Hello!
My name is Nick (or NEWK). I'm new here, but I think I will probably show up here a lot so, get used to me. Anyway, I love the NES, adn I have been trying to leanr how to program it, so I have a few questions. First, if I want to program the NES, is there anything other than just plain 6502 assembly I have to know? I just want to make a simple demo game for now and move to harder things latter. and also, do I have to learn 6502 assembly at all to program the NES? I saw some neat 6502 compilers on this website, but will they work with the NES? Anyway, i hope you guys can help me. Thanks!

Yeah, you'll need to know assembly. The C compiler CC65 has some NES libraries, but they're said to be very sub-optimal. I don't know how to use it to find out.

I'd imagine you've found my site:

There's also a forum there, if you ever have any questions about the NES-specific stuff (PPU, etc.).

How about a CMU course? :D

I haven't looked at the lectures but it's probably good!
