While most processors have a fixed architecture, FPGAs are designed to be reconfigured to clone whatever old gaming hardware they’re programmed to. To do this, MiSTers use FPGA (field-programmable gate array) technology. MiSTer is an open-source project designed to recreate the functionality of classic PCs, arcade games, and consoles as accurately as possible.
And though my colleagues no longer answer their doors when they see me knocking, you, my dear reader, clicked on this story voluntarily! And I’m glad you did, so I can share this definitely-not-a-pamphlet explainer with you about why MiSTer is so exciting and why I think, maybe, you will find it exciting too! What is a MiSTer and do I have to type it that way? I’ve gotten a reputation around here as something of a proselytizer when it comes to the MiSTer project.
