Not going to happen, but one can dream - Sega System 32, Sega Model 1, Dreamcast, N64

Hi,

My first attempt to port a Sord M5 personal computer. https://github.com/tdlabac/SordM5_MiSTer/tree/master

of course the PS1

Hi,

Thanks for that. I will test it for sure, that looks very cool!

Can I suggest you open a new thread to make a proper annoucement? That way you may get more visibility of your work.

- DEC Vax

Mmmmm VAX would be nice, though trying to get the OS could be problematic .. I think you have to register for it..


NEXT computer I think was talked about before but the conclusion is its not yet do-able probably just over the line of what the FPGA in the mister can do.. That said there is always NextStep 486 but the current A0486 core is SX only and NextStep needs a full 486 with fpu..

Intellivision

Exists .. not currently official .. called INTV ...

Doesn't count. Immature and not under current development.

IDK works perfectly for me .. I have no complaints .. I think the crux of the issue is it has bios hard coded in .. the dev made some comments about it.. but I do think the development has slowed down .. would be nice if they released the sources so others could work on it, make it official ..

Sadly the Hobbyist Programme no longer provides VMS and Layered Product licenses for VAX architecture. HP sold OpenVMS to another company (VSI, VMS Software Inc.) who are only maintaining the AXP and Itanium versions.

The software installer packages aren't *too* hard to get hold of, and some disgruntled folks in the hobbyist scene released a license generator a few years back. PM if you want to know more

My MicroVAX 3100/30 is quite happily running with these since my kosher HP licenses expired.

NEXT computer I think was talked about before but the conclusion is its not yet do-able probably just over the line of what the FPGA in the mister can do.. That said there is always NextStep 486 but the current A0486 core is SX only and NextStep needs a full 486 with fpu..

There's also the option of running NeXTSTEP on a SPARC core:
viewtopic.php?t=545

I'd love to see the m68k support extended to '030 with MMU and FPU, as that would unlock access to many more classic OSes (although this has been somewhat contentious with the minimig maintainers in the past, I believe).

Console-wise, I'd love to see Dreamcast, but appreciate that's highly unlikely due to its complexity. I'll hold out hope for the Saturn and Jaguar cores that are in varying degrees of development.

Arcades:
- Sega Y Board, for Powerdrift and Galaxy Force
- Atari Hard Drivin', purely for S.T.U.N. Runner
- Atari System 1, for Marble Madness and Road Blasters
- Atari Star Wars Vector, for every game ever produced for the platform

Whatever Killer Instinct 1 and 2 are running on.

Konami arcade beat em ups

Mostly Apple stuff:
Lisa
IIGS
Mac II
SE/30

As well as:
Xerox Star (Xerox 8010 Information System)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ILLIAC_I - any of the ILLIAC behemoths, really
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENIAC

32x would be excellent as far as consoles go

Cps3 - Street Fighter III : 3rd Strike
Sega Saturn

But mostly ... Street Fighter III : 3rd Strike

More recent Apple II core. More recent colour 68k Mac too.

IIgs would be neat due to the additional software support etc.

32x as we have the rest of the genesis stuff.

Definitely would love a Saturn core but assuming it’s WAY up there in terms of work required due to the obfuscation, DRM, and sheer number of processsors involved in that system. I have like 4 of them in various states of disrepair.

Next cube?

Both of those use the SH-2, so it's not a far off dream as srg320 is working on the Saturn core as we speak (probably still in the real-world feasibility check stage somewhat, despite all the hard work on development, still uncertain if it will work on the platform).

Sh2 is part of the Saturn. There’s two of em plus a 68k, plus a dsp, synth (iirc) and VDP1/2... and an sh1 as a CD-ROM controller.

A lot of work

Indeed I was pretty excited when I saw srg320 announce this, Jotego also just posted that a cps3 core is doable but low priority, I'll be joining both their patreons now

A lot of work

Absolutely, I wont even pretend to have the technical savvy to understand how difficult the undertaking is, I can only express my interest, and put my money in the hands of people who do. Still very exciting news that it's possible at all.

Sunset Riders! Yeehoo!

Rush n Crash
Pole Position I & II
Qix

My dream core "MR DO" came true but i'd love to see Nintendo's SPACE FIREBIRD coinop, and also ROD LAND coinop.

As we have Mr DO then mr Do's Castle would be wonderful!

"Gal's Panic" series

Thomson TO8D
Commodore 128
Apple IIgs

These have substantial nostalgia factors to me...

Truxton (arcade)

With the hybrid approach being worked on now by foft and a few others, my mind is going wild
N64, Pentium PC with the fpga chip used for fpus and graphics card maybe even dreamcast? I'm sure the future will surprise us ^^

Star Wars 1983 arcade

Air Buster Arcade please!
