### Retro Gaming Tech: From 3DFx Resurrection to Arcade Dreams
If you thought the golden age of PC graphics was dead and buried, think again. A developer has just unveiled SpinalVoodoo, an FPGA implementation of the legendary 3DFx Voodoo graphics card. While it’s currently a bit too resource-heavy to run directly on your MiSTer hardware without hitting a wall, it represents a massive win for preservation. Imagine a future where you can plug a “virtual” Voodoo card into a retro PC to keep that classic glow alive!
But the news doesn’t stop at the GPU. The Retro Collective is making some serious waves with the upcoming Multisystem 2 Arcade. This isn’t just another peripheral; it’s a JAMMA-compatible board with an FPGA chip built right in, designed specifically to live inside an arcade cabinet.
Here are a few other quick hits for your radar:
- Cartridge Magic: A new Game Boy adapter is coming April 2nd, allowing you to run original cartridges directly on the Multisystem 2—no ROM dumping required.
Wrestling Fever: New cores for Matt Mania and Mania Challenge* have arrived via Coin Op Collection.
- The Red Eyes are Coming: A Virtual Boy core is officially in development (though it’s still very much in the “experimental” phase).
