In this video, I explain everything you need to get started playing and making games on your TI-84 calculator! With both the personal experiences and comical reactions I share, this is so much more than just a tutorial!

IMPORTANT: Thanks to some lovely commenters, I was made aware that certain features necessary to get games working on your calculator are no longer part of the newer OS. Check out these updates if you think you are affected:

If you’re only here for the tutorial, feel free to skip over the jokes, and if you’re only here for the jokes, feel free to skip the tutorial. There should be something in this video for everybody, but not every part may appeal to you, and that’s okay! Chapters are provided for your convenience.

The games I showcase (including the formatting on mine) will only work on a TI-84 CE Plus calculator, but there are black and white versions of all of them available on any TI-84 model. I won’t link to those, but you can find them with a quick Google search, and the process of using the TI-Connect software and PRGM buttons should be roughly the same as outlined in the video.

Mobile gaming... but better!
