Portable retro gaming handheld that emulates various console systems on an FPGA.
I found this on Ben Heck’s console modding site - he’s doing the case design.
No word on pricing as of yet. But check it - a user-programmable FPGA in a case with buttons, USB slave, SD slot, a colour display, audio, and a link port :) Depending on pricing, which will probably be cheap given the intended market, this would possibly be an attractive FPGA development platform.
the heart of the systems is a Xilinx Spartan 3 and some supporting logic’ date=’ including a microcontroller … the system is completly open and documented; also we will provide the source code for the tools as well, so you will be able to implement any system that can be handled by the hardware. … The price is going to be less than $75 in stores and about $50 for
direct online sales.
