CHIP-8
PONG CHIP8.png
Screenshot of Pong implemented in CHIP-8
Developer Joseph Weisbecker
Type Interpreted programming language
Release date 1976[1] (original)
Emulated
WIP Note: needs accuracy testing and checking for licensing
For emulators for computers dedicated/built-in CHIP-8 support, see List of computers.
Note: The terms 'emulator', 'interpreter' and 'simulator' are used interchangeably by developers of interpreters of CHIP-8.

CHIP-8 is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker.

Most CHIP-8 interpreters are Homebrew emulators for their system.

Extensions to CHIP-8 have existed since the 1970s, With some conflicting with each-other.[2][3] Most extensions have limited support outside of the interpreter they were made for. The most supported extensions are S-CHIP and XO-CHIP.

For information on CHIP-8 extensions see: CHIP-8 extensions and compatibility by the CHIP-8 Research Facility
