Hyperkin RetroN 1 AV Gaming Console for NES (Gray) - NES

Nice little NES system. Plays everything just fine and it's really cheap. I also like the retro look of it. Just wish the controller cord was longer. You can buy extention cords for them though. I'd definitely recoment. Zapper games run great too!

Helping my original NES stay in good condition. I use this with the original carts. Works great. Will take original controllers.

The clear picture is from hyperkin, the first time putting the game in. The glitchy one is from the Nintendo original refurbished from Dkoldies. Hyperkin works perfectly, my boy even knocked it off the stand and never stopped working. The Original Nintendo refurbished took about 15 times to start and was glitchy and can't barely move the remote without freezing. My wife and I spent just over 200 on original console and games just to not even be able to really play because of freezing and glitches, so I took a chance on this hyperkin and I'm so glad we did. We are now enjoying our evenings like we did as kids.

The color was not good. It was not a good quality however, the controllers worked perfect.

I really am loving my Retron 1. It plays great and works with all my games I've tried on it. This is a great system to get if you are looking. Plus the colors and price are great.

I recently came into possession of a CRT television and attached my Retron 3 HD to it. While I loved that system, it unfortunately would not work with the NES Zapper when connected to the TV through the analog composite video connection.I had a suspicion that it was due to the video portion of the SOC and so opted for the Retron 1 AV (non-HDMI) unit to test. This device appears to work with light guns just fine. I've used 2 NES Zappers and 1 Hyperkin third-party Zapper and they work perfectly.The audio reproduction is good, not great with most games sounding reasonably accurate and the occasional audio chunkiness here and there.Video is a mixed bag. While the visuals look accurately sharp and colored, there are some noticeable artifacts in some games (though admittedly, this could be due to degradation of the ancient cartridges.) I also have an issue with the image being just a bit off center. The image appears to be shifted to the right about an eighth of an inch. It just barely cuts off the right side of the screen, but it is rarely an issue and hasn't affected gameplay and is easy to ignore, but it is an issue nonetheless.The device is compact and light, feeling a bit like a kid's toy... which it is, but for the price, it easily meets expectations and I don't get the feeling that it's going to fall apart in the near future.Overall, if you need a good, inexpensive, analog solution with great hardware compatibility, then this is an excellent device.

Me encanta la mini consola,porque es bastante compacta,es más grande un cartucho de nintendo que la consola.el control funciona perfectamente y con el adaptador para cartuchos de family queda muy completa.lo unico feo la calidad del cable AV, demasiado delgado.aun así la imagen se ve espectacular en el tv.llego rápido y sin ninguna novedad.

My only complaint is that you can't save with the N8 Pro Flash Card, which is kind of a big deal. I ended up buying the original NES just to be able to save.

Gráficamente cumple con los juegos ntsc, lo que no me gustó es que el sonido de los juegos se escucha diferente a la consola NES original debido a que esta consola hyperkin usa un chip de sonido distinto. Por eso no me gusto.

Nota 10

Funciona muy bien.Estamos contentos😉

Works great! Compact console.

The system itself is fine, I was tested it with both a PAL and NTSC cartridge, as well as a third party multicart. They all work fine although some multicarts may not be compatible with it. One thing to note is that the AV output seems to be NTSC, so while thats fine with my housemate's modern TV that accepts both PAL and NTSC video, on my old CRT TV everything shows up in black and whiteIf you plan to buy this to play it on a CRT TV for the proper retro experience, keep in mind that you will need to find a solution for this. I haven't tried it yet but I imagine that you need some kind of converter to turn the NTSC signal into PAL
