MiSTercade Kit
I played with MiSter fpga on crt or hdtv. I wanted to play in my cabinet (sega New Astro City). I have tested MiSTercade of friend and immediatly ordre one. I do 2 errors in my order but with MiSTerAddOn’s help, I can correct them. I have received my parcel and in thé sale evening, I mount it (around 10 minutes. - i have read manual 10 Times before :) - and create my sd card 1 week ago).
All is perfect. If I goy a 2nd cabinet, I would order a second MiSTercade.
French fan.
hello perfect these really top of the range
MisterCade is one of the greatest devices ever created for gaming.
