RetroN 5 HD Gaming Console (NEW)

System

The RetroN 5 has 5 cartridge ports supporting NES, Famicom, SNES, Super Famicom, Genesis, Mega Drive, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance. The RetroN 5 has an HD port with a maximum output resolution of 720p and supports up to 60 frames per second. Digital enhancement features are available for all game formats. PAL and NTSC versions of games are supported for HD upconversion and filters, even on NTSC televisions.

Side mounted SNES, NES, and Genesis controller slots allow for play with your original controllers. For those who want to go wireless, the bundled wireless controller has a range of over 25 feet. RetroN 5 offers the versatility to play the way you want. The rear SD card slot gives you the ability to expand your save memory and save screenshots. Screenshots are saved as JPEG images for easy sharing from your computer to popular social media sites. Finally, share that high score, epic platform jump, or secret warp zone.

Software

The RetroN 5 has an on-screen user interface bringing the comforts of modern consoles to retro gaming.

Game Genie is built in to make sure that your nostalgia isn’t killed by games more difficult than you remember. The RetroN 5 cleans up & upconverts your games to clean, crisp HD resolution. If you like it old school, you always have that option with the included “scanlines” video filter.

Dynamic controller mapping allows full customization, even with original controllers. The RetroN 5’s save state feature allows you to save at any point in your game and be able to come back exactly where you left off, no passwords needed. Access these features without ever having to end your play session or reset your game with a touch of the Home button, bringing the convenience of a modern console to retro gaming.

Controllers

Every RetroN 5 comes packed with a wireless controller. It features an D-pad, two shoulder triggers, a start and select button, as well as 4 macro and 8 controller buttons. All of these are programmable and can be mapped to any command through the settings menu. The controller also has four blue LED lights indicating its battery life, and recharges through an included Micro-USB cable which connects to the RetroN 5. It will be able to control the RetroN 5 and play all supported games.
