ice Climbers chaingrabs - Brawl was a mess, competitively speaking. It favoured casuals, and that was the biggest mistake.
And Smash 4 has Mr. Peepers, Shulk, and Bowser Jr. with their insane range-damage ratio that pretty much renders their light weight a non-issue.

I won't deny Melee being dated by now, but balance-wise, it still serves as the prime example of the Smash series - the only one get it majorly right.

I'm honestly surprised he made Fox and Falco when he had Game & Watch and other hyper-retro characters to work with to fit the primitive feel of the game and 'system'

Game & Watch v. 8-bit Mario, Pikachu, DK, etc. would be pretty rad, if I do say so myself

My TI-84 has never seemed more useful!
I'm basically doomed for next year now, since I'm planning to improve my maths mark...

@TheItalianBaptist I love Earthworm Jim...specifically Clay Fighters 63 1/3. I miss that game so much.

I needz it. :F
