Title: RetroDuo Portable Video Review - SNES & NES 2-in-1
Post by: satoshi_matrix on February 15, 2012, 10:42:57 am
Hey guys, I thought I'd share with you my video review of the newly released RetroDuo Portable. This unit is the third of the portable SNES clones, but is third time a charm? I've split this review into two parts - hardware review and games compatibility stress test. I should have the second part up tomorrow. When I do, I'll add it to this thread.

for now, the hardware review

And again, for those curious on my thoughts on the other two portable SNES clones:

Yup. here's the much anticipated part 3 where I showcase and stress test the NES RetroPort that the RDP comes with. Which NES games will it play well, which will it fail miserably at? Come find out!

I had hoped to make this the final installment, but I ran out of time that youtube will allow. So therefore, I'll be bringing you guys one final video installment where I'll showcase a few more games people have asked me if they run on the RDP and give my final thoughts and verdict on the RDP.

Enjoy!

Great review! If this thing wasn't $90 I'd buy one.

Is the NES - SNES adapter functional on a SNES Jr?
