"Bad Apple" on dragon 32?

Post by lukeoftheaura »

Something that seems to be somewhat of a common project for older and more limited computers/consoles is porting a version of the music video "Bad Apple!!" To these systems.

It's been done for IBM PC Compatibles,the c64,the spectrum, and many other systems, including the ST, CPC, and tons more

Has this ever been done for the dragon before? Not sure if it'd be possible due to the limitations of storage for the dragon now I think about it.

Think it's been done for the CoCo using the large capacity and fast streaming of data from a CoCo SDC or similar.

Not sure I remember seeing anyone try it using only original hardware...

Interesting. I wonder if this would be possible with the dragonMMC.

The Coco version is really a CoCo+ version, as it relies on the SDC and also and upgraded 6309 processor with the TFM instruction to get a high framerate...
