1 year ago Apparently some have ported it to small devices already. https://twitter.com/alvaroviebrantz/status/1518343016011943939?s=20
In particular using the wasm3_engine including to run things on the pi Pico.

Might not be the best way for the Neotron-Pico but shows the hardware itself can cope.

1 year ago When the OS gains loadable applications I suggest this is written as a loadable application. There's probably nothing we need to change in the design of the Neotron Pico to support this though.

1 year ago I think once that point is reached it would be a definite enhancement and would make the Neotron even more attractive as a retro computing target.
The one issue being the multiplayer support of WASM-4. Your previous comment on it not being a good idea to connect the Neotron to the web is quite reasonable but does limit multiplayer to local lan. However in that instance I'm not sure if WASM-4 can make the connections. It relying on WebRTC and using WASM-4 servers for STUN & TURN they may not have a local mode anticipated. In their dev tutorials you run a server which allows local network devices to join.(cool qr code joining method) So it may be a non issue.

Perhaps a useful future feature would be support for WASM-4 "carts"? https://wasm4.org/docs/
It targets retrogaming and can be run in small devices as well as online.
