QGA is a new game system designed to be emulated by everything.

I will post the QGA documentation in a few days. I started making a emulator in QBASIC, anyone could make emulator for other system, such as Nintendo DS, SuperFamicom, GP2X, GameCube, iMac, palm-pilot, etc.

Here are part of it:
* Has 9 buttons: Up-arrow, Down-arrow, Left-arrow, Right-arrow, A, B, C, Select, Start
* Has a display with 16 rows and 32 tiles per row
* Has 128 character-set, mostly ASCII, but also custom fonts (the QBASIC emulator does not support custom fonts and will display only ASCII)
* Monochrome display and highlightable tiles

Why not just use an existing specification of a system to be emulated by everything? I'd say let's standardize on the Nintendo Family Computer, also called Nintendo Entertainment System. Either that or J2ME MIDP.

The generalized assembler can be downloaded on http://zzo38computer.cjb.net/gasm.zip
You need PHP to use this.

QGA can be downloaded on http://zzo38computer.cjb.net/qga/qga.zip but I do not have time to write the documentation. There is 1 example of menu. See if there are any more bugs in this software.
