Somebody hire this man!
1st electronic project (he's an experienced programmer)

Implements am emulated  6502 games computer / console on an ATMega328
(Arduino UNO but essentially just uses the uC)
2 ICs (uC + RAM)
Credible video out - not marvellous but usable.

   - Composite video black and white output, 256 x 192 resolution, 32 x 24
   characters (8 x 8 pixels font, code page 437 character set).

He says:

This is my first *serious* attempt to learn electronics. DAN64 is my first
project and it has been a discovery process during 3 months of my free
time. I had to learn a lot of things I didn't know much about, from basic
electronics to the details of the AVRs -and specifically the ATmega328-,
and a whole world of things in between such as signalling, protocols,
interfaces, modulation and demodulation, SDKs, EDA software, prototyping,
PCB fabrication, etc.



Wow.
