WebFPGA has introduced a web-based development environment that lets users program FPGA devices directly from their browser after purchasing a compatible board. The project, which originated on Kickstarter, also offers a command-line option for Linux users and includes community-shared demo projects.
Commodore has released the Commodore 77, a special-edition version of its Commodore 64 Ultimate reimagined with Cyberpunk 2077 branding. It features a Night City-inspired design, an exclusive 8-bit demo with SID music, an upgraded FPGA chip reaching 77MHz, and themed accessories including pins, stickers, and a manual with BASIC programs. The unit is available for pre-order at $377, with shipping expected in February 2027.
Analogue's FPGA-based N64 remake, the Analogue 3D, outputs video at up to 3,840 x 2,160 pixels, but the original games it plays were rendered natively at far lower resolutions, typically around 320 x 240 and occasionally up to 640 x 480. The console upscales and cleans up that old output—removing blur, distance fog, and choppy frame rates—rather than generating new high-resolution textures or geometry.
