I've found so much info on this site it's awesome, but i'm gonna ask a somewhat general question.
basically what I want to do is simply create a rom that spews out the text of Allen ginsberg's poem 'howl'. (sounds crazy i know, might show it in an art gallery) either one line at a time or maybe a text box that scrolls up with three or four lines of text in the box (like a character dialog in Dragon Warriror or something) not my concern right now since this project is in it's infancy.
I just did a character count for the text and it's 12487 characters with spaces. eventually I'd like to put this on a cart (not sure how yet) but is 12000+ text characters too much to fit on a standard cart, it certainly doesn't sound like a lot based on all the other info that games contain. any thoughts?
Thanks
