Handheld MiSTer testing has gone well this week. 2 x 21700 Battery cells and life is looking around 10 to 11 hours on the PlayStation Core. The Gameboy is looking like 12 Hours. Zaparoo front end is looking really good too.

We have reached a significant milestone in the Handheld MiSTerFPGA (Pocket) project. It’s working! StarWars (Vector Arcade) running on the first issue prototype. More updates soon.

16” of 16:9 with a #sony PS2 🎮 Ready for you to play this weekend at our museum.

What a Rush. The Hercules Stingray 128/3D was their version of the Voodoo Rush, a combined 3DFX and 2D video card from Q1 of 1997. It also has a stereoscopic glasses connector 👓 It wouldn’t be too long before combined 3D GPU and 2D cards were the norm for PC gamers.
