Hi Everyone, In case anyone may be interested I've been recording some of my game footage. Some PS4 and Wii U stuff but a lot of it is from my Retron 5. There's no commentary yet as I really don't talk much while I play. I swear once in a while but seeing as I play myself even that's rare. Subscribe...

Is anyone able to convert the patch at the following link to one that is suitable for the Retron 5? I've tried doing so myself and failed miserably.

Hello all, So now that the Retro Freak is out what is everyone's opinions on it? Especially compared to the Retron 5. I don't have a Retro Freak but I love my Retron 5. After reading about the RF it looks nice but I think the Retron 5 is going to be the overall better console. I like how it's an all...

Ah, I understand. Well, how about just using Splatterhouse 2 (USA) rom? That's the cartridge I have and there don't appear to be any other versions other than the European one. Another thought though. Splatterhouse originally came out for the Turbografx 16 and not the Genesis. Is this conversion sti...

It saves right to the Retron 5. If you want to put your save on the cartridge you'll have to use the copy save to cart feature from the Retron 5 interface.

I never thought about that. Does it matter? I was thinking Splatterhouse 2 or 3. Perhaps maybe Sonic 1 or 2 since those are easier to obtain? I have them but in case someone else wants this and it can be done with those.

I know this may not be likely but does anyone know of any or is able to create a conversion to turn a Genesis or SNES game into Splatterhouse 1? I know it may be unlikely given that it's on a completely different system but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Hello all! Can anyone recommend a replacement power supply for the Retron 5? Mine still works and all but the cable is too short. :-\

Ah! Another tip came to mind. Find yourself an NES-Famicom (72 pin to 60-pin) converter on eBay. Put Castlevania 3 on that converter and then put the whole thing in the Famicom slot. The Retron will tell you the Famicom slot is in use but will still read the game properly. Unsure if you have familia...

A question for you. How do the Famicom pins look? One thing I've noticed is that if the pins in one slot are bad it can affect the slots behind it. A problem that I had several times were that the NES pins would get jacked up and create a short causing other slots behind it to have issues. For examp...
