• http://www.xgamestation.com/ The XGS is a video game system development kit based on the SX52, SRAM, D2A and a few support components. Lots of 2D games have been written for it (Tetris, PacMan, Pong, etc..) and also some 3D games! Pole Position, Maze and others. Lots of source code in the Games download page. The unit is $199 and the SX key has been available as an option for $20 with that purchase.
