MiSTer FPGA and Sega Model 2; Could MiSTer Run Sega's 3D Powerhouse Arcade Boards? Let's Check!

Lately I’ve been getting a TON of question in regards to MiSTer FPGA arcade cores and if they’d be possible…probably because of the MiSTer FPGA N64 core. Leading the charge? Sega Model 2…home of Daytone USA, Virtua Fighter 2 and The House of the Dead! So let’s see id MiSTer could potentially handle it!

Now that the Nintendo 64 MiSTer FPGA core has proven to be very possible...my comments section and my Discord DMs keep lighting up with questions like "Could MiSTer FPGA run X"...and the number one question of all is whether or not MiSTer FPGA could handle the Sega Model 2 arcade board. So let's look at the Sega arcade hardware, the MiSTer FPGA hardware, break down the technical specifications and see if Sega Model 2 is truly the impossible core or if we have another MiSTer FPGA N64 core situation on our hands!

I asked, you answered...and I try to listen :) Of all the requests for new content on the channel one of the most frequently asked for videos is a series on the Terasic DE-10 Nano MiSTer FPGA hardware...so here it is! Retro gaming goodness.

On this episode of our MiSTer series we are going to be talking the Sega Model 2 arcade board (Virtual Fighter 2), the Sega Model 2A arcade board (Virtua Cop 2), the Sega Model 2B arcade board AND the Sega Model 2C arcade board...most famously known for The House of the Dead

Because there are some seriously best Sega games of all time games on Model 2 as well as some Sega Hidden gems! oh and because we have the Sega Saturn MiSTer FPGA core SOME of the Model 2 sound hardware is already working on MiSTer FPGA
