NES Music Emulated on an ESP32 Microcontroller @lixielabs #Nintendo #NES

Connor Nishijima at Lixie Labs brings us emulated Nintendo NES music using the inexpensive ESP32 and the Arduino IDE!

I’ve taken the chore upon myself to emulate the quirky Ricoh 2A03 APU from the Nintendo Entertainment System on an ESP32! (Using the horribly inconsistently labeled APU information at NesDev.com)

I’m sharing a library which now lets you take almost any NES music from http://vgmrips.net/ and play it on command with an ESP32 with nothing but a speaker and some wires.

The “Cartridge” library is here: https://github.com/connornishijima/Cartridge
