The MiSTer FPGA project has become a cornerstone for our retro computing fix, offering a way to experience classic hardware with unparalleled accuracy. Rather than using software emulation, which simulates the original hardware, the MiSTer C64 core uses the DE10 Nano FPGA to recreate the Commodore 64’s internal logic and circuits on a modern chip.
