Total Posts: 2 | My friend and I both have TI-84+ SE calculators, and we don't know how to play multiplayer. The games we have been trying to play have been Bubble Bobble and Slimeball. We both run MirageOS. Could someone please explain how to set up and run a multiplayer game? |

Consult each game's readme file for details, but the general method for playing multiplayer, multicalculator games for those that support it is simply hooking the calcs up with the unit to unit link cable and selecting multiplayer mode on both calculators. |

Edit | I'm pretty sure that Slimeball is run on a single calculator. As for bubble bobble, I think you just hook it up, have both players select multiplayer, and play! |
