This main distinguishing feature of this project is that it supports physical cartridges, whereas MiSTer and almost every other emulation handheld doesn’t.

The FPGA cores here are written from scratch by me with hardware support in mind, and it’s quite a bit of work! Plus, SNES cartridges don’t exactly fit in a handheld :)



Funny you should mention SNES carts...the only way I can use a Super Game Boy portably is with a Supaboy, which looks very silly :D

I realize you don't have the resolution needed for such a thing on your project, but it would be interesting to see a full SGB setup via FPGA.


>SNES cartridges don’t exactly fit in a handheld :)

Surely, you've heard of the Supaboy.

I jest, this project looks great! After looking over the build instructions, it seems like this might be a good reason to finally make an account with JLCPCB.


this is very impressive. all i say is you might port some of the Mister cores as well, if only for Roms support.

Portable FPGA retro console would be great.
