Hi to all,
I wanted to share with you one of my project. I have been developing emulators for SEGA and other retro computing systems for many years, but recently I got interested in electronics as part of my emulation development. I wanted to port my emulator to a small embedded system, not just the PC.
So the adventure started with an Arduino Duemilanove and a TV color PAL video driver. It was written with inline Assembly . The graphic is rendered thanks to a tiny tile engine. The result was very primitive but it pushed me to go on in my adventure with micro controllers
2 years later after several projects, I now know a little about electronics, but during this time, I worked with Andre' LaMothe, the creator of the XGameStation, HYDRA, PropC3, and other systems on a new web site.
I had to work hard but at the end my starting Arduino project became a real big project. I was able to design the C3Synapse for the PropC3 and go on with my emulator:

My next goal is to emulate a more complex system such as the MSX.
I hope you liked it!
