An NES CPU compiled into stock Qwen3.5 weights so the model can emulate NES games.
The nesformer project has compiled the NES 6502 CPU, its work RAM and cartridge ROM into the weights of a stock Qwen3.5 model, with every value computed by a compiler rather than trained. The model predicts the CPU's execution log token by token while a host program handles graphics and input; test games match a conventional 6502 emulator frame for frame. It builds on Qwenputer, reusing its compiler and Gated DeltaNet state as machine memory.
