The Retron HD.
I actually may buy this thing, especially since it is compatible with previously incompatible games like Castlevania 3.
I still wanna find out if there are still slight audio issues the previous models had.
But yeah, it may be worth it
Oh woops, did I accidentally post this in Arts?

As someone who's bought hyperkin products, its $40 hardware.
Set your expectations accordingly.

lmao alright man whatever you say. we used to get their $160 or whatever hyperkin 5s back broken out of the box all the time.
well, whatever you say man. I've known people with retrons that worked, and still work.
My point was, yes hyperkin products are typically cheap. And most agree the 5 was overpriced anyway.
So set your expectations accordingly.
Thank you. Have a nice day.
To clarify, I was essentially agreeing with you sir snowy
Nevermind. Not worth it.
moving on then
what's the appeal of these things anyway

ummm... pretty much meant for more casual retro gamers or people just getting into classic gaming.
They have nes clone consoles around that more accurately replicate the nes, and don't have some of the weird sound issues or incompatible games like the retrons have.
There's this one clone called like, analogue nt mini or something but it costs $400-500
Retrons are just cheap ways to play your existing carts. A quick replacement for maybe your old nes that no longer works.
This particular one, the HD, is meant to "compete" with the nes classic, but since they don't make em anymore, its the only widely available on right now.
so for someone like me who doesn't actually own any physical games older than probably mario 64, i guess their use is limited lol

I guess. I guess what I meant to say, is that they're for new collectors. Then when said collectors get a decent collection going, they can upgrade to a real nes, preferably the top loader
i guess that's where my unpopular opinion comes in

Lol. Yeah, guess so
That and the fact that this new one still has slight sound issues, I might not actually pick this up. At least not yet.
