Majestic Twelve

The aliens are back—and this time, they’re pixel-perfect! 🚀 Dive into the wild, weird world of Majestic Twelve as it blasts its way onto the MiSTer FPGA thanks to the incredible work of wickerwaka and the brand-new Taito F2 core. If you love arcade-perfect gameplay, classic shmups, or watching old-school tech get a second life in modern hardware, you're in for a treat.

In this video, we fire up Majestic Twelve (aka Super Space Invaders '91) on the MiSTer FPGA and showcase just how beautifully this Taito F2 core replicates the original arcade experience—no quarters required. Expect frantic action, flashing lights, and the kind of satisfying pew-pew sounds that only retro shooters deliver.

Whether you're a MiSTer FPGA enthusiast, a Taito arcade connoisseur, or someone who just wants to see what happens when retro magic meets modern tech wizardry, this one's for you. It’s shmup goodness with a nostalgic kick and a sprinkle of technical excellence.

Spoiler: There's a laser cannon. And maybe a cow abduction or two.
