Video: Non-expert tries MiSTer FPGA via the Multisystem 2
I've got one of these orders but won't likely get it until sometime in August. I'm really looking forward to it arriving.

Here's my MiSTer FPGA presentation from LinusFest Northwest 2025. Enjoy!
Most of this was over my head but it was impressive. See if you can figure it out.
srg320 posted a video to YouTube today showing his progress on his work-in-progress 3DO core. It starts off pretty simple and then gets into lots of game play. It has come a long way in a few months.
If you buy the original Terassic DE10-Nano, that'll likely set you back about $235 plus shipping... and then you'll likely want the SDRAM addon, USB board, and maybe the Analog I/O board. A traditional MiSTer FPGA setup will easily set one back around $400. You can get a complete MiSTer Pi setup for around $180... although shipping from Hong Kong is likely more than we are used to ($31-$40).
Anyway, I picked up two of these systems last night but it'll be a while until they arrive. The following video highlights the MiSTer Pi system mainly by pointing out the much lower cost while focusing on many of the popular FPGA cores that are part of the MiSTer FPGA project. Enjoy!
Mr. Torvalds sat down with TFiR for a fairly lengthy interview while attending a conference a couple of weeks ago. I enjoyed it; Hope you do too.
Video Game Esoterica released a May 2024 updates video that basically covers what's been going on in the last month. Enjoy.
The most recent Linus talk. Enjoy.
I bought a MiSTercade board a while ago. Only problem is that I don't have a JAMMA cabinet to use it with. I have my eye on a Storm from AwesomeArcades based out of Idaho... but I haven't come up with the cash for it yet. That doesn't have a CRD so things like the NES Zapper wouldn't work... but there are some alternative light guns that would work if I wanted that. Anyhoo, here's Retro Ralph's take on the MiSTer. Enjoy!
The price of this board is reported to be $99, and a 128GB RAM module is going to be only $15.
