The next game challenge on #MiSTerFPGA Discord is Elemental Master for the Genesis/MD! This top-down shooter has some horror themes that I thought would be fun for a Halloween challenge this year. Single credit score challenge starts now and goes until November 1st. Have fun!

We’ve been working on this the entire year and our first FPGA handheld is almost done. Plays GB, GBC, and GBA carts. Huge FPGA to power cores up to PS1 and N64. Up to 4K HDMI output via an affordable dock. Unbeatable latency. Open source. From $1_ _ at launch.

It's a shame the FPGA emulator scene is flooded with AI slop, but it won't stop my work. I'm still passionate about boards and chip architectures, because software analysis and measurements have limits. I just want to automate tasks that don't need humans so I can contribute more

CV1k core was the first core I built using AI agents. I plan to write an article later explaining how I used it to handle the hardware architecture and two sub-projects, how I worked with the actual hardware, and how I was ultimately able to push the MiSTer FPGA to its limits.

Recorded a video of RC de Go! on #MiSTerFPGA's PlayStation core, using the Hori ZeroTech RC racing controller: youtu.be/Zn0HOOYcOzQ Awesome game with a great soundtrack by Zuntata. At the end I show my only clear of the championship mode's insane Special 1 course.

Game designer Richard Garriott has confirmed he will soon regain the rights to the influential RPG series Ultima from Electronic Arts. "It means I could re-release the earlier Ultimas, but it also means I could sequel them." vgc.news/news/richard-garrio…

Anyone with a Logitech G920 Racing Wheel willing to help with a test? My wheel adapter is missing some info about this wheel, to fully support it.

The #FMTowns #Marty core on the #MiSTerFPGA is super playable and also runs regular Towns software that exceed it's normal ram and CPU specs. MIDI works too for those with an MT-32Pi

The state of OSS: 20+ years of incredible work just to be fed into a slop machine for someone's 5 minutes of fame.
"Ridge Racer V PC Port" Featured image has the exact same texture bug as PCSX2.

Recorded a couple Commodore 64 demo scene productions on #MiSTerFPGA today- first up is Viva Las Vegas by Censor Design: youtu.be/t7oam0pTSUE?si=KxCu… This one has some very nice effects with great use of the C64 palette. The spiral scroller with cylindrical core is awesome.
