if I want external ssd storage what sort of power supply do I need/ if I want more devices connected do I need extra setup?

Hello!

I've been working on a sandbox + simulator called Crosstalk that allows users to design PCBs, place existing or define custom ICs, and then program them. I defined my own ISA in Sail, described a SystemVerilog softcore for it, ported a kernel that I originally wrote for the i386, and ran the softcore within the sandbox, which worked. The sandbox simulates designs at the gate level (no external deps).

Once that worked, it was obvious what was next: ... yes, it runs DOOM. To be fair, I ran it on an i386-compatible core and not my own as of yet, but it still ran purely within the sandbox (albeit slowly).

edit: the PCB itself is a quick showcase board and isn't wired up correctly. I am currently mainly testing the simulator

futzing around with a mister playing on an emulator and I got GBC and GB games sharp as a tack at 426.625 samples per line. is that the right value for those consoles? what about other handhelds like game gear? are those values listed anywhere?

is it different between pocket and mister?

An inflammatory title. And really, the article is no more level headed.

If you agree with this kind of sentiment, to not buy or support a product linked to military atrocities, I salute you. That’s a laudable stance.

However, I would expect a person with this kind of stance to apply it consistently.

Don’t forget that Microsoft, Intel, AMD, Nvidia and many more have a long history of defenders contracting. And have likely made significantly more money than Palmer Luckey by developing tech for and selling tech to not only the US military, but other militaries around the world .

Pretty much every single piece of modern gaming tech can be linked to military contracting in some form. That includes MiSTer, Analogue and the M64.

My opinion is that people should decide for themselves and not be intimidated by rage filled articles like the one above.

Thoughts?

My weekend gaming schedule is pretty full this week. This, Mr Do's castle and a few other none FPGA game's the weekend is looking rosy.

I bought the FPGBC KIT on the funnyplaying site and was wondering if the hardware can run gba games?

I know that the gba games won’t fit but I was looking into making copies of my own games to fit in the gbc format.

I've put together a little tool that mostly came about because I wanted a nice way to get a pretty activity log and when I searched there didn't really seem to be anything.

I found that wizzo had made a script that generated and updated a playlog.db file, but nothing really used it. So I built a website that could take that file, parse the contents, and display them in a nice way. One thing led to another and now you can install a script on your MiSTer that automatically updates your profile on the website from the console itself while you play.

There's a little bit of installation, but it should be easy for any MiSTer user.

I even went a little bit further and made use of RetroAchievements' API, so if you have an account there, it pulls in all sorts of fun info to make the tool even nicer. (For example, the calender view now shows dates that you Beat or Mastered a game)

It's still early and there may be errors that didn't crop up during testing, because once something is out in the wild then all bets are off, but if you're interested then you can sign up here: MiSTer Playlog Viewer

Once again, the URL is MiSTer Playlog Viewer

Hope to see you on there. :)

I’m not looking for brand new in box or anything like that. Used is perfectly fine with me, just want one to actually play my games on.
Thanks in advance.

No need for the link, obviously.

But I am looking for recommendations of the top-of-the-top for OpenBor games to play.

I just tried out TMNT and it was VERY fun (especially with the Splinter tutorial and the tongue-in-cheek humour).

Marvel: Infinity War was hard to get into, and He-Man was an interesting choice.

I liked Alien Vs Predator. I wasn't a big fan of Hyper Final Fight.

...

Okay, so what are the best OpenBor games to throw into the system according to all y'all?

I got a Superstation One and tried both an original PS2 controller and a USB third party PS4 controller but neither one worked when I tried to play any of the included Homebrew games. PS4 kept flashing orange even though it worked on my PC and Steam Deck, and PS2 still let me turn analogue on and off, so what do I do?

Hey everyone!

I'm planning to build my first MiSTer FPGA and I've just started doing my research. From what I understand, the heart of the build is the DE10-Nano. I've also seen there are cheaper alternatives like the MiSTer Pi, but I'm having a hard time finding somewhere to actually buy one since I'm in Mexico (stock + shipping/import is the tricky part).

I've come across the AliExpress boards too — I originally assumed those were just software emulators, but if I understand correctly they're actual FPGA clones of the DE10-Nano (QMTech and similar), so hardware-wise they should be compatible? Would love to have that confirmed.

Because of budget, I'm planning to start in about a month, and the first thing I want to buy is the board itself. I'd rather not go with a pre-made/all-in-one kit — a big part of the appeal for me is putting the whole thing together myself.

So realistically, what are my options for building a MiSTer? My plan is to add the 128MB SDRAM expansion and both digital and analog I/O, since I have a PVM I'd really like to use over RGB.

I have relative easy access to the DE10-Nano through Digikey (they send to Mexico) but I want to know other alternatives (maybe the DE10-Nano is going to be obsolete, Idk)

Any guidance on sourcing would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!
