Back in my high school days the pinnacle of graphics calculator gaming consisted of games like Super Mario, Snake, Tetris, Tanks and some other crafty games coded in assembly language.

Over the years calculators have become more advanced, Omnimaga demonstrates Texas Instruments' TI-Nspire calculator is capable of running a port of Doom. It's still a beta version though, more work is necessary to make it work because as for now, the game crashes after running for about 20-60 seconds.
