Yesterday, I posted my review of the 4K Gamer Pro. My goal was simple: Cover all the topics that most reviewers skip over. I was able to prove that this is a lag-free device that doesn’t drop frames or ruin the colors. I also showed it working with the MiSTer and RetroTINK 5x, since at […]
The 4K Gamer Pro is a device that sharp-scales 1080p to 4K, using their custom scaling technique (not nearest-neighbor). It’s basically the opposite of an mCable, as it’s sharp-scaling instead of soft-scaling…but unlike the mCable, this outputs 4K60. Check out the video for a full analysis and some screenshots below! 4K Gamer Pro Kickstarter: https://bit.ly/3P3lkCr […]
Recently CRT repair expert Steve from Retro Tech has been consulting for a museum, helping them preserve their collection of pro & consumer CRTs. You may not have considered this before but CRTs have played a huge part in visual art in the 20th century. Almost since they were created, artists have been incorporating them […]
Now that FPGAzumSpass’s PlayStation 1 FPGA core is out to the public, I wanted to highlight one of the coolest features available for flat-panel gamers: True widescreen 16:9 support. There’s been a bit of confusion about this, as certain menu screens (including the PSX BIOS screen) and logos stretch when this mode is enabled, leading […]
1992’s Watara Supervision was a cut-price competitor to the Nintendo Game Boy, offering a library of games that would grow to a grand total of 65 commercial releases during its short lifespan. Manufactured under license by various companies, you may have known it as the QuickShot Supervision, Travell Mate, Hartung SV-100, or Electrolab depending where […]

Fixel has just opened pre-orders on their new optical drive emulator for the 3DO. As discussed previously, you can choose from the external “X-Port” version for $350, or if you have an FZ-1 with a broken drive you can save some money with the $250 internal version. Both are “plug and play” devices with no […]
Krikzz just released a new NES core, specifically developed to run on the EverDrive-64 X series of rom carts. NES emulation on N64 is not new as Neon64, an open-source NES software emulator for the N64, has been available for years now. While early revisions of Neon64 suffered from game compatibility, audio, and lag issues, […]
Richard from Heber – the MiSTer MultiSystem project’s hardware manufacturing partner – has revealed more details on his handheld prototypes (previously covered on RetroRGB) in an interview with RMC. The MiSTer MultiSystem is a project launched in August 2021 by Heber and RMC which combines many of MiSTer’s most popular hardware add-ons into an all-in-one […]
Not long after releasing the PlayStation 2, Sony developed a Linux kit that would effectively turn the console into a personal computer. As wild as that may sound, the kit included everything (minus the monitor) you needed to accomplish this. For the modest sum of $299, you got a mouse, keyboard, 40GB IDE hard drive, […]
