One Console Plays SNES, NES, Mega Drive and Soon, Game Boy Advance on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Considering replacing old cartridge consoles or tapping into the retro market? One machine to play them all.

Many accessories and gadget manufacturers have capitalised on older hardware by releasing bundles or clone consoles with built in game collections. But what about using original cartridges? The Hyperkin RetroN 3, as spotted by Wired, has bundled a SNES, NES and Mega Drive (Genesis) into one handy unit and is compatible with original controllers.

A newer model, the RetroN 4 will be revealed later this month, adding customisation controller buttons, Game Boy Advance support plus HDMI output for those wishing to hook up the set to HD teles.

This looks great & would be wonderful to cover the holes the Virtual Console like lacking like TMNT Turtles in Time, NBA Jam T.E., Killer Instinct, Uniracer, The Lion King, Aladin & a BUNCH of others.

It is not wise to speak on subjects you do not know all facts about, nor is it smart to judge a game based on looks alone. PSN: Nintendo_Gamer 3DS: 4296-3029-7422

Is it available to shop online for it, if it was I would so get it but it would be so overpriced for what its really worth,.... I might be wrong I have some of the games that Vorash Kadan posted but I also have Megaman X on SNES. The only problem is I dont have the systems for it. Ill actually take this Forum Idea into Consideration.

If you have Uniracers I'd gladly buy it off of you & even pay for the shipping MYSELF!! That game was an awesome stunt racer & needs a sequel if not added onto the WiiU & 3DS VC at least!!

Sry I dont have Uniracers,...U mad bro XD. If you have Sega Genesis I have Sonic 2, World Series Baseball, Chameleon Kid, and an NBA game. If you want to see more games that I could show you I have a Sega Genesis booklet see and on the back it has all the Sega Genesis games on the back that were made. I thought if I posted a picture you would see what it is like thats if you have a Sega Genesis. After the pic post ill have a Colossall list of the game in order as it says on the back of the booklet. Remember,... if you have it. I hope you would take the booklet of games into consideration. If you have Sega Genesis o.0
