As Dave said, any FPGA can support multiple soft core processors. 
There's _nothing_ that can be done in hardware on the PCB to better 
facilitate multiple cores in the FPGA. The only limitation is the size 
and speed of the FPGA device itself.

It's quite possible that the board itself was designed specifically for 
retro emulation - and there's several of those floating around - but the 
number of cores within the FPGA is neither here nor there. Are you 
thinking of the MiSTer board perhaps?
