If I understood correctly, the ECP5 FPGA can be designed for with open source tooling [0][1], which makes this even more awesome. OP, if you are planning to commercialize these, try to confirm compatibility, that will definitely make it more attractive! [0] https://hackernoon.com/getting-started-using-open-source-fpg...

What is this FPGA capable of? Can any of the cores of the MISter cores be ported over to this?

After the amount of emails i got asking if i sell the boards, I just applied to crowdsupply :P
I have no idea about this product category but am interested in learning more about FPGAs. What is the ballpark price point that something like this would be? Are we talking $100 or $1000?
this looks super cool! it’s inspiring me to finally dust of the NeTV2 board I have. but alas time for hobbies has been in short supply for a while
can the HDMI be configured as input? this looks super cool! it’s inspiring me to finally dust of the NeTV2 board I have. but alas time for hobbies has been in short supply for a while

at bulk 40-50$! My dev batch of 5 comes out at around 70$ per board, but it has a large startup cost.
Great work. I'll look into this after my vacation as it seems quite interesting for our university courses.

Don't offer them too cheaply. Typically you want to roughly sell for 4x your buy price. 200 seems good and there should be plenty demand at that price. Great work. I'll look into this after my vacation as it seems quite interesting for our university courses.

Can I ask your reasoning about not selling them too cheaply? I would like to sell them cheaper then the existing boards since the price prevented me from buying one when I was 13
