Has there been any damage or failures when connecting or disconnecting devices when the FPGA Arcade is powered?


No, the PS2 ports have a resistor between the FPGA and the connector which limits the current. This is a necessary to get 5V toll (sort of), but has the side affect of protecting the FPGA a bit. There are protection diodes on the video interfaces as well.

Or use solder tin sucker for removing the solder :-)


Possible, but it's a six layer board and it's tricky to get it hot enough.
I cut the pins, remove each one in turn by heating the pin and pulling it with pliers, then when cleaning the hole up with solder wick.

Hi all :)

This is a new video made by Yakub demonstrating the 060 daughter board speed with Shapeshifter :
Youtube Video Here

I hope it will be available sooner ;)

Other videos of the FPGA Arcade board demonstrating the new firmware (without 060 daughter board) will be done in one or 2 weeks and will be available on my personnal web Here

Thanks to Mike and Jakub for their awesome work ;)

060 is nice and all, but I'd rather take a daughterboard with local ram and an FPGA on.
I hope y'all have a goal of eventually outgunning an 060 with a 680x0 FPGA implementation. Giving the 060 its own local memory will give it a big advantage compared to having only (fast, but still) chip/slow/ranger memory.

Yes, it does. There is 128 MB of SDRAM on the daughterboard.

yaqube, when do you expect the daughterboard to go into production?
