Hello MSX Amateurs, Fans and Gurus!
Here is the cartridge prototype which brings the HDMI connectivity to the existing MSX computers (hope).
The card is built upon the FPGA based hardware emulation principle.
When plugged into MSX slot, it can mimic your MSX internal VDP sending the video to two HDMI screens.
Also it can act as the MSX1->MSX2+ upgrade kit/accelerator/storage/multimedia extender etc.
This card also can work in the stand alone mode emulating 8-16 bit home computers and simple game consoles.
You can find more info about the card on this WEBblog:

Here is the card itself. It is called Procyon Arcade.
It would be interesting to share the thoughts, ideas and use cases.
The status: all major systems are operational, HDMI works up to 720p with the test design in stand alone mode. Currently debugging the 9918 emulation (very first step).
Cheers!
