; Sprites are a tricky beast on the 2600.
; You only have two of them.
; They are 8 bits wide and 1 bit high.
; There's no way to position the X or Y coordinate directly.
; To position X, you have to wait until the TIA clock hits a
; given X position and then write to a register to lock it in.
; To position Y, you simply wait until the desired scanline and
; set the bits of your sprite to a non-zero value.
; Having fun yet? :)
