Hi guys. I'm the guy that taught the Gameboy class at Wichita State University. Glad you think the class was cool. I had a blast teaching it. Unfortunately WSU didn't ask me to teach the class again so we weren't able to continue it after 2008.

@Jefftheworld: I'm curious what the silly mistake we made was that you refer to. Is it that we have full names of people who checked out the equipment? That doesn't seem like information that people can use for nefarious reasons.

Also thought I'd mention that the class final projects are on their assignments blog. The blog formatting got a little messed up on a botched Wordpress upgrade, but it is all still readable.

Final projects:

You can browse the other categories on the left-hand-side to see their other assignment submissions.

And we have a video of the final projects as well:

I'm probably just being paranoid, maybe I've just been reading too much 2600.  I just feel uneasy when unnecessary personal info is available online.  Especially because most of the those people probably don't realize their names are still publicly available there.

However, the course is an awesome thing to do. Welcome to the chipmusic scene.  Wanna be a hero here?  Program and release a nice music program!  If you need any ideas, we'd be able to give you a lot to think about.

Cool nontheless.

That's a kinda silly mistake, but there is a lot of good information on the site about getting a development environment set up:

http://cratel.wichita.edu/cratel/ECE238Spr08

I wish every college/university offered introductory programming courses that used hardware such as the Game Boy.
