As a matter of fact, the smallest GameBoy games are a hefty 1 megabits
(yes, I mean bits, not bytes), much larger than even the memory of the
TI-92 (70,000 bits free). While a scaled down version of one of the above
programs is possible, it becomes a matter of deciding which parts of the
game you feel can be removed and still keep the game playable.
