Grand Theftendo is a new homebrew game for the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). It is a tribute to Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto III running on the 8 bit, 256x240 resolution, 2 bit colour x 2 bit palette, 1.79 Mhz system, written entirely in 6502 Assembly Language!
Purely a project of my spare time, it has progressed very nicely. I had kept the development of it quiet until the very end of October 2004, in which GTA: San Andreas, and more importantly, GTA: Advance were released. After the release of GTA: Advance, a top down take on Liberty City, I decided there was no better time to show the world my efforts. It will still be a while before it's finished, but enough is done that it has something to show for itself.
Here you will find information on the game, it's history, and how it is being developed. From the paper to the PC, to the NES, it's come a long way since it began. Read further for all of the details!
Not only will the game be available as a free download when it is complete, but as will the be the development tools. If you have the programming skills and dedication, you will be able to make your own NES games as well!
All of the code, graphics, etc. are done from scratch by me. When it's released, the dialogue will be all original, and the character's names have been changed. I did not reverse engineer anything to create it, trace any graphics, convert any audio, it's all original. Grand Theftendo is simply a spare time, fan project for fun, to pay tribute to Rockstar Games and Grand Theft Auto.
