I saw the post at Neozones concerning it and felt the people here deserve to know about it. Or....... did he announce it here?

Great. I was thinking about assemble some stuff to a 6502 processor I have somewhere, but this seems to give everything pre-made
just for lazy people like me. I think I'll buy one as well
HAIL TO RETROGAMING!

Me too, but I will get rid of project circuitry and dirty cables, used components and non trustable stuff. Everything looks soooo cute that it should be like a lego

I wanna make something like a playstation so all my friends would be like "............Ian you're a fuckin nerd. Get a god damn girlfriend."
Wait, that's not what I meant to say... *sigh* I knew they'd say that instead of me being a genius or some shit though.

A 25 Mhz 3rd Generation 16 bits motorola... That can be more or less 4x a NeoGeo brain, or 3x a CPS2 brain... Plus the 2D GPU...
You can do NEAT things with such power!

25mhz is 4x a neogeo? WTF? How does that work, a separate processor for graphics? (What's a GPU? Graphics Processing Unit? I know it runs on FPGA and that's 10x a SNES...)

i always thought the neogeo's main cpu was a 12mhz 68000. I forget the speed of the graphics processor, but i think it was 6mhz. *sigh* you could pump a *lot* of power out of those old motorola chips...
i]"I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum ... you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?"[/i] - Dirty Harry
