I'd like to see someone play DOOM (or any game, really) using that flip disc screen!

  I was thinking of Bad Apple!![1], but maybe that's too niche. 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtutLA63Cp8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtutLA63Cp8

    You made me wonder just how often Touhou is even mentioned on HN, so I did a quick search and... less than 15 results! (not counting dupes). Niche indeed...

      That seems weird. Bad Apple is up there with doom in terms of "make it run", and a few high profile-ish hackers seem to enjoy touhou stuff (drew devault off the top of my head)

    Not niche enough :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NXSMdUH_Cg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NXSMdUH_Cg

    The first thing I dig in the article was a search for "bad". Glad I'm not the only one.

    I wonder if you could have it play the music as well by the right timing of flipping, just like how the Floppotron works.

    Someone on reddit did it: https://www.reddit.com/r/arduino/comments/1rcs8dc/flipdot_display/ https://www.reddit.com/r/arduino/comments/1rcs8dc/flipdot_di...

  Tetris seems like a good fit -- given the frame to frame changes are minimal adjacent pixels, the responsiveness should be acceptable
