A demo was just posted of a really interesting adapter that allows a Namco GunCon for the PlayStation to be used on any HID USB compatible device that outputs to a CRT. That means any device that outputs an RGBHV signal from 240p up to 1024×768 (and possibly higher), including PC/Raspberry Pi emulation and even the […]
The MiSTer FPGA project has been one of the most exciting things in retro gaming. While I’ll soon have a video (or series) covering everything it can do, I wanted to take the time to highlight one specific feature in this post: Direct Video. This allows you to connect the DE-10’s HDMI port to a […]
UPDATE 02/10: Sorg has added 5x modes AND a screen shift to many of the cores!!!!! Please check out the rest of this post to see why that’s so amazing for console gamers using 1080p or 4K TV’s! Just update your MiSTer the normal way and check the settings listed at the bottom of this […]
Scarlet Sprites has just posted a video showing the new “MiSTerCade” product from misteraddons.com. This is a device that’s 100% compatible with the MiSTer project and works similar to current MiSTer kits: Connect a DE-10 Nano, configure an SD card the same way as normal and plug it into the JAMMA harness in your arcade […]
The arcade games Gauntlet and Gauntlet II have been ported to the MiSTer FPGA platform by Alex, aka d18c7db. You can manually install it from the mra files on github, or use your favorite script updater: https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Arcade_Gauntlet_MiSTer The open source MiSTer FPGA project is constantly evolving, with new cores and features being added so fast, that […]
These days, there are many excellent ways to play Sega Genesis / Mega Drive games. Unfortunately, not all methods of playing create savegame files the same way, which makes it tricky to do something like: Start a game on original hardware, continue it on the MiSTer…and maybe even load it up in a PC emulator […]
Sorg has just added support for PC Engine / Turbo Grafx-16 CD to the MiSTer project! More information is available on the GitHub page and changes are below: https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/TurboGrafx16_MiSTer CD-ROM support, fully rewritten CPU and VDC modules for cycle accuracy by srg320! Arcade Card module. Some games require it to be enabled. Some other games […]
The MiSTer team has just implemented an “adaptive” transparency blending technique for the Sega Genesis and Sega CD cores. In some cases, this is an improvement over the previous composite blending technique, as it tries to detect the layer that would benefit from the blending and blur only that layer. For those unfamiliar, developers in the […]
Sorge, the head of the MiSTer FPGA project, swapped out the old screen in his MiSTer-modded PiCade for a 2048×1536 screen, and promptly added native support for the somewhat strange resolution used by Apple’s Retina Display iPads. I previously reported on MiSTer video scaler improvements that added support for other >1080p resolutions like 1440p and […]
Jotego has been releasing beta versions of his MiSTer & MiST Capcom CPS-1 Arcade FPGA cores to his patrons, allowing fans to dive into the largely unported CPS-1 library. Each week he has brought a few new games to the core, and he intends to support the entire CPS-1 library. The core is currently private, […]
