I was amazed on how amazing it played. Make sure you have a TV that takes an RGB cable. (Yellow, red, white cord). It looks amazing with an HDMI converter. It's very light weight.

    • Great for testing old games!
Color: Silver/Black

    • Truly a great buy.
Color: Silver/Black
This system is awesome. Great for endless hours of NES AND SNES fun. Play many classic NES titles, Super Mario triliogy, Legend Zelda, Mega Man, Tutrles, etc. As well as SNES classic Super Mario World, A Link to the Past and Starfox. It uses the SNES style controllers, which does not allow use for the classic NES controller, or NES zapper. It is unable to play certain games: Battletoads for NES. The game hangs after level 2, though a cheat allows you to jump to level 3. Digger T. Rock: Legend of the Lost City plays title screen,but MANY in-game crashes and graphic glitches that, render it unplayable. For Duck Hunt NES Zapper cannot be plugged in. Does work with NES to SNES adapting cables that have accessory support. However, that NES Zapper only works with a CRT TV set. Maniac Mansion just doesn't play. Paperboy controller is not recognized. That's really it for NES which isn't too bad honestly. A much larger list for SNES. Most notably is Super Mario RPG, due to the NES PAL. Also ALL NES accessories DO NOT and CANNOT work unless NES to SNES adapter. That includes R.O.B. NES Zapper, Power Pad, NES Advantagem NES Max and Power Glove. Also the NES Game Genie does not. Also does not play Famicom games. Still, probably the best clone system of them all. Many clone systems struggle with Castlevania III. Works just fine on this. Star Fox is another many clones struggle with. Again not this one. Super Game Boy adapter works great. SNES game genie works great. Super Famicom games almost usually work. Retro-Bit RetroGEN Adapter Genesis to SNES Cartridge Adapter works great allowing Genesis games to play on i. System is not perfect. But much cheaper than getting a NES & SNES. Plays most games great. ... show more

    • Excellent for the budget retro gamer! Diehard collectors however...
Color: Silver/Black
When I first heard about the retro duo I knew it would be the perfect solution for my dad. He enjoys a very select few old nes/snes games and thats it. The product works very well. The design and function is pretty solid. The contacts on the system itself for the composite cables seem a bit cheap, however they worked fine. As far as gameplay goes it worked well with every game I tested including Super Mario RPG which was said to not be compatible. However it did have some sound quality issues depending on how loud your TV volume is. I tested it on a LCD and old style CRT and it was the same result. This is understandable considering it is a knock off product. The music specifically is where this was an issue. Certain games would have a echo or distortion effect during certain parts of the music. One game in particular "Jackal" for the NES had horrible sound issues. The music and SFX were constantly trying to drown each other out causing nothing to be heard most of the time. **NOTE** All of the function complaints are sound related issues. If you don't care about the sound then disregard all of this. The only game that didn't work immediately upon first boot was Fester's Quest for the NES. It eventually worked and yes it had been cleaned prior to the first boot. My dad is very pleased with this unit and plays all of his favorites on it. If your looking to play some old retro games and don't want the burden of hunting down the original systems, or taking up space for two consoles its perfect. If your a serious collector however and want the best quality for your retro experience, I would suggest you find a real NES/SNES. The only use this would be to a collector is if they wanted a system to take on the road or reduce the wear and tear on your official units. Overall I'm quite pleased with the product, considering the cost is substantially cheaper than a real NES/SNES. ... show more

    • Bought this to keep the "miles" off of my originals and for a "garage" setup.
Color: Red/Black
This console claims to play NES and SNES games and I've found it to do so well. I've essentially bought it so for a few reasons. I have a big CRT TV in my garage I'd like to play NES/SNES (my consoles are inside) and I'd love to preserve my original consoles. After doing a painful amount of research I had learned that the retro duo was the most compatible out of the current lineup of clones. They all seem to have a fatal flaw and in this case it had been said that the NES sound was a bit wacky. Almost like the sound is distorted from being over driven. I had actually bought the parts needed to "fix" the sound on the NES side. I'm not sure if later version 3.0 models we're revised but the sound for the NES sounds pretty clean and very close to the original. No mod needed. I'm more than satisfied with the NES performance. I actually pulled my apart and the NES on a chip is much different then the pictures I had seen online. It appears they have improved it although I did notice that Castlevania III no longer works. The SNES side is wonderful. You would be hard pressed to find irregularities on the SNES capability. You know what else is pretty cool about this? It uses SNES ports and this has a benefit to the NES side as well. Both the NES and SNES used the same gamepad controller chip. If you're handy with wiring you can pick up an NES and a SNES extension cable, cut them open, match the colors and splice it back together to make yourself an adapter to use an NES controller. The included controllers are not bad and can get you by but I'd recommend you round up the originals for sure. The game slots themselves tend to really hug the cartridges. Especially the NES. The fix that I ended up with was to just keep my game genie in the slot so I'm not wrecking the console itself. You should really make it a point to find the originals but this clone console is not bad! EDIT: I decided to do a side by side comparison of Super Mario Bros. and Kickle Cubicle. The Retro Duo is spot on. Sound and all. I also decided to create an NES to SNES adapter so that I could plug in an NES controller. Fortunately, the SNES gamepad has the same gamepad microcontroller as the NES except that it has two of them to drive the extra buttons. This means they are essentially the same. I purchased a Retro-Bit SNES 6-Feet Extension Cable and an NES extension cable also by retro-bit. The wire coloring differs from the authentic NES/SNES wiring. Here is how they are laid out: NES extension cable Pin # / Color 1 brown 2 orange 3 black 4 red 5 yellow 6 blue 7 green SNES extension cable Pin # / Color 1 green 2 blue 3 yellow 4 red 7 black Here is how you need to wire them together: SNES Side / NES Side green / yellow blue / orange yellow / black red / red black / brown That's all. Now you can use a NES controller to play your NES games with the retro duo. Source of NES/SNES pin layout: [...] ... show more
