MOTU
It behaves exactly like a real Amiga - reading and writing as you, loading just like original hardware.
27.02.2026 17:25 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Most of the above - designed for Multisystem2 โsidecarโ expansion so can also still use SNAC / Cartridges.
Our goal is to have both MT32pi & Floppy function at the same time (or other SNAC carts + floppy)
We plan to make some enhancements to the FPGA core too.
We have plenty of I/O on MMS2 ๐
Testing our MiSTer Floppy adaptor for #Multisystem2
Based on the great work of Rob Smith, this Floppy interface for the Amiga Minimig FPGA Core directly reads 3.5 inch floppy discs.
More updates soon.
I expect you could just print TPU or PET directly onto slightly etched copper (pink) and then use that as a mask for etching the rest of the copper away.

21.02.2026 12:03 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Itโs a neat but a little too much manual work. I made some similar 3D prints with raised tracks, coated them in glue and sprinkled on copper nano particles. You then need to burnish them but it worked for basic circuits.
Get copper nano particles from a copper sulphate solution+ ascorbic acid.

Snow !
Robโs winter adventures and a pool disaster.
Well worth listening to the YDKF episode for this one- podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/y...
Hey Rob sorry to hear about the pool. I hope it all gets sorted out with the insurance. I just wanted to say that podcast was really fantastic to listen too. Really enjoyed all the snow stories and the pool disaster๐. Also great advice ref not worrying about how someone is going to fix things. ๐

It's #MiSTerFPGA for your arcade! Meet the "Multisystem 2 Arcade"
Happy New Year Lu.
Exciting update, looking forward to the System 18 core ( Shadow Dancer) and also Mr Wardner. One of my favourite Arcade games.
Enjoying the weekend news update Pixel๐
Thanks for the Multisystem2 & Multisystem2 Arcade shouts. We have some exciting systems, products and plans for 2026. Further updates as soon as we have more to show.
Yes, we had to change the MiSTer FPGA core to support optical input and not just Analogue/Digital. Itโs working perfectly now.
Full analogue throttle also working perfectly with the original Atari foot pedal.
We will release the Core and video next week all about it ๐

All new electronic product prototypes are Schrรถdinger cat. As long as you donโt attempt to build them or power them up, they are both perfect and scrap at the same time.
We try hard to be the exact opposite of FOMO since 1984 ๐
You can still be desirable without a โfancy boxโ sensible, sustainable, fair.
We are all about designing, building and delivering valued products to customers.

This was an awesome last push to the finish?
