It's not entirely true that the nes lacks multiplication and division, but that it's limited. There are 4 bitwise opcodes, ROL, ROR, ASL, and LSR which you can use to shift the bits left and right which can be used to multiply and divide bytes by 2.

[@NesHacker]

Indeed, I more meant "general arithmetic multiplication and division" such as a "mul" or "div" operation.

@@NesHacker One of the first things I wanted to do as far as NES coding projects were concerned was to "simply" count frames since poweron so I could get an accurate idea of how my video capture device interacted with the console(s). Which means having to deal with enough PPU stuff to be able to set tiles on the screen, and enough math stuff to be able to increment and display, at bare minimum, a 16 bit integer. I figure there's enough I can glean from your code to muddle through it.... now all I need to do is find the time...

[@milesdevinny5759]

I have a video request: a video covering the ins and outs of scrolling on the NES. From what I understand, you need to go through all sorts of hoops to be able to get scrolling in all directions. I've studied enough of the hardware to understand it can do general scrolling in one direction, but beyond that is a mystery to me. What makes bi-directional scrolling so hard, how is it accomplished, and what are the limitations to it depending on the mapper you're using? NESMaker is a good example of how this frustrated me a lot in the past. They released this tool allowing you to build your own NES games without needing programming, but anytime they were asked why can't they provide four-way scrolling, they pretty much just said it's not possible and those of us not in the know were left just wonder "But why?" I'd LOVE to see you cover this, and Vdubs also suggested teaching more about "NMIs and graphics programming." I think a video on scrolling and all the hurdles would be a great start.

[@NesHacker]

It's definitely on my list. 4-way scrolling *is* possible, I mean look at Super Mario Bros. 3... So I kinda wonder what's going on with NESMaker where they can't support it...

[@milesdevinny5759]

​@@NesHacker Yep, not to mention all those RPGs! I'm almost certain I remember the main dev of NESMaker mentioning they sort of limited themselves due to the mapper they chose, but I think I've even seen a plain NROM demo with 4-way scrolling, so I'm still confused.

[@Starwort]

@@NesHacker actually 4-way scrolling *isn't* possible. iIRC there's an RGMechEx video on how smb3 cheats but the gist is that there's a load of sprites on the left side of the screen to mask the fact that the tiles wrap around (and you can see colour glitches on the right hand side of the screen because of how NES colour mapping works) The NES has two scrolling modes: 2 screens vertically, and duplicated horizontally; or 2 screens horizontally, and duplicated vertically and SMB3 cheats by covering the left side of the wrapped tile

[@binguloid]

4 way scrolling is possible, whether by including extra RAM on the cartridge for 2 more nametables, or "cheating" like in Super Mario Bros 3 and a ton of other games

[@gabrielbarrantes6946]

[@daleatkin8927]

Great video. Not at all what I was expecting when I saw “NES Pi” in the vid title, but was interested anyways.

[@jroweboy]

Loved the video! Quick code note, when an interrupt is fired, the 6502 will push the current PC to the stack, and then will also push the current processor flags as well. This is why you use RTI as it pops both the processor flags and the PC. So anyway, all I'm trying to say is you don't need to do php/plp when an interrupt is fired since that is done for you.

[@NesHacker]

Yep, another viewer pointed this out as well, my bad! Thanks for watching and letting me know :)

[@Kuumba]

nice vid , I always try to stay away from floats and these type of stuff with 6502 since its always harder than on modern day processors . also not sure if you know this but you dont have to backup the Proccesor flags at the start of an interrupt , thats done automaticly . Otherwise RTI would be exactly the same as RTS

[@NesHacker]

I thought it might be the case that the interrupt handler auto stored the status register, but I was like five days into deep hacking on the game, very tired, and figured a couple extra cycles wouldn't matter so I could be "safe" and just throw stack push and pop in there. Fully computing all 960 digits takes quite a while even on the highest speed settings I could get on Mesen, and even minor issues were causing all sorts of havoc with the final digit results. So I was definitely being over cautious when handling the rendering here, haha.

[@proxy1035]

fixed point arithmetic would've also been an option, as it's functionally the same as floats but a lot easier on the hardware (and easier to implement). a lot of NES games actually use fixed point math to keep track of characters/enemies and their speed/acceleration and such! and honestly it did hurt my pride a bit that you didn't consider it because i made a fixed point library for cc65 (a 6502 C Compiler designed for these systems) for exactly these kinds of projects. :(

[@NesHacker]

Oh, sorry about that, no offense intended at all! I don't know why but I had it in my mind that there just *had* to be a way to compute the digits using only integer math, so when I found the spigot algorithm I kinda just went with that :)

Indeed, but... At 1920 digits I'd need 2 × 1920 × 10 / 3 = 12,800 bytes for the array, which is 12.5 KB. With that number I'd need to use something like the MMC5 to fit the data into contiguous memory (I think you can map WRAM on an MMC5 board into $8000+ range, though I've never done it). Also it would take *much much* longer to compute, haha.

Awesome, I've been meaning to do some non x86/non-desktop programming at some point, console is not a checkbox I've ticked yet, though I'm not quite sure I want to dive into assembly just yet, I'm working my way backwards. Though I guess the benefit of something like this is that its more pure, you won't have to disentangle some proprietary API such as what an xbox might have. Historically c wasn't used because it was slower? Is this still the case, how is c programming for something like the NES nowadays? Is inline assembly a good way to have the best of both?

[@NesHacker]

You can do NES programming in C or Assembly, choice is yours. But some of the rendering stuff and advanced techniques requires precise cycle timing, so you have to break down into assembly to do that. I mostly teach assembly on the channel cause I think it's fun and a more natural way to program NES games.

The Ricoh 2A03 and Ricoh 2A07 (those were the CPUs in the NES) are just 8 Bit CPUs with MOS 6502 instruction set running at 1.79 MHz. Oh boy, those CPUs used a technology node of 6 μm, today CPUs are below 6 nm (that's a factor of 1000 smaller). And the 6502 was just a stripped down version of the Motorola 6800 and it's the CPU also used in the Atari 2600, Apple II, Commodore 64, or BBC Micro, so of course it is capable of doing way more than running console games.
