>I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as emulation, is in fact, emulation that requires different hardware, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, not emulation

Does it actually feel authentic? It's a fucking emulation box. Should I just buy real consoles instead?

How accurate is MiSTer really? For all the talk about how FPGA allows for transistor-to-transistor logic how many of the cores actually do this? The upcoming PS1 core is literally just the Duckstation emulator isn't it?

MiSTer FPGA. Cool.

>Will the Sega Saturn core be able to surpass software emulators in terms of accuracy/compatibility or will it just be an passable recreation but with the benefit of less latency? Aside from the garbled audio it looks fairly promising so far, at least when it comes to Bug and Earthworm Jim 2. Not holding my breath until I see some footage of heavier 3D games like Daytona, Virtual On or Powerslave though, I hear that the DE10-Nano might not be on that level.
>Is the old MIST 1.4 still a worthwhile option if you just looking to play 8 and 16-bit systems but want something cheaper and more intergrated than the MiSTer?

what is the verdict on the mister? i'm on the fence to get one and it seems as good as analog's consoles for cheaper and with more systems.

So how does it feel to play one of these compared to a cycle accurate core in Retroarch

thoughts on the MiSTer FPGA system?
