Originally posted by JP32No what retron5 does is it dumps the rom from the cart and then just plays the rom on emulator, its completely worthless piece of plastic and anyone who uses or owns it should feel bad.
If you want to play on real snes, you need an flashcart like super everdrive(cheap but doesn't play superFX and SA-1 games), FX PAK/sd2snes plays them but is more expensive.
If you just want to play on TV then anything with HDMI output that runs emulators does the trick, your PC, laptop.. if you want something dedicated, I'll suggest Nvidia shield tv.
That's quite condescending.
Nice argument lol. Playing on retron5 is no difference than emulating(and its emulation is not even that good), and its worse and laggy actually, you have no access to roms it dumps, cant run roms off sd card, very poor build quality, it erases your saves in the cart, you cant play rom hacks, death grip on the carts(to point where you can physically pull off the cart connector off the retron5), they use stolen code and violated licensing of the emulators they used for long time..
Retron 5 is just not good product and there are many better alternatives, especially considering main topic here is to play SMW rom hacks.
