MiSTer Multisystem 2 review; the AIO MiSTer FPGA

I know one of the most common comments about MiSTer FPGA is either a) you have to build one or b) it doesn't work well as a console next to the tv. And while Heber had the Multisystem 1 it was still a bit of a "build your own adventure", which some people love and some people don't. And while I think MiSTer is only like 5% harder to set up than a new in box console from any of the big three manufacturers and barriers to entry mean the community won't grow as quickly and the install rate isn't going up as fast as it could

But now the Multisystem 2 solves that problem; it's a MiSTer console with a brand new bespoke PCB and a very "console centric" design.

Def something the community needed for those that want it and a legit amazing product for the price point

Curious if anyone on Gaf pre ordered one yet?

 
As a MiSTer discord visitor i don't think i need this thing.
I updated my self build 4 country imported self 3d printed monstrosity 4 years ago and i loved every bit of it.
I would be willing to chip in for this system but the 2 is not deserved this looks like a beta thing.
also mine looks hella better.

I'd you have a MiSTer that works there's no real reason to change unless you want a second MiSTer

I sure as hell got it when pre-orders opened. Retro Collection team folks are really cool and this all in one looks perfect.
