MOVE is the name of a Super FX instruction and macro instructions that moves the value of a register or immediate value into another register or RAM.

The ALT0 state is restored.

Syntax

MOVE Rn, Rn'
MOVE Rn, #xx
MOVE Rn, (xx)
MOVE (xx), Rn

MOVE R_n, R_n'

MOVE R_n, R_n' as a GSU instruction transfers the value from R_n' to R_n. The opcode is strictly speaking an alterantive execution of TO, namely when the B flag is set i.e. a TO is executed immediately after a WITH. The register of WITH R_n' is the source and the register of TO R_n is the destination (for this reason, it is safe to assume that the transfer happens from S_reg to D_reg).

As such, the execution of both codes are identical:

; R0 = 52BAh
WITH R0
TO R13
; R13 also is now 52BAh

; R0 = 52BAh
WITH R13,R0
; R13 also is now 52BAh

Example

Let:

R₁₄ = 4983h
R₈ = 9264h

when MOVE R₈, R₁₄ is executed:

R₈ = 4983h
