Not necessarily. The fpgaArcade uses a different brand and size of fpga than the Natami. Also, the fpgaArcade CPU is geared more for compatibility while the Apollo CPU (Natami) is tuned for speed and has enhancements. A free license to use the Apollo core will likely be granted for hobby projects and educational use. Both the Natami and fpgaArcade should fit under this category.
Hi,
Personally I have no interest in licensing a closed source CPU core.
The T68K is continuing to be improved and has reached a good level of compatibility with a 68020 - it's not perfect yet. Next generation cores (I am writing one) are table based and will be much more efficient, especially as we are learning from the 68000 die scans how the microcode is laid out in the original.
It should be possible to get >100MHz 68020 performance in the cheap FPGA the replay
uses.
