I'm using an old CRT with component inputs, so I'm using a RetroTink RGB SCART adapter to component. I could just use the component out on the Sophia, but I already have a massive SCART switch so I'd rather not add another switch for component. Any pictures of your cable and/or any progress pictures of creating it?

So to confirm, the Sophia does route the analog RGB/SYNC to the analog pins of the DVI connector? (C1 through C5 I believe based on the docs) (and just like a normal DVI-I with the digital and analog signals) That analog should be 15khz that I could get a DVI to VGA and then VGA to SCART adapter to connect to my RetroTink for RGB?

Is this a service you still offer? I haven't purchased the Sophia, but I would love to get mine setup with DVI, Component, and RGB (I have a spare 3d printed SNES style AV connector that could be used for the RGB)

Thanks for all of this, as a US person it seems I have to order through Brewing Academy, but they don't seem to have any listings for the analog cables, just the DVI. Is there another source to get those? I'd rather have the component out so I can directly hook it up to my CRT. Thanks!

Correct, the SD2SNES does replicate many expansion chips however those would already be expected exist on the cart bus connector. I was thinking of different scenario. For ease of example I will use the Genesis and CD addon. Pretending for a moment the Analogue NT could replicate the Genesis hardware it would be doubtful that it could also do the Sega CD addon hardware. My thought was a cart connector addon that would add another FPGA to handle addition chips like those found in the Sega CD. This way hardware capabilities could be added to the Analogue NT Mini. Again, I do not know the inner workings of FPGAs. It is possible that splitting hardware emulation accross multiple FPGAs would be very difficult, likely more so when working across the NES or Famicom cart connector. (Unless of bandwidth possibilities there) I don't expect any of this is really cost effective, but it was more just entertaining to think about from a technical perspective.

Additionally, is it possible to make a pair of FPGAs work together? Wasn't sure if something like a NES cartridge slot addon with another FPGA could provide additional horsepower for things like Genesis/SNES etc. Obviously that would only really work for ROMs unless you could some how put another cart slot onto the addon, but mostly curious if technically its even possible.

Agreed! I would love to have Atari 5200 support, minus the couple analog controller games, and use the Jaguar controller for 5200, Intellivision, and Colecovision.

Kevtris: Do you plan to have Genesis/Sega CD, SNES, TG16/CD support in the future with your FPGA console? I assume the Analogue NT Mini hardware wouldn't handle those and likely tops off with the NES/SMS? Thanks

Sorry to resurrect this, but does anyone offer installation services for this on a 5200?

Thank you for the response and sorry if I wasn't specifically clear. I was just curious if your "Emulate CD" option would still function if a CD unit was attached or if they would conflict. Thanks again for your work.

This is all fantastic stuff SainT! I had always hoped that a Jaguar Flash cart would happen, but the idea of playing CD based games is just mind blowing. Thank you for all your work on this! ---Edit: Given the possibility of CD games playing from the cart, do you anticipate any conflicts with actually having a CD unit installed and the flash cart plugged into the CD unit? Additionally are you planning support for the CD Memory Track cart to allow CD game saves?

Title says it all. Interested in an Atari 2600 with Tim's RGB/Component mod and an Intellivision II with the RGB mod. Euro SCART cable is prefered with both. Thanks!

I would instantly buy two of these!

Thanks for the reply, I'll keep hoping.

Hey guys, finally picked up an Intellivision just last night! I've been looking for a while, but curious now if composite is really the only AV mod option. I searched a bit, but couldn't find anything substantial. Thanks!
