"#Sega #Saturn core now available for #MiSTer #MiSTerFPGA. Run Update_All script to grab it!"

Of course a huge shout out to srg320, who has put a lot of work into this core over the years despite being caught up in the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

This would be way cooler if they supported an FPGA that was actually readily available

It's kind of tricky I guess, with the DE10 nano being pretty powerful for the price, on top of the chip shortage and so on. Maybe it could be ported to the Analogue Pocket, but I'm also not sure if that's feasible or even if those things are any more available than the MiSTer. shrug

One of the good things about all of this stuff being open source is that if it can be ported to something else, it probably will in due time.

Genuine question, what would you consider readily available? Being new to this I’ve only really heard of MiSTer (DE10) or Analogue Pocket (Cyclone V).
