More Deer

Three Hundred Twenty Third Post: More Deer

There is a whole family of deer behind my house. They’ve been there 3 days now and are in no hurry to move on. I can get close to them, but would still need a zoom lense for a picture.

A learned that Tetris, the video game, was available for the Palm and Pocket PC. I don’t see why there aren’t more classic 8-bit and 16-bit titles converted. Bundle them at $30 for 30 games. Now that isn’t going to happen, but what about Rom’s for the Palm. There are books on programming for the Palm, but these things are involved and take some time to read through. But if a good programmer tried, they’d probably cram it in, in one week.

Did you know there were 2 versions of Tetris for the original 8-bit. One was made by Tengen (I did not look that up so it may be wrong) and the other licensed by Nintendo. The Tengen game had awesome graphics and great sounds. It was also a collector item during its time. People would steal it from the rental place and pay the fee. I remember reading that it selling for $300 to $400.

Well until I update the site... May the Creative Force be with You
