Mark’s MiSTer FPGA – Checking Out More Top C64 Demos (C64)(FPGA) – part 4 incl MoJo Midlife Crisis

#MiSTer #FPGA #C64

Running some more top notch C64 demos. The C64 demo in my opinion has reached the stage of true art as it has become much more than showing off technical capabilities of the developers. It has become a true form of artistic impression next to that.
The last demo in this video entitled MoJo was released by Bonzai & Pretzel Logic at X’2023 – to anyone my age and a bit of a c64-geek this is just so apt!

Check out some more masterpieces of C64 Demo-hood on the humble breadbin that in case of this video has been lovingly recreated in FPGA form on the MiSTer FPGA board.

On the MiSTer FPGA System:
The MiSTer project aims to recreate and emulate a wide range of classic computer and gaming hardware using field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) attempting to accurately replicate the behavior of vintage hardware, allowing enthusiasts to experience retro computing and gaming on modern displays with exceptional accuracy.

The foundation of the MiSTer project is the DE10-Nano board, developed by Terasic in collaboration with Intel. One of the key differentiators of the MiSTer project is its dedication to accuracy. Unlike traditional software-based emulators that mimic the behavior of vintage systems through code, FPGAs allow for a much closer approximation of the original hardware’s behavior. This means that the MiSTer project can replicate the idiosyncrasies, quirks, and timing intricacies of the original systems with remarkable precision.

The MiSTer project has garnered a dedicated community of enthusiasts, developers, and contributors who collaborate to develop and refine FPGA cores for various systems. The community continually improves these cores, enhancing compatibility, accuracy, and performance over time.
The MiSTer project’s versatility isn’t limited to gaming consoles. It also supports computer systems like the C64, Atari 800, BBC Micro, MSX, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, Amiga, Atari ST, Sharp X68000 and even early IBM PCs upto a 486 running Windows95, turning the DE10-Nano board into a flexible platform for experiencing a broad range of computing history & gaming.

Enjoy! Kudos to the creators of this wonderful FPGA Reproductions of these old systems on a modern day FPGA!
