Looks Great, I notice that here, just like with the NES emulator, an RP2040 seems to be enough. I'm sure I still have 2 or 3 RP2040 clones lying around here. One could put them to good use with that. Isn't it a bit wasteful to use the PC3 for this? Cheers Martin Edited 2026-08-23 21:49 by Martin H. 'no comment |

Hi Martin, Of course, all these emulators worked on the RP2040, even with HDMI audio. However, with RP2350 + PSRAM, NES game images are loaded not into flash memory, but instantly into RAM. As for the PC3 platform, I built it on a breadboard, and now I have something to play with. So, it's just for fun. Cheers Vadim |

I think that little Olimex board might be a decent enough platform for this, using the sound over HDMI instead of its badly designed system. Mind you, it wouldn't stretch the resources of stripboard much. Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini Preliminary MMBasic docs & my PCB designs |

That’s not to take anything away from this project or Vladim’s work. I’ve just got a couple of Picos lying about here, and this would be a funny use for them. 'no comment |

I meant the "RP2040-PC" or something like that, the one that you plug a Pico into. Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini Preliminary MMBasic docs & my PCB designs |
