Yes, the miSTer. As a cheap yet powerful FPGA-based solution that's easy to use, miSTer has quite the ecosystem, with a load of cores and a huge community around it.

Whereas. in contrast, Pi4 It is just a weaker computer than most people's primary desktop/workstation computer. These can run WinUAE, which is currently the best emulator. Whatever available for Pi4 simply isn't anywhere as good.

It saddens me when people who have no FPGAs at all do instead buy these flavor-of-the-week SBCs. It's even sadder when they use them to do things their workstations do better. Advising against is about all I can do; ultimately it's not up to me.
