I played with a Basic emulator for the first time on a Nintendo 3DS. That’s when the book 10 Print came out. The full title of the book, “10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10”, was a line of code written for the Commodore 64. As a kid who grew up with a Family Computer, BASIC language has a special place in my heart. I was eager to see this line of code in action but didn’t have a working setup of Commodore 64 nor Family Computer with me. That’s when I found out a BASIC emulator is available on Nintendo 3DS.
10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10
The newer version is available on Nintendo Switch and is more powerful than ever. I want to have BASIC Christmas! There is a specialty keyboard made for programing BASIC available on Amazon Japan. If you need to plug more than 1 USB into your Nintendo Switch, you need HORI’s new portable USB hub, also available on Amazon Japan. It’s time to get in touch with my roots with newer technology again.
