"We Spent The Last Eight Months Creating A User-Friendly Frontend" - Taki Udon Shows Off SuperStation One's 'Console Mode' UI

FPGA system is getting closer to release

SuperStation One creator Taki Udon has given us the best look yet at the system's 'Console Mode' UI.

This is the culmination of eight months of work, and is a user-friendly frontend which will also be compatible with existing MiSTer FPGA systems (that will include Taki Udon's own MiSTer Pi).

As you can see in the footage, the UI is clean and fast, with support for box art, disc loading (when using the SuperStation 'SuperDock'), and more.

Taki Udon is putting the finishing touches to the SuperStation One hardware, which suggests it's not far from launch.

The system was initially put up for pre-order at $149, and is confirmed to run Sega CD and Saturn discs as well as PS1 titles, via the optical drive in its dock.

If the Saturn emulation is solid, this is a really exciting device for me and would plug a glaring hole in my hardware lineup. Here's hoping...

I visited the Retro Remake site just yesterday, and was surprised to see that the Superdock has now gone from being listed as a $5 pre-order to sold out. Perplexed, I checked for any emails I might have missed, including my spam folder. There were none. Perhaps this is just a mistake, and no Superdocks have actually been sold, but if they have, I'm left wondering if I should now cancel my preorder for the founder's edition, since I don't want it without the dock. Surely my $5 pre-order deposit should have been sufficient to receive an invite to complete purchase? If not, what was the point of the deposit?
