If you thought your MiSTer FPGA was complete, think again. The community has been busy, and the latest update is a massive pile of new cores, mobile convenience, and some long-awaited official releases.

First up, the big hitters: The Atari Jaguar core has officially landed in the main update channels (though keep an eye on those dual-RAM builds for the best performance). We’re also seeing a massive boost for Amiga fans, with new native support for CD32 and CDTV hardware that finally fixes those pesky loading headaches.

Here’s a quick hit list of what else is making waves:

  • Mobile Control: The MiSTer Companion app is now available for Android, letting you manage your device from your phone for a small fee.

Arcade Classics: New vector-based cores for Black Widow, Gravitar, Tempest, and The Empire Strikes Back* are ready to play.

  • PICO-8: The fan-favorite “fantasy console” is now officially part of the MiSTer repository with native FPGA video and audio.
  • Gamification: Megadrive and SNES now support Retroachievements, so you can finally hunt for digital trophies while playing old-school classics.

Whether you’re a vector shooter fanatic or a hardcore Amiga collector, there’s plenty to sink your teeth into this week.
