The TI did 16-color graphics, and could fooble more by dithering.

I can't think of any game from that time that wasn't ported over to the TI.
(The TI supported more than just BASIC as a programming language, BTW.  The
slick stuff was loaded using the "Editor/Assembler" cart)

Pitfall, Pacman, Popeye, the Helicopter game thing, I still have them all.
Anyone have an Expansion Box they want to sell?
