Tamagotchi P1 Core Available for Analogue Pocket & MiSTer FPGA Thanks to GitHub Project

If you’ve got an Analogue Pocket or a MiSTer FPGA (field programmable gate array), and you love Tamagotchi, then you’re in for a treat. These are multiple video-game-system portable handle devices that allow customized programming.

Adam Gastineau, agg23 on GitHub has published a project that they’ve been working on for three months. The project takes the Tamagotchi P1 ROM and transports it onto the Analogue Pocket & MiSTer FPGA platforms. However this isn’t just your regular P1, there’s some special treats! There is savestates/sleep & wake feature, instant resume at core launch, turbo play up to 1,800x (which is ~30 minutes a second), and the ability to set custom backgrounds (love that!). Adam notes that building the core was way more fun than making it run on different platforms.

There are plenty instructions and documents posted for you to review and download. Available on GitHub to download. Enjoy!
