Slightly related, but one of my favorite personal achievements in high school was replicating the first year's final exam C++ project on a TI-89's Basic interpreter. Spent hours ignoring lessons in other classes while I
perfected it before showing it off to my teacher. If I recall correctly, it had assembly as well, which is how Tetris and SMB clones and Phoenix, the Doom clones,... And OS shells were coded. Good times. This was over 20 years ago and that interpreter was slooooow, but functional. Assembly could do 8 shades of gray and 60 fps.
Well,.then hormones and ADD took over and I can't still can't code worth crap. but I do like reading about it on HN, so thanks.
