New version 1.5A MIDI in a high quality metal case, fully assembled, and ready-to-run.
The MIST board uses modern hardware to implement classic 16 Bits computers like Amiga AGA, Atari ST(e), and 8 Bits systems like C64, ZX-Spectrum, MSX, Atari XL/VCS, Apple II, Colecovision, Sega Master System, NES, etc.
The MIST board isn't an emulation, it's a re-implementation of the original hardware in a FPGA.
Minimig Core for Amiga support ECS and AGA chipsets. Kickstart ROMs 1.2, 1.3, 2.0, 3.1, 3.X, 3.1.4, and 3.2 are also supported, and you will be able to load floppy disk images (ADF) and hard disk images (HDF) from the root directory or from subfolders.
