## Description

Hyperkin RetroN 5: HD Gaming Console for GBA/ Gbc/ GB/ Super NES/ Super Famicom/ Genesis/ Mega Drive/ Master System (Hyper Beach) - Super NES

Review: Simple n easy set up, and price is reasonable. - Came in faster then expected box was a little crumpled in some areas but did not affect product. Item works but after like 20 or 30 min of use time we have noticed a few issues. It freezes or glitches from time to time. One time it froze to where system had to be unplugged for outlet just to reset it. But when it plays it plays beautifully. Graphics, sound and color are awesome.
Review: Almost perfect, but not quite. - Really, this review is 4.5 stars. This console is a blast to use. I’ve got over 100 Genesis, NES, and SNES games on my shelf, and until now, I relied on emulation. But nothing beats the feeling of popping in a physical cartridge and jumping straight into gameplay. It’s nostalgic, satisfying, and just works. I usually avoid scanlines, but the implementation here is subtle enough that I forget it’s even on. The system includes all the modern quality-of-life features: save states, fast-forward, cheats, and even super easy ROM patching. That last one has me buying Famicom and Super Famicom games on eBay, currently I am patch titles like Legend of Zelda—it’s addictive. Sadly it's only one patch per game. It’s easy to use and genuinely fun, but it’s not without flaws. Reproduction cartridges are hit-or-miss. Most American releases like Moonwalker, Chrono Trigger, and Lufia II work fine. But translated imports like Clock Tower and Live A Live don’t boot—oddly, Back to the Future II and Bahamut Lagoon do. There is custom firmware that may fix all this, but I am just enjoying Deja Vu for the NES right now to care, and yes I added a patch to make it uncensored which I added a screenshot for. At $155, it’s a bit pricey. If you don’t care about save states, ROM patching, or support for Famicom, GBA, GBC, and GB, the Retron 3 HD might be a better value at around $60 less. But for my needs, this system is fantastic. Bonus: it comes with a SNES-style controller, which is a huge win—especially compared to the Retron’s default controller, which is laughably bad. * All screenshot has scanlines turned on.

## Features

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Whats the difference between the hyper beach retron 5 and the old retron 5?**
A: The color

**Q: Are there 2 or 1 controller that comes with it? Does this work with 851 game cartridge?**
A: As pictured, the Retron 5 Hyper Beach Edition DOES come with two controllers.

The Retron 5 WILL NOT work with multicarts such as the 851 game cartridge due to how the console operates (ROM from cartridge is dumped to the system).

**Q: when will this be back in stock?**
A: It’s hard to say, with the chips shortage it may be a long time, best to go in eBay and see who is selling one used.

**Q: Can this play 32x games?**
A: I’m not sureI don’t have any 32x games. It does play sega genesis games just fine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good console.
*by J***E on June 8, 2025*

System is well made. The controllers are a little different. But i may can get used to them. I like that the system doesn't have a death grip on the cartridges and you have so many options with this one. Highly recommend this product and would buy another one.
