"Amazing Things One Can Do With JS and the NES" by Michael Matuzak

This talk basically went through the speaker's process of creating 8-bit music on the NES, with sound demos thoughout.

(video, code repo)

  • Goal: make it easy to write music for NES
  • Project parts:
    • ASM sound engine
    • JS API
  • NES has 2 square wave channels, a triangle wave, and a "noise".
  • NES is monophonic, so we have to use arpeggios to mimic chords.
  • Future
    • NES assembler in JS
    • web UI tools
