| 4971 | Article | Benjanime | @blueluigi i wasn't too interested in the retron 5 myself until i heard about an exploit that can make the system run actual rom files, definitely a solution when it comes to scalpers selling games on ebay for a steep price. i may invest in a raspberry pi myself in the future, but for now i'll see how the retron goes for me. | Jul 19, 2019 |  | |
| 4970 | Article | blueluigi | I bought a RetroN 5 a few years ago. I enjoyed it for a little bit, and it was great to be able to use it as a way to run translation patches for certain Japanese games. I played the original Fire Emblem on the RetroN 5 for a little bit, before my entire team was wiped out, and I was only left with Marth to fight with. Eventually, as I purchased the XRGB Framemeister, and started looking into other ways of getting RGB out of my old consoles, the novelty of the RetroN 5 began to wear off for me. As I tried the RetroN 5 again, I soon realized that using the system doesn't feel that much different than running an emulator on my computer, or even using a Raspberry Pi. And also, I find the emulation on the NES and SNES Classic to be much better than the RetroN 5's emulation. The RetroN 5 is good as a cheaper and simple way of running retro games on your HDTV. But me personally, I'm so over emulation based clone consoles that run on cartridges. To me, I don't find those to be nearly as satisfying, especially when the console doesn't actually run the games straight from the cartridge. I find that if I were to ever buy another clone console that runs cartridges, then I would rather go for a system on a chip, like the FPGA consoles that Analouge makes, as those actually recreate the original hardware, and is not emulation based like other clone consoles are. | Retron 5 Review | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4969 | Article | Benjanime | i just thought i'd preface the main reason why i wrote this article, nintendo didn't seem to do anything to celebrate the game boy's 30th anniversary, so i thought i'd talk about one of its first games that released with the handheld. thanks for reading! | The Bizarre World of Super Mario Land | Jul 18, 2019 | |
| 4968 | Article | pikachulover | I had a bunch of those items growing up. The Ducktales book, the Little Mermaid book, The Snow White and Disney Mother Goose books on tape. The Mother Goose one was one my favorites to listen to and I had it memorized. Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby but the book and cassette version. A knockoff Super Soaker, Beauty and the Beast stickers, and the McDonald's Tamagotchi toy. I had the poster of the cat with the Teddy bear and the Safety in Numbers one. I remember what a big deal that Save by the Bell poster was in my 4th grade class. I think you got it free with an order from the book club. I think I purposely didn't order books so I would not get the poster. | Temple of Retro Toys | Jul 17, 2019 | |
| 4967 | Article | Vaporman87 | Thanks for the kind words Old School! We enjoyed getting this series going! | Batman 1989 Movie Merchandise | Jul 14, 2019 | |
| 4966 | Article | Benjanime | if i recall, 1991 was when both the beetlejuice and ghostbusters cartoons ended, so it's kind of odd seeing toylines coming out at such a late time, especially when the real ghostbusters was starting to have really bad episodes late in the series. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '91 | Jul 12, 2019 | |
| 4965 | Article | Mr Magic | @Caps: Chorus: Just for the taste of it. Diet Coke! Alfred: Ahh. | Batman 1989 Movie Merchandise | Jul 03, 2019 | |
| 4964 | Article | OldSchool80s | Loved the YouTube episode! So fun and so well done. Nice work. | Batman 1989 Movie Merchandise | Jun 26, 2019 | |
| 4963 | Article | jkatz | Well, the ad had the opposite effect on me...unfortunately by the time I saw it, the number was long out of service. Back on topic: they recently re-released the Danny Elfman soundtrack on vinyl with nifty new artwork. And how can you overlook the action figure of Bob, the Joker's loyal henchman? You can even see him in the pictures you posted. | Batman 1989 Movie Merchandise | Jun 24, 2019 | |
| 4962 | Article | Vaporman87 | Jkatz: I do remember the Bugs/Daffy ad on the VHS. Though it never persuaded me to take any action. | Batman 1989 Movie Merchandise | Jun 23, 2019 | |
