Plays every capable game perfectly
Love my retron 5 emulator. It does everything I hoped it would and more. It’s great playing the classics again…
I use this all the time on my HDTV instead of busting out my old consoles and hooking them to my little CRT.I had always heard good things about how Hyperkin handles warranty concerns. I was about 5 months past my warranty period and had accidentally kicked the power cable out of the console breaking the rear board. I emailed Hyperkin to see if they would sell me just the board so I could solder it in. Well, to my surprise, one of the warranty department employees sent me an email asking for the proof of purchase info to give me a RMA number. I sent the info and said I understand not covering this since it’s out of warranty and I basically broke it being clumsy. They went ahead and had me send it in and sent me a brand new, sealed unit within a couple of weeks.I’m blown away with this customer support. I will be buying more Hyperkin products in the future.
Love it if you’re a gamer you NEED this
No problems so far. I really love the way that you can create save states, customize buttons, and the enhancements to graphics (not sure what the technical term for how they do it is). I would however recommend also buying a true retro controller like a snes controller if you don’t have one. The included controller does the job, but it feels a little cheap and I would rather use the d-pad on a retro controller than the analog stick on the Retron5
Product was very well packaged and as advertised. Box in very good condition as was the retron 5. The package even arrived one day earlier than expected.
Just wished they had a separate audio output!For the cheapies out there, you can download your roms, and convert it to IPS with a converter program.That way you have access to all retro games!All you need is one cartridge of each console you’d want to play a game on.I spent $50 for the Sega game gear adapter, then spent $20 on about 8 game cartridges (averaging at just over $1 per cartridge), ranging from the Japanese gameboy and famicom cartridges, to sega gamegear, and NES cartridges. Games on the cartridges sucked, but you can load an IPS over it, so basically the cartridge enables you to load the correct console for the games on the SD card.If you’re not into this illegal actions, you can also purchase legit games, and load them in the Retron 5. Or download ROMS and convert them to an IPS, of the games you already own; and then play it.The benefit is, if you have lots of cartridges already, you don’t need to unpack them, just run them from SD card.I think most people will spend a few hours for nostalgia purposes on this machine, but since the age of the games, these games probably won’t be played regularly!The Retron 5 has HDMI output, but no separate stereo out! So, unless you have a soundbar, accepting HDMI signals, or a headphones jack on your TV, you’re stuck with the TV speakers.The best image is to just run the native resolution, or upscale it by 2x, 3x or 4x (640×480 x2 = 1280×960, or x3 = 1920×1440, or x4 = 2560×1920); or let your TV stretch the image.The image is razor sharp on my 4k TV, using 4x upscaling.I don’t use the internal scalers. They make the image look weird.Retron 5 doesn’t accept generic bluetooth controllers, so you got to buy a few of the original Retron 5 controllers, or original gaming console controllers.The only problem with the SNES controllers are that the cables are pretty short.USB controllers also aren’t supported!
This shop was awesome dont let anyone tell you differently, but the Retron5 is a product that is awesome in theory. I bought two of these to make sure what I was experiencing was true. The RetroN5 is the perfect machine if you want to play retro games, but do not have the space for so many different units. This unit can play 5 plus different classic consoles including game-boy games. My issues with the unit is the flaws in consistently with different Retront5’s. units The first one I got would not use my SNES controllers like it said it should, but I almost kept it because of how awesome it played everyone thing else. I am someone who wants to be able to play game I played when I was 10 long in to the future and this system is 90% their. The next one I got also did not play my SNES controller again but also would not pair with the provided controller. I wanted this unit too work so much that I went out and found a newer designed SNES controller and it worked just fine. I played a range of different games and even played a full session of Pokemon blue using a NES and it was fun. If you are in the market for a all in one retro system this might be what you need. I only have to say you might have to find a work around for a few controllers. As far as game play the images looks very good on an 65 inch HD tv with many things to make it even nice in the settings, but I did find that with some games that require fast reflexes their is a small lag, but that is very very common with any system like this on the market. In the end I needed this machine in my life, but some people may need to find work around to make it perfect you them.
Love it! Had it for months and still going strong.
Wer hätte das gedacht, die Retron 5 ist der Knaller schlechthin !Dieses Gerät spielt so gut wie alle Spiele der Nintendo NES, FC (Famicom), SNES, SFC (Super Famicom) Gameboy, GBC & GBA-Ära & zwar aus aller Welt (Regionfrei) !Nebenbei laufen auch die 16Bit Klassiker des Sega Mega Drive & die vom Sega Genesis (japanische & amerikanische Version der 16Bit-Konsole), welche auch bei uns damals in den 90gern weit verbreitet war !Vorrausetzung, man sollte schon ein HD-fähiges Fernsehgerät besitzen, denn man kann die Retron 5 nur mit den beiliegenden HDMI-Kabel anschließen.Das Ausgabesignal der Konsole ist dabei in 720p, was für den Zweck völlig ausreichend ist.Standartmäßig hatten die Spiele damals auch nur eine 320 x240 p Auflösung & ein normaler Fernseher konnte nur bis zu 640 x 480 p darstellen.Jetzt hat man die Wahl ob man sein Spiel in Originalauflösung mit stark verkleinerten Bild, oder gestreckt auf ganzer HD-Bildschirmgröße genießen möchte.Es ist auch möglich das Bild komplett nach seinen Wünschen anzupassen , von der Größe & auch von der Pixeldarstellung her, wie es für einemam angenehmsten ist.Wer auf die pixelige Grafik der 2D Bitmap-Ära nicht so steht, kann zusätzlich auch noch verschiedene Weichzeichner aktivieren.Nur ich finde das zerstört etwas den Retrolook, denn ich persönlich liebe die pixelige 2D Bitmapoptik.Gestreckt auf ganzer Bildschirmgröße, mit aktivierten Bildschirmzeilen sieht es fasst so aus wie damals am Röhren-TV.Mit dem Unterschied das das Bild nun klarer & schärfer ist als ein normaler Fernseher es darstellen kann.Ich besitze immernoch meine ganzen 8 und 16Bit-Klassiker aus den alten Tagen.Teilweise ist schon der Batterriespeicher der Module defekt, aber teilweise konnte ich diesen nun für die Ewigkeit sichern.Die Retron 5 speichert jedes Spiel entweder intern im Speicher der Konsole oder auf eine SD-Karte ab.Man kann seine alten Speicherstände vom Modul einfach rüberkopieren und umgekeht, ja das klappt auch !Zusätzlich kann man bei einem la.
