Retro Arch with Mame 2003, 2003 Plus say no items when I choose load archive. Super RetroCade is a black screen.
-
I tried those rom sets. I actually can't get any mame roms working with retro arch on my android phone or on the retro-bit super retro-cade. I'm guess they are both android and they need a specific Rom set.
-
My choices are Mame 2000, 2003 and 2003 plus. I'm new to Mame. I know you keep the archive zipped. Are there other steps that need to be done?
-
I can't seem to get a working version of this. I have downloaded multiple versions from coolrom but can't get any of them to work in retro arch or on my super retro case. Has anybody found a working version?

AtGames 2020 speculation thread
envytomdead2 replied to TF14's topic in AtGames Flashback and Portable Consoles
The one issue you might run into with this is the modern tv. My flashback 2 will not play on my flat screen, even using the RetroTink 2x! -
AtGames 2020 speculation thread

No, what I meant is the concept of a mix of 2600 and 7800 games. Except this time use Stella and The prosystem emulators or actual 7800 on a chip(probably too expensive to do this). The emulators are probably a pretty easy cost effective way to go. -

It would be nice if atGames built a version of the Flashback 1 that didn't suck. I know they didn't build the original but I thought the concept was great. It would be nice if someone implemented it well -
Anyone get food fight name to work?

Has anyone ever got Food Fight or Centipede to work on this? -
Hyperkin vs. Retrobit vs Gamerztek
envytomdead2 replied to envytomdead2's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I do expect that these things aren't going to be perfect. What I like about them is the space I save and I can have 3 systems hooked up at once. However the flimsy pins of the retron 3 irked me. Would I buy another one for $25, maybe, but I wouldn't pay full price for something that won't last much more then a year. I do have an original genesis, SMS and my wife has an original nintendo but they are too bulky to have all hooked up at once. -
Hyperkin vs. Retrobit vs Gamerztek
envytomdead2 replied to envytomdead2's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I will say my retrobit res outputs a much better composite signal than the retron 3. I think hyperkin will only be my choice if they set the only choice -
Recently the NES portion of my Retron 3 died. I got it second hand for $25, had it less than a year. While it wasn't perfect, I liked the convenience of it and the s-video looked good through the RetroTink 2x on my flat screen. I have a bit of a sour taste in my mouth with Hyperkin now. My Retron 77, while I overall like it, the joystick cracked clean off. I haven't had issues yet with my retrobit res. My question is do you guys think that these other 2 companies are any better with their build quality or are all budget consoles equally fragile.
-
Well the NES portion of my retron 3 died. Good thing I only paid $25!
-
Someone actually told me that they were able to play gba multicarts on the retron 5. Actually come to think of I believe John Hancock had a video for GBA SMS/GG multicart (I have the cart its awesome) and he said he was playing on his retron 5. If this thing could play that and the price was low I might bite.
-
I agree the retron 5 is way too much money and from what I heard too unreliable. I have two cheap system on a chip clone. The retron 3 and Retro bit res (av only). I have found both of these to be fairly reliable, compatible and a cheap way to experience these consoles. I think Hyperkin should stick with their systems on a chip and keep it at $50 max. Not sure why they keep clinging to the cartridge dumping emulation route. The Retron 77 turned out well but that was only because of the Stella team being actively involved.
-
What kind of issues did you have the Retron 3? I picked up a used one for $25 and like it quite a bit. It has played almost everything I have thrown at it. Plus I like the s-video with the RetroTink. My main compliant with it is no S-video for the NES
-
Hyperkin is hit or miss. I have the Retron 3 and the Retron 77. While I like both, they both have their short comings. I am leary of their cart dumping solutions. They don't seem to have the attention to detail to make that viable. The Retron 77 succeeds largely due to the efforts of the Stella team and the fact you can easily add the Rom if the cart fails. That being said if it was $50 or under I might bite, especially if a game gear adapter is introduced. As someone said this is basically a partial retron 5 which I have heard there were issues the gba games.
-
I had no idea Atari was suing Hyperkin. I wonder if Atari has a leg to stand on since patents have expired? Atari should worry more about getting their vaporware box launched.

Finally! I can't wait to pick one of these up. https://hyperkinlab.com/ranger-premium-wired-gamepad-for-atari-2600-retron-77-hyperkin/

AtGames 2019 speculation thread
envytomdead2 replied to Tanooki's topic in AtGames Flashback and Portable Consoles
Have there been any reviews on this years legends console. Also how easy is it to add roms? -
Would more cleaning help? I guess its not that big of deal they both work on my 7800 and could just add the Rom to the retron 77. I don't know why I want these carts to run so bad when its the same thing as just using the roms.
