The latest iteration of Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. hits stores Nov. 21, but if you're yearning for a game that brings you back to simpler days -- like, say, when you were sitting in high school math class -- this version is for you.
A user called Hayleia at Omnimaga, a website dedicated to calculator- and PC-game programming, created a stripped-down version of Super Smash Bros. Melee for the TI-83 and TI-84. That's right: You can play Smash Bros. on your calculator.
Here's how it looks:

Right now, the game's only playable characters are Fox and Falco, but it's open source, which means you can tinker with the code. Hayleia's looking for help, too. The creator isn't going to add any more characters, but said players can create their own by modifying the code.
You can download the code, here; then upload it to the calculator with a USB, according to Hayleia.
