Title: CHIP8 'n' Dale - An adventure in writing an emulator in .NET Core.
Facilitator: Dale Nunns
Description:
It all starts with the question, I wonder how do emulators work? and ends with a deep dive into the 1970's CHIP-8 gaming platform and writing an emulator for it. All under the pretence of learning the .NET Core tooling.
If you're curious about emulators, old gaming systems or want to listen to tales of the old days when 4KB was a lot of memory this is the talk for you.
