| 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. | Jul 19, 2019 |  | |
| 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. | Retron 5 Review | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4972 | Article | Vaporman87 | I'm glad to learn you're getting some good mileage out of that RetroN 5 you saved up so long for. You earned it sir! | Retron 5 Review | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4973 | Article | Vaporman87 | Man... that anniversary flew right under the radar didn't it. At least it gave you the opportunity to dig into the finer points of a piece of it's library. Well done. | The Bizarre World of Super Mario Land | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4974 | Article | Mr Magic | Squidward was a jerk. But a likeable jerk. | My introduction to SpongeBob SquarePants | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4975 | Article | Benjanime | @Mr. Magic you have to admit though, there was that moment in pizza delivery when he stood up for spongebob after a disgruntled customer gave him a taste of reality, seeing squidward put his cynicism aside to help spongebob is pretty rare. | My introduction to SpongeBob SquarePants | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4976 | Article | Mr Magic | All that bickering over a drink. Which the customer never ordered. Glad Squidward stepped up and gave the customer a taste of his own medicine. | My introduction to SpongeBob SquarePants | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4977 | Article | Benjanime | @vapor i think the icing on the cake was this being my 50th article, haha. i'm definitely loving this thing :) thanks again for gifting it and i'll have tons more articles on the way! | Retron 5 Review | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4978 | Article | Rick Ace Rhodes | I just got the Retron 3 for my birthday last year. I originally wanted the 5 but after seeing all the negative reviews talk about the same issues with the console, I realized the 3 was a safer bet. | Retron 5 Review | Jul 19, 2019 | |
| 4979 | Article | Rick Ace Rhodes | I remember the promo campaign in the beginning. Nickelodeon really was hyping up SpongeBob to be their next big Nicktoon. | My introduction to SpongeBob SquarePants | Jul 19, 2019 | |
