I made a NES emulator in 15 minutes
Bisqwit
Bisqwit writes a NES emulator in C++ in about 15 minutes of tool-assisted, sped-up coding, narrated with captions. It shows an accurate emulator built with a compile-time generated 6502 instruction table. Part 2 covers compiling and running it.
HN programmers admire it as a clean, clever demonstration of emulator design and as the standout of a favorite programming YouTuber.
