The Hyperkin RetroN 5. The system that Joystiq describes as "kind of bananas." Let's talk about the important stuff. The Hyperkin RetroN 5 Gaming System specs:
Carts
It's called the RetroN 5 because it has 5 cartridge slots: one each for NES, SNES, Genesis, Famicom, and Game Boy Advance cartridges. You can play your original cartridges for any of these systems. You can also plug in Super Famicom, Mega Drive, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy cartridges as well.
Universal Chipset
Region locks and compatibility are no longer an issue. The RetroN 5 will play both PAL and NTSC cartridges. The aim is 100% compatibility with all cartridges for no problems with CIC lockout chips and FX chips.
Output
The RetroN has standard AV output, a USB port to allow for charging of the wireless controller, an AC Adapter to power up the system, and a HDMI output for HDTV connectivity.
But, you might say, why would I want to watch graphics from the 80s on my HDTV? The RetroN 5 up converts the video signal to show clearer and cleaner images, with vibrant colors on an HDTV with a resolution output of up to 720p through the use of shaders. You can also select the aspect ratio via the GUI, from the standard 4:3 to the HD ratio of 16:9.
And audio output quality is better, as well. Using audio interpolation, the RetroN 5 creates new samples between the originals for a smoother, crisper sound output than the original sound.

Wow, I thought I'm literally the only peson that does this. I did unsubscribe a few years back after he suddenly more or less stopped making videos. About a month ago I got the urge to look up his old videos and they still were awesome. Too bad that changed completely over the years. The channel is dead beside those streams.

The "plastic prong" one is for the UK. The plastic one is usually metal and earthed but it's longer because it opens the holes for the live and neutral pins, basically in the UK you can't stick things in the plug sockets and electrocute yourself without first sticking something in earth to open the live and neutral holes. It's a good system! :)

The RetronN 5 is overpriced junk as the included controller is a joke, the cart slots are super tight, which could damage the system and/or carts, the nonprofit emulation code Hyperkin uses was stolen from various sources without proper credit given too the original code creators(They are in legal trouble because of this). Also the emulation has various bugs that have not been addressed. I personally find it better too just own the original consoles, or hack your Wii with the Homebrew channel, as the emulators are 100% spot on accurate for all the games I've played.

@TXFDA 9 жыл бұрын

I agree, and disagree at the same time. Like..I agree with the controller being a joke, tight cart slots, and the fact that them using stolen stuff is stupid(and legally questionable), but at the same time, I think it could still be useful for people that have a ton of carts, but not a ton of room to set up multiple consoles. Personally, I'd just emulate on a PC. Hell, you could get a small mini-pc, and set it up JUST for emulation, and hook it up to a TV. Then place your cart on top of it when you play a rom and it'd be pretty much the same thing...but better. But..some people like it, so if they like it, then they can use it. If people are going to get it though, they need to hurry, because if the legal issues they're having causes huge problems, they might end up pulling the retron 5 from websites and stuff. There's already some stores that refuse to sell it because of it.

@andrester88 9 жыл бұрын

txfnero The retronN 4 actually did play the games... I have no idea why they went with this route. If one does an all in one like this, just get a RetonN 4. It's better than this.

@tetsujin_144 9 жыл бұрын

Andre Cruz There is no Retron 4. They skipped straight from Retron 3 to Retron 5.

@andrester88 9 жыл бұрын

Scope-Eye video man.. I just sounded like a total dumbass, didn't I? That's what I meant. I really thought it was called the RetroN 4. Well anyways, get the Retron 3. It basically does the same thing as the Retron 5, but without the whole emulation ROM dump. I still find it weird that HyperKin went the emulation route of all things.

@tetsujin_144 9 жыл бұрын

Andre Cruz Eh, we all make mistakes, you know? I think the emulation route is actually better for Hyperkin in a few ways: The hardware may actually be cheaper than the cloned console-on-a-chip stuff they were using (particularly when implementing multiple systems), because it's not specialized hardware at all... And going to emulation makes it possible to address some of the compatibility issues they've been facing with certain games. (Hyperkin doesn't make the Nintendo-on-a-chip hardware that they use, as far as I know, they just build a system around it. So they don't have a lot of control over those issues.) Plus, of course, it gets us HDMI with high picture quality. (NES in particular only supports composite, so the best possible signal you can get out of a stock NES or a clone is going to have all kinds of dot-crawl and color bleeding. It's possible that the clone hardware for Genesis and SNES doesn't include S-Video or RGB output either, in which case there's really no getting a good picture out of it.)

The reason for the plastic prong is because U.K. sockets are 240V, it is a protection against people getting their fingers in. The plastic prong activates a mechanism that opens up the two voltage items. Sometimes it is a metal prong to be used as a grounding cable.

From what I've been reading, it seems that the cartridges being so tight has become a bit more than just an inconvenience for some. People have reported that it can actually damage the pins inside the console, in some cases you can actually rip one or two of the pins completely out when trying to remove the cartridges. Just something you might want to keep an eye on. Absolutely love the channel! You have quickly become one of my all time favorite KZfaqrs.

Prong plug is UK. It's longer than the two 'power prongs' and as it penetrates the top hole (o0) it opens up the 'power holes' beneath which have little shields on them. Stops kids being able to stick stuff in the socket since they would need to simultaneously insert something in the top hole and one of the power holes.

The 3 square pin with one plastic prong is UK mains. The plastic prong is only a blank but serves to open up a safety gate built internally to some wall sockets and extensions. Stops idiots putting screwdrivers or whatever into the live socket and getting zapped. It's normally used as an earth in equipment that needs it so would have a brass pin instead. I think the other 2 round pin one is the rest of Europe
