It's based on MiST and the FPGA is very old these days. Much better off buying a MiSTer. They have boards to make them fit Amiga cases.

Yes, FPGA is old news indeed. FGPA is the future!

in case you didn't know this board has been upgraded to 64mb so can support cps 2 cores and also there is now an a1200 case version which includes rtc https://www.8bits4ever.net/product-p...1200-fpga-64mb

When I disable some uBlock stuff and enable some javascript I get the same message. So if you block the responsible resource you should be able to view the page.

I see it's out of stock - does that means it's sold out, or that it's not gone on sale yet?

When will be Miss-1200 available again ? Does anybody know ? (would use it in a A600 Case tho) :spin

dreadnought 01 February 2022 10:45

Just email the shop, they usually asnwer promptly.

alexh 01 February 2022 15:18

They have a new board called MiSTress which is a MiSTer clone. It seems very expensive? It's €110 for the carrier board WITHOUT the DE10-nano FPGA (which is another €186)

How much do the ancillary boards for a MiSTer normally cost?

It's not that bad since it inculdes I/O and USB, which normally would be ~70-90E together. On the other hand you don't really need them, but without this design you probably coudn't fit it so nicely into the case.


It's all a moot point anyway because at the moment DE10 boards are made of unobtainium (or scalpium).

:great Interested in your experience with it.
How many USB ports are reachable from outside, how many inside?

Lord Aga 02 February 2022 09:02

Oooh, no, sorry for the misunderstanding :D

It is impossible for a Starcraft player to hear (see) the word "carrier" without adding "has arrived" to it.

On topic, though, I do plan to get myself this combo, but I am currently discouraged by the availability of DE10 boards. Are they still being manufactured or is there a finite number of them floating around which would mean that things are only going to get worse?

dreadnought 02 February 2022 10:34

DE10 is still in production but is also yet another victim of the chip shortage crisis. At the moment most retailers (Mouser, Digikey, etc) list possible availability for July. Some say it is worth trying to inquiry and order directly at Terasic, as they might have small quantities available for individual customers, or have shorter wait times (even if the website is saying it's out of stock).

Also, the official price has gone up to ~200USD (was 130 year or two ago).

So, there will be no more Miss500?

Seems that way. No mention of the Miss500 or 1200 on the site any more.

That would be a shame after putting the effort in to design and produce it. I wonder why... Lack of FPGA supply? That doesn't explain why it wouldn't just be 'Out of stock'. Lack of interest compared with the Mister? It always seemed to sell out within hours. Anyway, no-one can actually buy a De10 Nano board these days and even if you can, the prices have shot up.

I managed to get my hands on the Miss 1200 in the end and it's become my main machine for retro stuff. I put it in my 1200 CD32 case and hooked it up to a cheap 4:3 VGA monitor and I couldn't be happier with it. Compatibility with MiST is 100% and that covers 99% of the cores I'm interested in. I hope they continue with it.

new batch
 
It seems there will be a new batch for the MISS FGPA 1200. Great News ! Hopefully I have more luck getting one this time. Just wanted to let you know. Looking forward to any new comments.
