Review for new RetroTINK 5X-Pro notes Atari 7800 S-Video performance

[dlmartins]

I just dug out my 2X Pro and now I can see the issue. Comparing the 5X and 2X Pro does seem like a big difference, at least on my setup. I typically have the 7800 hooked up to a CRT and haven't played much 2600 on it until recently (we did have a 2600 growing up). This is fascinating.

 

For Starmaster, I get a rolling image on the 2X Pro. No issues at all on the 5X.

 

I also tried Moon Patrol with the 2X Pro and I can see the sync drops, which doesn't occur on the 5X Pro.

From the test, it def still did the same drop with Asteroids, and I think I could see it in Buck? Buck isn't as obvious though.

Seemed okay to me, but I'm not sure if this is like Moon Patrol and only certain parts are problematic. I'm not very familiar with this game, so the gameplay is shameful and I had to mess with the difficulty switches, etc. I hope this helps.

thanks!

 

Yeah - that's fine.
