Hyperkin's Retron 5 gaming console - console
(hx) 10:57 AM CET - Mar,24 2013 - Post a comment
Good news for fans of old video games - accessories maker Hyperkin is unveiling RetroN, a retro console that will play almost any cartridge you can throw at it. The current version is the RetroN 3, which plays NES, SNES, and Genesis games. But Hyperkin is taking the RetroN to the next level (actually two more levels) with a brand-new product called the RetroN 5. In addition to NES, SNES, and Genesis, the RetroN 5 will play cartridges from Famicom (the Japanese version of NES) and Game Boy Advance. The GBA slot is compatible with Game Boy Color and the original Game Boy, so the RetroN 5 can actually play games from seven systems. Perhaps best of all, the RetroN 5 brings HDMI capability and a host of features designed to make retro gaming feel slightly more modern.

Yes, many of you already use emulators on a PC to play ROM copies of old Nintendo and Sega games. But playing ROMs of copyrighted games generally isn't legal, even if players are unlikely to be prosecuted. You can use the RetroN with a clear conscience because it plays the original game cartridges, and you can even use the original controllers if you still have them lying around.



There's no firm price, but at the Midwest Gaming Classic this weekend (video below), reps from Hyperkin said that it would be less than $100. That will include two Bluetooth wireless controllers, but an array of six controller ports on the console itself will let you use your old pads if you'd rather.
