I love this thing. Games run perfectly exactly like the original consoles. Its not an emulation console so all original nes/snes/genesis accessories work. Flashcarts and multi carts work too. My only gripe is that colors are a little off on some nes games, and the sound is a little off on some genesis games. You probably won't notice unless you know your games really well. I haven't noticed any issues at all with snes games they seem to be perfect. Hdmi outputs at 720p and looks great on a 55 inch TV. Overall great console, all my old favorites on my living room TV!

The system is great, the controllers are crap. Like they are worse than the AT Games Genesis controllers. Thankfully you can use not one, two, but 3 controller types: NES, SNES, and Genesis controllers. Though none of them are cross-playable. If you want to play NES, you need an NES controller. There's small issues that vary for different Retron 3's, Some have an extra switch dial that's non-functional or one of the controller ports are a bit loose, Small issues, nothing major. For me, the NES cartridge slot really hangs on to my game and you need to really muscle it out. Its technically not a bad thing but they could of loosened it up a tiny bit. Its a fantastic product that costs about as much as a Super Nintendo and the games play nearly identical to identical. I ... MoreThe system is great, the controllers are crap.

I highly recommend it if you want to play SNES games because a SNES costs about as much but this comes with 3 systems instead of one.

So far only played nes and snes games on it but they look great. And play great. No gliches or nothing weird like that. The controllers are really nice as well. I was afraid they'd b cheapo junk but I was quite pleasantly surprised at how great everything is; the power cord, HDMI cable, controllers and the console itself. Even the box it came in was of high quality. Terrific product. If I could give it higher then 5 stars I wood.

This is a good console for what it does. What it does is play cartridges from NES, Genesis/Mega Drive and SNES/Super Famicom. The only one I haven't been able to test is Mega Drive, because I don't have any. With adapters, you can also play Famicom, Master System and Game Boy. Unfortunately, they didn't fix the issue that the Mega Retron HD has, where playing NTSC Master System games with an adapter (or flash cart) won't display correctly, forcing you to switch the console over to PAL to fix the error. This can cause some NTSC games to not run at the correct speed. While this isn't a documented feature, Master System compatibility has always been part of the Genesis hardware and it would have been nice if they had fixed the other.

This can cause some NTSC games to not run at the correct speed. While this isn't a documented feature, Master System compatibility has always been part of the Genesis hardware and it would have been nice if they had fixed the other. There are HD Genesis clones that run NTSC Master System games flawlessly.Playing games that it's meant to run works well. I've tested many NES, Famicom, Genesis, SNES and Super Famicom games without many errors. There are some NES and Famicom games that won't work due to them using special hardware, such as Afterburner. That game won't work on any clone console I've tried it on. However, I have found that this clone seems to be more compatible than others. I have some newer NeS cartridges that I got as Kickstarter rewards that other HD clones won't play or won't play well. They run great on this console. I've found no compatibility issues with the SNES (wasn't expecting any) and none with the Genesis. This console will even play some hard to play games, like Virtua Racer. Video and audio are what you expect from an inexpensive clone. Video is only 720p and some of the characters can kind of look blurry. However, it's still way more resolution than you can get from the original hardware without serious and expensive mods. The colors are a bit off, especially on the NES portion. But, this is what you expect from inexpensive clones. The sound is also slightly off. But, both video and audio will be close enough for most people.The biggest issue this console has is that it doesn't come with enough controllers. All of the controller ports are wired to their respective boards and there's no way to use the SNES or Genesis controllers to control the other portions of the console. This means the included Scout and Squire controllers won't work for the NES portion. If you have NES controllers already, you're set. If not, you need to get a controller for the NES portion separately. This could leave some people with no way to play NES games out of the box. This is inexcusable, since Hyperkin makes a really nice NES controller called the Cadet.All said and done, this console accomplishes a lot for $85. It does what it needs to and does it well enough for most people. Those who live and breathe these old games won't like the sound and video. But, those people shouldn't be looking at cheap clones anyway. For people like me who just have a bunch of old cartridges from back in the day and want to play them without the hassle of multiple consoles, it's perfect. However, not including a NES controller to keep costs down is inexcusable, and I've docked them a star for that. Even if including one made the console cost a bit more, I think a lot of people would think it was worth it. After all, if you don't have a controller already, you have to spend the money anyway.
I took a chance on buying this since I have never heard of it before. So, before purchasing I did some research which led to my final decision. The 3-in-1 concept of being able to play some of my favorite childhood games is just phenomenal. My only gripe with this would be the controllers. They are very generic and do not come close to what the original controllers were and felt like. They are rough and very hard to control, making it hard to do anything while playing. There were times where I could not tell if the wireless capability was failing or if the controller itself was stiff. I ended up having to purchase separate controllers for the respective consoles just to play my games. Still, overall it is a decent buy and does save you on some money with only buying ... MoreI took a chance on buying this since I have never heard of it before.

Overall, it's a good unit. The picture quality is amazing. I've never seen these games look so good. My only issue is that it occasionally is not responsive to controller input, and this was the case with multiple units. Aside from that, it's fantastic.
So the machine arrived on time for Christmas, and my kids were excited when they opened the box.We read and followed the instructions, and then, surprise, nothing works. I would highly advise against buying this machine. I really regret this purchase and should have just bought a switch and downloaded the retro games from there.
It was an okay purchase. It was the first time i had bought something like this. A gaming system of a non well known brand. I was lured in when i saw that it had wireless controllers. I got the system so I could play SNES games and to play them on a wireless controller sounded pretty cool. When I got the system and begin to play, i noticed that the controllers weren't working. i put in good batteries and still no reaction. I then found out that I had to be within like 3 feet of the system and be like straight in line with the little lense on the front of the system that reads the signal from the wireless controller. I had to call and email to figure out how to use the controller. There were no instructions on the box on how to operate the controller. All it had were ... MoreIt was an okay purchase.

I had to call and email to figure out how to use the controller. There were no instructions on the box on how to operate the controller. All it had were instruction on what the buttons would be for the system of gaming you plan on playing since this system could play 3 different systems. That was a bummer for me, having to use the controller within a short distance from the system. Reading that it had wireless controllers lead me to believe that I could play from the comfort of my bed or couch, yet i had to instead pull up a chair or sit on the ground right in front of the tv. i ended up having to get me the corded controllers. at least i could play a longer distance from the and didn't have to be within line of sight of the system. Again the system itself works great. I was just unsatisfied with the wireless controllers it came with. If I had known the controllers would be that much of a hassle, I wouldn't have made this purchase, at least not at the price i paid.
It functions great, there no problems reading any of the cartridges, & never freezes. I bought this to replace my original snes & sega genesis consoles so I could sell them. Unfortunately the genesis attribute of this system has a fatal flaw, the reset button. Example, in the X-Men game for genesis you need the reset button to proceed in the danger room levels. Pressing reset on the original genesis console will allow you to proceed but on the hyperkin retron 3 it does a complete reset. Another example, entering cheat codes on Sonic 2 such as level select, you can reset on original keeping whatever cheat codes already entered but pressing reset on retron 3 completely wipes it & reboots. At least it replaces my snes but my sega genesis is still useful. I hope I can ... MoreIt functions great, there no problems reading any of the cartridges, & never freezes.

I hope I can find a solution to reset function other wise I wont be able to beat x-men on the hyperkin retron 3. & because of this reset flaw, this product is valued too high.
My main concern when buying this was I was going to get some extremely cheap product that didnt feel or play well. I was pleasantly surprised to find the packaging that it came in and instructions were high quality. The console itself looked great and the controllers felt great as well. Nothing about the unit felt cheap or poorly made. I was even surprised that the company (Retron) included a retron sticker and thank you for supporting the brand note. Im happy with the console.
