Compile error

[michimac]

I just got my GD2 and can run Hello World, blobs, fizz and jpeg. However, when I try to run simon, I get a compiler error. Attempting to run other games results in similar errors.  I'm using a Sparkfun Redboard and have also tried a Diecimilia.

Arduino: 1.6.6 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"

Build options changed, rebuilding all

Right this is a problem with the Arduino-specific preprocessing in 1.6.6

I suggest using version 1.6.5 instead - it works fine.

Thank you! I knew it had to be something simple.
