Consoles never were open platforms, but besides that it's not a big deal. Get yourself a compiler/assembler/whatever and adequate documentation for the system of your choice, set up a source code editor and a project + makefile and an emulator. Then you are ready to go.
There are groups for all kinds of older systems in the internet and most of them have some development tools. Retro programming can be an inexpensive hobby.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

I've been using paint.net (pretty damned good, for the price) to clear blank space out of screenshots, to make them more manageable, but I was getting annoyed at having to mouse-click buttons to switch between the select tool and the move-selection tool, so I decided to look for keyboard shortcuts.
They'd nefariously hidden them in tool-tips on the buttons (the first and last place I looked), so I spent a somewhat worrisome hour typing nothing but S & M, and hoping that this machine isn't sending a keylog to ms, for them to use in directing advertising at me (it's weven, but you never know what little extras they include in what they define as security updates).

Advertising is too unpersonal, but we probably could arrange something for you

Not for me. If I ever had wanted to, I could have had that many years ago. Who knows where she is now.

Their problem. When I met her, she complained that her father had refused to teach her how to shoot with a H&K G3 battle rifle.

I didn't want to use another name... I do know he doesn't get mad on such a comment as mine... but choosing a relative's name by mistake... no thanks, that's a risk I prefer to avoid
