Retrons are garbage, so yes.

What a miserable "review". I could've written this review a month ago and I've never touched a Super Nt. It's just paragraphs listing off features without any criticism or indication that he even used the thing. His one criticism is no built in bluetooth? What the hell tech blogs, how do you even exist?

I would be interested if it did custom saves....... Maybe they will have a firmware update.

It's expensive, but (at the possible cost of some criticism) it might be worth it to me because Retroms won't play most repro carts. As someone who would jut be beginning to get into that library, repros are the cheap way to do it most of the time.

Gizmodo, nuf said.

Unless they expand the feature set , I'm sticking with my original one. Not enough to get me to change.

I find it strange that they are still keeping quiet about additional jailbroken "cores"

Also reasons why I didn't get it yet:
-Controllers not included
-No analog (I mean your name is Analogue!!!)
-Questionable design choices, no eject, have to pull out with both hands, cant be good for the connections.
SD slot has not point except for firmware updates

Honest question, what is the advantage to purchasing repro carts vs just downloading a rom? Not judging, just don't get it.

Price?

Many people lump repro cart and ever drive into the same category. Retron can't run either one as far as I know.

Price on this is nuts. Should have been $100 to $125 tops.

190 plus shipping AND no controllers included as mentioned...

This thing can suck my dick, choke on it.

They do run repros, it just depends on what kind. A cart of Mother 3 on the GBA, for example, will run, your average run of the mill pirate cart with the 100 in 1 games or whatever, won't be recognized by the whitelist, and thus the retron will refuse to load it.
