I don't think anybody did. Really, it's a total pain to use it for serious development, especially when you have to change your controllers between keypad and joystick all the time. The CC2 at 115K baud just totally blows it away.

 

As for debugging, I ended up writing my own monitor (linked in by including its asm source) that does a serial connection through the right joystick port. That was usable enough for me to fully validate the chain-checker in Tubes.

I second that motion, and third, and forth. Tubes is such a great concept. Hell I've said before even if it just had a way to die and some background music it would be good.
