Don't understand Castlevania 3 not running. I have this console, and it works with Castlevania 3.

[@Akito01]

There are videos of this running Castlevania III, which makes me wonder if the NOAC was switched over to the older versions in order to meet manufacturing demand. This kind of bait-and-switch with NOACs have sadly happened with previous Hyperkin products, where earlier preview and production builds have a better NOAC than those that get made after. I have to imagine there is virtually no way of knowing ahead of time if the Retron HD you get has the good or the bad NOAC, and I doubt that is a gamble worth making.

Unfortunately my copy of Castlevania III doesn't work anymore it seems. It should at least get into the game and be somewhat playable with wrong textures/text. I'll need to open it up and investigate...

Yes available!

[@tetsujin_144]

If anything, the presence of composite out on this thing should be a red flag - I mean, if this thing were truly HD-native, they probably wouldn't have gone to the trouble and expense of providing an analog signal path.

Great video...would that controller work on the original nes and I'f so would i be able to buy it out of the store?

[@NeonNightmares]

Thanks for the video! could you maybe change the colors on your tv itself? or maybe you just got a faulty console because i saw castlevania 3 running on this system and some had actually a decent sound.

[@GameTechDome]

Color adjustment is fine on the TV since my NES Classic looks perfect. See my other reply in regards to Castlevania III.

YESAC

[@Zestypanda]

I DEMAND you make more videos. For I require them for my mental sustenance.

[@daveyogurt2]
