I thought you and your customers would like to know about the Gameduino kickstarter. Gameduino connects your Arduino to a VGA monitor and speakers, so anyone who can write an Arduino sketch can create video games. It’s packed full of 8-bit game goodness: hundreds of sprites, smooth scrolling, multi-channel stereo sound. James Bowman, the project sponsor, has some great pledge rewards, including a “… 64-byte message burned into an easter-egg section of every Gameduino’s boot ROM. Enter the realm of the immortals (geek section). I’m hoping he gets funded and Adafruit starts carrying the Gameduino!
