Review: Great, accurate Retro game Emulator - Story time: I originally bought a Retro-bit 3+ for $90 and I wanted to like it so badly. The RB3+ played NES/SNES/MD, which was all I needed, and it looked so nice with its smooth lines and red/white retro aesthetic. Welp, you get what you pay for... the RB3+ was a huge disappointment. I got the RB3+ to avoid the Hyperkin Retron 5 because reviews of Hyperkin products are such a mixed bag. Unfortunately, the RB3+ turned out to have terrible audio emulation (games will not sound the way you remember them), cheap build quality (the cart dust covers got scratched to all heck as soon as I started sticking carts into them), and game compatibility issues (multiple carts just would not play even after multiple cleanings and endless attempts to re-seat the pins). The Retron 5, by contrast, has been an excellent experience. I've played GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SNES, and MD games on it with no problems whatsoever. Games that I had to re-seat numerous times or just wouldn't launch at all on the RB3+ work on the Retron 5, first try. The console has an efficient and simple front-end/system management menu, which is nice. It isn't earth-shattering stuff, but it has plenty of basic options that allow you to customize your gaming experience to some extent. I like the option to add two types of scanlines: subtle and heavy (and none, of course). You can also use navigation sound effects or turn them off, and lots of other stuff. The only things I don't love are 1) the controller ports are all on the sides instead of on the front, so you have to take that into account if you are short on space, and 2) the overall design is kinda... let's just say it will never hang in the Louvre. But it does what it's supposed to do, so I can't hold that against it. Both of these are minor niggles -- the Retron 5 is good value for the money to gain access to 6 old systems (8 if you count the GG/MS adapter for another $50) and so far has shown to have great emulation quality and a very high compatibility rate as I haven't found any games yet which don't work (full disclosure: my collection isn't very big, so take that for what it's worth). I'm really liking my time with this console. Oh, before I forget: I've seen some people saying they like the pack-in controller. That's cool, people can like what they like. But, dude... it's flaming, hot garbage. I mean, I don't care because I'm using high-quality repro controllers for the systems it can run (ironically, Retro-bit makes some really good controllers for cheap), but let's call the balls and strikes here... the pack-in controller is pure trash. Cheap feel, sharp edges, face buttons feel terrible, shoulder buttons somehow feel worse, and what they heck even IS that weird joystick/nub/thing? Also, the process for wireless connection isn't done the way the manual explains it (I forget what the exact issue was, I just know I had to do some experimentation to get it to connect and it wasn't the way the manual laid it out). The face button labeling is also weird and unlike anything I've ever seen. I keep it perched on the back in its little alcove strictly for the purpose of navigating the menu if I'm too lazy to grab one of my not-crap controllers, unravel the cable, plug it in, etc., but I actively avoid touching that abomination. Again, I don't care because I don't use it and the console is absolutely still worth what you pay for it, but don't let anyone tell you this controller is anything other than what it is... which is terrible. Spend another $15 or so and get some decent SNES or Genesis pads and you'll be much happier. Heck, even the fourth-rate knockoff Playstation 1 pads I got 8 years ago packed in with some bootlegged Singaporean emulator box is better than the Lovecraftian horror Hyperkin tossed in my lap and tried to convince me was a gaming controller. Yick. Anyway, the Retron 5 is awesome... great value for money, especially if you have (or plan to have) a multitude of 8- and 16-bit carts to play. Don't be afraid to take the plunge on this. Highly recommend!
Review: Awesome console!! - Works absolutely great, the wired controller works great but I haven’t fully tested the wireless controller yet. I love this console! I played this and gave it a full test for several months before deciding I was willing to give up my original consoles. Nothing will ever beat the originals but with this one having an HDMI port and working so well, it saves a lot of space and much less wire clutter to have to deal with. I was going to keep all my original controllers but there’s not much use as SNES was always my favorite anyway and these controllers have the same exact feel! The only original controllers I decided to keep was my Sega Genesis ones. So happy with this console and have had zero issues and July will be a year of owning this. I’m tempted to buy another as a spare in case I need it in the years to come. Seems to be very well made and the graphics are a big improvement to the original consoles, crystal clear picture! I’ve had other retro consoles that are suppose to play all the old consoles but nothing compares to this Retron5! Good job Hyperkin, I’ve been a long time fan for years and the company seems to be improving every time there’s a release! Look forward to seeing what else is to come!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Whats the difference between the hyper beach retron 5 and the old retron 5?**
A: The color

**Q: Are there 2 or 1 controller that comes with it? Does this work with 851 game cartridge?**
A: As pictured, the Retron 5 Hyper Beach Edition DOES come with two controllers.

The Retron 5 WILL NOT work with multicarts such as the 851 game cartridge due to how the console operates (ROM from cartridge is dumped to the system).

**Q: when will this be back in stock?**
A: It’s hard to say, with the chips shortage it may be a long time, best to go in eBay and see who is selling one used.

**Q: Can this play 32x games?**
A: I’m not sureI don’t have any 32x games. It does play sega genesis games just fine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the best way to play classic video games on a modern TV
*by D***. on February 17, 2015*

I've had this or about a month and have been very happy with it. Productivity around the house is at a new low, thanks to the Retron 5. I've been collecting games for these systems since they were new and still have all of my original consoles. They look great on a CRT TV, but not so much on these new-fangled HDTVs. Originally, that was why I purchased one of these; so I could keep my original consoles hooked up to TVs they were designed to be played on and to use this for the living room TV. But I've gotten much more out of it. First of all, the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance games look phenomenal. So much better than through the Gamecube's GB adapter. That alone made my purchase feel worthwhile. Secondly, the cheat codes. I'm not a big fan of cheat code usage, but have to admit it has been a ton of fun sitting down with my 6-yr old son and playing through 2-player co-op games together without any frustrations. It's a great way to kill 30-45 minutes and see areas of a game I've never been able to make it to personally. Thirdly, game patches. So much potential here! I installed a patch that alters the common Tetris NES game (not the Tengen one) to include 2-player co-op. My wife and I have spent hours playing it, and she hasn't played a classic video game with me in ages. There are also tons of fan translations for games that never made it to the States and many of those games are still dirt cheap to import. Quality of the hardware is still questionable and I sincerely hope it's still running a year from now. The pack-in controller isn't as bad as some people say, but I still prefer using the original controllers. I find the shoulder buttons are easily hit on accident, but having the extra buttons for taking screenshots or fast-forwarding un-skippable parts is very handy. There have been a few games that I've had some issues with (graphical glitches, game locking up at certain parts), but they have been very few. I've reached out to Hyperkin on their Facebook page and they gave me a personal response about trying to have the issues fixed in the next firmware release. That really impressed me. Overall, I'm very impressed.
