As soon as I finish testing the DRAM the first 10 will go out to early adopters.
Looking ok now.
I'll immediately kick off the assembly of another 50 or so early Feb.

I am wondering what is the resolution which the Replay board will work with.


Considering current architecture of the Minimig AGA core the maximum resolution seems to be 1680x1050. But it will be implemented later as its pixel clock is not the same as memory clock. Initially 1280x1024 will be available.

It's too bad that it can't do 1920x1080.  Really, even 1280x1024 is probably overkill, but it would have been fun to be able to heckle some of my pals about how their shiny Xbox360 or PS3 doesn't have any higher resolution than my Amiga. ;)

I'm looking forward to this being released.  It's been along wait, and I think the community has done a very good job of being patient.  Having our MiniMigs probably helped with that.

Put me down for one as soon as the testers report all is well in the world of the FPGA Arcade :-) and there's a few screenshots and videos on YouTube showing off its capabilities.

And I have an old spare 1280x1024 LCD, so hurrah :-) - although could it support 960x1080 (half full hd) or 1920x540, or 960x540 I guess, as my new monitor is 1920x1080 and has a spare VGA and HDMI input.

FPGA Replay Board
« Reply #111 on: February 01, 2011, 10:04:57 AM »
Hi there,
This board is great.
I also want to buy a board (or maybe two) as soon as they are exists. :)
So put me on the list.

I think Replay board will be not just a game board, but a good starter kit for FPGA.

When it will have a working c64 core (with SID filters ???) that can load/save D64 files using the SD card --- then I will drool for 24 hours until paramedics come and give me a shot and one of those nice shirts which have the option to lock the arms on the back with all the straps....;-)

Hi Mike. Any idea what'll be the asking price for the board ? Just ballpark will do...

Which is a bargain considering a "new" refurbished A1200 will set you back around 140 EUR while the Minimig has extra RAM, scan doubler, PS2 mouse and keyboard adapters, SD card adapter and faster performance.

On top of that we also have to remember that this board isn't just an Amiga either.  :)

Edit:  I should also point out that if Yaqube delivers on the RTG front then a real A1200 would need a Mediator and Radion card to catch up.
