Flip that hat backwards and pull up those baggy pants, dude. The 90s are back with the Hyperkin MegaRetroN HD, a premium retro console that plays Genesis (US)/Mega Drive (outside US) cartridges in brilliant 720p HD. It includes one (1) premium, classic-style "Squire" controller, a 3 ft. HD cable (supports 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio), and a 6 ft. Micro cable. You can even play via AV with the provided AV cable. Relive your childhood the right way, with the only powerhouse that can handle these 16-bit masterpieces in the modern age.

Hope you enjoyed this QUICK LOOK 😍 3 points to make! I totally skipped talking about input lag! Thankfully I really did not notice any while playing! Yay!!! It's a hardware solution, not emulation 😍 And third......No we were not paid for this.. ..but if Hyperkin wants to use the commercial at the beginning be my guest haha 🤘😍 Thanks for watching everyone! 😘

I’ve got the Retron 77. But with limited compatibility and the fact that my capture card doesn’t even detect it 90% of the time, I’m VERY skeptical about buying anything else Hyperkin. Not to mention the Retron 5 I have that took a s***. I’d be interested to know the shortcomings if any on this unit. I’m streaming on the 77 at 8pm tomorrow if it will cooperate...

Tidal Yacht mmm looks like hyperkin is in deep trouble, 1, many of their retron 5 systems are fragile inside, those pin connections are unreliable etc,,, 2, if hyperkin stole those emulators then they will get sewed by those company’s/ownders behind those emulators and they will also get nintendo and sega knocking on their door, hahaha.

The Genesis port has a death grip. I recently got a super nt, And I am getting the mega SG and plan on unloading my retron soon. Also input lag on SNES Is bad.

For the price it sounds very decent. Most of the other Sega Genesis/Megadrive options out there ness up the sound (looking you AT Games). I had a Retron 5, but was never happy with it (updates would never apply, constantly freeze, wouldn’t play some games). Recently I got a Retro Freak during a 50% off sale and am very happy with it. But even at 50% off a lot more expensive than this one. Great review.

@@PixelGameSquad same here man. I couldn't stop playing with mine. My only issue was when I ran the official Sega controllers, they reconfigured "up" on the d-pad as pause. It was weird. But with the Squire controller and a few third party controllers I own, they seem to be working fine on my console. There were some flaws on the Mega Retron, but they were minor and they don't bug me at all. This is easily one Hyperkin's best works, in my opinion. I also like how the Squire controller could run Forgotten Worlds, because normally if you used a six button controller, it meant instant death. Seems like they knew what they were doing.

That said, it looks like crap on the Trinitron in my game room, so as soon as I can afford to order the HDRetrovision cables for the system, I'll have it pumping out glorious RGB. I've got a Framemeister hooked up to my 4K TV, too, but I usually prefer to use the ol' SD TV for retro gaming these days. :)

My roommate got this system and this review is basically spot on. For what it is, it is a excellent way to play Genesis/Mega Drive games. If you have a Ever drive X5 also like my roomate, it 'technically' plays master system games too. But the graphics were very wonky/green looking. But I assume that is because the system was not designed for Master System in mind, so you can't fault it for that.

We have the Retron 5 which is also by Hyperkin which plays NES, Famicom, SNES, Super Famicom, Genesis, Mega Drive, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance. We got it because in the UK its so hard to find an original NES at a decent price, plus out Mega drive finally met its maker, so this was a perfect option for us. Weve now put away the snes and the game boys coz we just play it all on the Retron now.

@@PixelGameSquad I am kinda like you. The SNES is my favorite console ever, so I did get the Super Nt. I don't collect Genesis as heavy. So, I opted out of getting the new Analogue console. This will suit me just fine. The controller looks cool too.

Is this worth picking up for Sega Genesis games and everdrive?

I did see on some other videos that the everdrives work! Now which ones I'm not sure but if one does then pretty much all of them should. I'm considering on picking one up. I got a old genesis around but it's failing on me 😢 even after recapping it plus it's got hdmi so that's a big win 🏆

These Hyperkin clone consoles are definitely fine for the price, and its good that the option at this low price point exists. Personally I still prefer to play Genesis games on an original model 2 with the HD Retrovision component cable on a Sony Trinitron. I may upgrade to the Analog Mega SG at some point to get a high quality HD Genesis solution to play on my HDTV. I've already got an NES top loader with the Hi-Def NES mod installed and my goal is to eventually have all my fav consoles with Kevtris' HD mods but its definitely pricey. Someday.

Love hearing the way you play! And yes I fully agree that each clone console may better serve someone depending on how they prefer to play 🤘Thanks for watching amigo!

Loved the review brother. Unfortunately, after having the worst experience with the Retron 5, I told myself I would never buy another Hyperkin prouduct again.

Hey Aaron I already have a Genesis but I was curious does the 32x work with it
@PixelGameSquad 5 жыл бұрын
Do not hold me to this, but from what I understand is that it should since it is not emulation. But I will pin a comment once I find out from Hyperkin. I do not have a 32x anymore so i cannot check myself. ❤️

@@PixelGameSquad that's cool but integer scaling looks way off though. I wonder if the Mega retron can't tell if the game runs at 320x224 or 256x224 .. Seems like its a forced 4:3

Tbis thing tugged at my heart strings when I saw it looked like a Dreamcast. And one thing Hyperkin seems to always Excel at is the controllers, they are all very solid and that x91 like you have in the back is my current controller of choice for PC games and emulating on Retroarch, except mine is black. But question, how's the Sonic 2 sound? We're not getting any Atgames nonsense right?
@PixelGameSquad 5 жыл бұрын
Oh gosh! No ATgames vibes here haha Something my buddy pointed out is that even in the Sonic sound effects....you can hear the "ring" sound effects go through both ears which apparently many "clones" mess up. So props there! ❤️
