I was impressed by the USB ports on the MIST which aren't present on either the Minimig or the Replay board.  Finding PS2 keyboards and mice isn't as easy these days as one would think.


PS/2 keyboards and mice are widely available everywhere for very cheap prices throughout the entire planet except for Africa, certain repressive Islamic countries in the middle east, North Korea, Burma and certain isolated islands out in the ocean.  Which one of those places do you live?

MIST can't do 24 bit video. If I remember correctly it's limited to 18 bit, so colours would be wrong with AGA.


You remember correctly.  On the website it says it is missing MILLIONS of colors.  It only has 18-bit color.  Out of AGA 16.7 million colors it missing 16.5 million of those.  So this board can never emulate AGA.

FPGA Arcade Replay is massively better than Mist.
