Re: The Smurfs - problem jumping high
Have you tried a different controller? Such as an OEM SNES controller? Even a Genesis or NES controller might work. I know they don't have the same button mappings but at least you may be able to jump and test it. The controller that comes with the Retron 5 really sucks. Love the console otherwise.

Re: Castlevania Circle of the Moon (GBA)
I use isopropyl alcohol and q-tips to clean my games. After I take the IPA to them I take a dry q-tip to, well, dry them off. After you do that I still recommend waiting about 15 minutes before playing. Some game boy advance games can take a little while to load though so don't read into that too mu...

Re: Unofficial Compatibility List
Is this list still active? I was looking for it to reference something but it doesn't seem to exist anymore.

Genesis games not working recently?
So does anyone else have a problem playing Genesis games since the 2.5 firmware update? I haven't played them recently but it seems that since the 2.5 update a lot of games I played in the past stopped working. For example Earthworm Jim, Sonic 3 and The Jungle Book fail to be recognized. The Retron ...

Super Mario World NES patch
Is anyone able to create a patch to convert a game into Super Mario World for the NES? Perhaps a patch on top of Super Mario Bros. 3?

Streets of Rage 3 Compatibility
Hi. Does anyone else have a copy of Streets of Rage 3 that works in their Retron 5? I'm running system softeware 0.3.0 and the new 2.5 update and the system won't even read the cart. It reads other carts just fine though. Unsure if this ever worked in my Retron because I just got the game yesterday....

Phantasy Star 3 Compatibility
So I see this come up infrequently but has anyone had any luck getting Phantasy Star 3 to work on the Retron 5? I got my copy from eBay yesterday and it wasn't even read by my console. It read other games just fine but not PSIII. If PSIII won't be read has anyone gotten PSIV to be read? I don't mind...

Re: Unofficial Compatibility List
Weird you're getting that. What firmware are you using? I've played Battletoads on my Retron 5 a few times and the game loaded fine. Almost beat the turbo tunnel too!

Re: FF7 NES Conversion Patch
That is easier than I thought it would be. Thank you for those steps. What are the pre-steps when dealing with SNES/SFAMICOM games?

Re: FF7 NES Conversion Patch
Awesome! I just sampled this and it works wonderfully! Thank you! If possible and if you're not too busy would you be willing to share the process of how to make a conversion patch?
