Re: MiSTer single board concept

Your concept of this single board fpga based console isn't bad for those who want a SNES like-console with all cables, except controller ports, hidden (as long as those controllers aren't USB). I know you don't like "industrial" connectors like the VGA connector and while the SNES AV connector looks nicer, it's not a standard connector. ...

Re: MiSTer single board concept

I didn’t know that there was so much bilious shit here and among retro gamers. I answer people the way they treat me, I didn’t start it. They praise their swamp because they already bought this modular shit with DE-Nano and multisystems. I'm not interested in your meager, scanty worldview. But you will be the first to run to buy this board for 80-...

Re: MiSTer single board concept

It wouldn't make any sense to use a standard port like SNES AV then change the pinout, you would then need custom cables. Single board MiSTer clones are already in the works. We know for sure a handheld variant is being worked on that will be very sleek. I updated the video output, now it has all video standards at once, which are selected by swit...

Re: MiSTer single board concept

Personally I dont like it at all. Its reliance on a SNES controller front panel makes it virtually useless for my needs. At the moment you have drawn some pretty pictures, found a couple of pictures of components and that seems to be it. In the process you have been quite rude about the MMS system. Are your eyesight okay? Take a closer look, the g...

Re: MiSTer single board concept

the MMS made this idea a reality for me. wont help those concerned about cost but being able to plunk down a de-10 nano onto a header and getting everything above (and more) made it the right solution for me. It's a lie. The Multisystem looks almost as monstrous and it is still modular, inconvenient, large and expensive. The MS board is maximalist...

MiSTer single board concept

One board, no increasing cost of modularity, except for gamepad ports Minimalistic design, only the essentials, the best ports, no industrial connectors like D-SUB Ease of use, simple understandable form factor of a classic console All TV connection ports face backwards Ports of wired original gamepads look forward USB-C 3 in 1 Power/Video/DATA One...

Re: Ideas for a Lower Cost FPGA Board System Based On ECP5

Say ECP5 is more powerful than Altera in the old MiSTer? What systems will it support, will it be PS1, N64, Dreamcast? Will you be selling them? Do you have a store website or twitter? Will it have an Emulationstation shell? I like your boards. Please replace Micro-USB with Type-C.

Re: EmulationStation Interface for MiSTer and a NES Style Case

Will it run slowly even at 800x600p on a 4:3 CRT TV?

As far as I understand, MiSTer has the same blue menu with settings on Linux as RetroPie, they also said above that the DE10-nano has an ARM processor and this means that you can install the EmulationStation shell on it. I think sooner or later someone will do it.

EmulationStation Interface for MiSTer and a NES Style Case

theming_system.png Hello. I really like the EmulationStation interface, I consider it a lush interface ever created for a retro -game. I have long wanted to buy an RPi3-4 with RetroPie that has an EmulationStation shell, but the poor performance in SNES games repelled me and the lack of RGB output. I was very interested in MiSTer because it is har...
