Command Module Listing


The list below shows most of the cartridges produced for the TI-99 console. I don't assume that this list is complete, or that all information is totally correct. I will be adding to the cartridge and manual graphics as I get them. Click on the manual to get a view of the front cover of the manual, and the TI monitor to see a screen shot.

I have also created a more simple page without graphics that should be printer friendly. To view it go here.

For information on the Rarity listing go here.

Thanks to Eric Bray, for suppling the GROM, ROM, and Address data!!

Reviewer: Matthew Hagerty - TIer since 1983

The Editor/Assembler allows you to write assembly language programs on the 99/4A itself. Prior to the E/A, all software for the 99/4A was written on an expensive TI Mini Computer with a 99/4A emulator, and I think Tombstone City was the only (TI produced) software ever written on the 99/4A itself. The E/A includes an editor for writing assembly code (or any text documents really), assembler, linker, loader, and debugger. It also includes a very thick (about 2 inches) reference manual that covers using the cartridge programs, the 9900 instruction set, 99/4A internals such as memory organization, GLP functions, accessing the 9914 VDP, sound programming (9901?), speech synth programming, and example code. It also comes with the full source code to Tombstone City! This was a very kind act on TI's part, and seeing how they wanted to totally control software licensing for the TI, to this day I can't figure out why they included that source code? But I'm sure glad they did! The E/A requires the PEB with a floppy disk and 32k RAM expansion module
