Twenty Six Hundred
An Atari 2600 emulator in Rust
Overview
The best way to learn a new language is to build something. I decided to write this to learn Rust while simultaneously getting some experience writing an emulator. This is a self-paced project to explore emulation/simulation and Rust.
Project Status
This is currently a work-in-progress as I make my way through learning Rust and the internals of the Atari 2600 hardware.
- UPDATE 03-01-2016: I'm currently focused on emulation of the CPU
- UPDATE 03-16-2016: Working on implementing the various instructions of the 6507
