Where would one have to start from to build a machine like this over the summer? I guess I`d have to design the instruction set off of assembler at the beginning and then plan the hardware.

You cannot be expecting to buffer the whole scene/frame in the FPGA chip there simply is not enough SRAM internally you can however use some of these to Cache to reduce some of the bandwidth requirements.

Most of the things you need can be fetched during the Horizontal Blanking and Front and Back porches.

I have some interresting VHDL code perhaps since i have been working on a reimplementation of the Amiga chipset.(not the MiniMig)

I would Love to see some of your reseach into the matter since i am being too bogged down implementing to do research in improvements.
