A long time ago, I had an idea about games on a standard 8-digit calculator. I wonder if it is possible to hack a calculator into showing whatever you want that aren't the standard 0-9. If you don't know what I'm talking about, I made a mockup of a Calculator Game in bB. The only difference is that this would be on an actual calculator display and not on an Atari 2600. This would be really cool IMO and would design more games if it is possible to do this. (Just imagine that 8 is up and 2 is down and 5 is fire.) If it is possible, and something like this has been done before, please post a link or something.
