fpgagen - A SEGA Genesis/Megadrive clone in a FPGA
Par Torlus, Wednesday 14 July 2010 à 08:28 :: Home
fpgagen is an attempt to clone the SEGA Genesis/Megadrive console on a Terasic/Altera DE1 board.
So far, both CPUs are done (thanks to the TG68 core from Tobias Gubener and the T80 core from Daniel Wallner), as well as glue logic and a custom Video Display Processor.
It is compatible enough to run many games, with a few glitches, as it is still in a alpha stage.
Here is an early video of some games running :
Source code and programming files have been released at http://code.google.com/p/fpgagen.
Please have a look at the README file for additional information and operating instructions.
All you need is a DE1 board and a VGA monitor.
Enjoy!
