I wanted to see what this premier thing was all about - it's not something I'm gonna start using regularly. Just this time felt appropriate XD Also, if you want to submit for showcase video, or featuring on the website, fill this in! https://forms.gle/zegqonbDsgugkunW8

I came for the NES emulator. I stayed for the best explanation of HEX and bitwise operations ever.

Completing this project got me my first job in software. If you're wondering if this is worth seeing through to the end, it absolutely is. I had a board room of three interviewers looking through my personal projects, when I showed them my NES emulator they had a LOT of questions. When I noticed one of the interviewers had Legend of Zelda tattoos, I knew I was in.

"The Picture Processing Unit, also known as PPU, sometimes called the Pixel Processing Unit... by me... accidentally." Comedy gold right there

That was the most intense "fetching a thing out of the attic" sequence

I just want to say to those who are watching the series for the first time , don’t be ashamed of rewatching the episodes. The amount of information about the NES architecture is huge and hard to grasp by watching it just once

A sign of a good teacher is engaging someone who already knows the topic. ...Subscribed.

Your skill in programming might come in 2nd compared to your skill in teaching. Thank you so much for all of the videos throughout the years

That bit-field struct is pretty dope.

The first time I played an NES game way back when it was released, the thing that went through my mind at the time was "I want to extract the data from this cartridge and get it to work on a computer."

your little talk about the NES and how much it means to you and that photo in the end made me want to go and hug my own NES that i've owned for 30 years now. that photo of you as a child might as well have been me. years and years of fun memories of the NES playing duck hunt with my dad who kept getting angry at the dog when he missed all the ducks, playing with my mom, playing with friends, seeing the joy on a friend's face as a full grown adult finishing super mario bros for the first time ever. "the NES made me who i am today" 100% accurate. thank you for the fantastic education

me: "oh building an emulator would be cool!" me 20 minutes in: o_O

I scared my gf from busting out laughing(Lying in bed at night) when you hit the power button on the console

"hello let's make a nes emulator" beautiful introduction!

infinite respect for the rogue legacy sounds in the begining

All NES awesomeness aside this was a really great explanation of bitwise operations. Really helpful thanks

this channel is every nerd/programmer dream , thank you for the content

Born too late to discover the world, too earlier to fiscover the universe (I guess), at the right time to watch this amazing youtube channel. Congrats for another fascinating video! :)

2:15 holy cow, I remember doing this, it actually worked sometimes!
