The MiSTer is an open-source project that emulates consoles, computers and arcade boards via FPGA. Setup and use has gotten really simple, so I created a quick video that will get you up and running as quickly as possible, on the lowest budget possible! Links to everything shown here (as well as any updates) are located on the main MiSTer page: www.retrorgb.com/mister.html

@DonLuca27 2 года назад

There's some truth hidden in there. If MLIG's video was made to make more people aware of the MiSTer project and show them how easy and approachable setting up a MiSTer is, then it failed really hard because the only people that would watch a video almost 3 hours long are the ones who have already done their research and know what to do (like myself). If I was a newbie scared of the complexity of the MiSTer despite really wanting one, opening a youtube video and seeing 2 hours+ would definitely scare me away forever. This is the way to go, 10 minute video showing people how to get straight to the business, well done Bob!

@Izquierda 2 года назад

Awesome intro video! An addition worth mentioning: update_all has a PC version (though Windows only) that can be preferable over running the script on the MiSTer for those who can get a more reliable internet connection on their PCs, or those who encounter timeout errors with the script. Then you only need to copy the folders from your PC to the MiSTer's SD card.

@TrevorKevorson 2 года назад

Just got my DE10 setup thanks to this great video. It must have saved me a good couple of hours of trying to figure it out. Now I need to try and figure out how to SFTP stuff over to the Mister as it's a pain taking the SD card out and putting it in my laptop (or maybe I just need to get an SD card reader for my desktop). Really looking forward to start playing, should receive the 128MB memory and a couple of controllers in the next couple of days :-) Oh and anyone in the UK who is looking at getting a DE10, I got mine from Terasic directly, took about 3 days when it was in stock (had to wait about 3 weeks for stock), the power supply is a US one but a £4 travel adaptor from Sainsburys works great to plug the power supply in (it runs at 110 to 240V).

If you can borrow one, you could just try if it works. They have a pretty similar FPGA on them, but the DE10 lacks HDMI. It only supports VGA output.

@marcelowcr Год назад

Thanks for all the content! Let me ask you this, since you are a master in video conversion...hehe. Is there a way to successfuly connect the HDMI port of the Mister to RCA/composite televisions? Should I use an HMDI > VGA and then a VGA > composite, or an external converter? I haven't tried anything yet, just researching about it. Because I have an old television with composite inputs, and the mister is with a digital I/O, so no VGA out, and I wanted to make it work. Thanks!

I would not recommend to use Rufus for flashing the image to Sd Card. Mister Fusion installed with the MiSTer, but i could not read the Sd Card after being plugged again to the PC. The MiSTer project only recommends 3 flashing programs : BalenaEtcher, Windisk32 Imager or Pi Imager. Cheers

All depends on what you're trying to accomplish. FPGA hardware emulation has the potential for zero latency, in a small package. If you want a casual gaming station, your PC is fine. If you'd like something good enough to run tournaments on, you'll (at least now and in the short-term future) need an FPGA-based solution. Your comment (and I mean this respectfully) is exactly like saying: "Why would anyone buy an Acura? The cost seems a little ridiculous. Why not just buy a Honda? It's the same thing..."
