This is an oldie but a goodie—just like CBS FM in New York—especially as school starts pretty soon for kids in the northeast. It’s step-by-step instructions on how to install games onto your TI-84 or TI-84 Plus Silver Edition calculator. The games aren’t too complicated, but they’ll help you get through physics or calculus class with some degree of sanity. That’s what we did way back in the crazy days of 2003-04—one kid downloaded Super Mario and passed it around the class.
None of us did too well when test time came around, as you might imagine.
2003-04?? Is that when you were in high school, Nicholas? Damn it, I’m really feeling old. In 1995-96, we had ALMOST atari-quality graphics in games like Tank Wars and text-based games like Drug Wars. Now you can play Mario!?
That seems like it would be a lot tougher to pull off while pretending to do something legit during class. . . .
Where did you get this mario game? A link would be nice. Thanks.
I’d like the link for that game too.
Here is a link to many TI Calc games including Mario Brothers, You can do a search.
