FPGA NES

The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) is Nintendo�s 1980-era console that paved the way for the gaming industry over the following decades. The FPGA NES is a senior project that aims to seamlessly recreate the original NES using SystemVerilog while updating the audio and video outputs to a modern interface. The system�s functionality was broken out into 3 major subsystems (the CPU, the APU, and the PPU) and put on a development board. In the end, the system was recreated to meet all initial specifications we set for ourselves while also implementing additional mappers to allow more than 500 games to be played
