Really impressing the progress he's made with that MiSTer core, especially since for years people said there was absolutely no way an N64 core could work on the MiSTer's DE10 nano FPGA board.
this was obviously always possible, but it required someone who wasn't indoctrinated into the community. the community behind a project is always both the very best and very worst thing about any project.
I'm most excited for the next generation of FPGA retro consoles coming in the next 6ish months. Specifically the MARSFPGA. All the existing Mister cores, plus a bunch of new stuff enabled by a better and newer FPGA. The estimated price is $700, that's reasonable for those of us with large disposable income that want the retro kit with no hassle, easy access for the kids, and high Wife Acceptance Factor.
I'm also looking forward to all the upcoming arcade cores for the MARSFPGA.
