Retropia Recenzje 270

I have to say I have always wanted one of these little consoles - I’m not disappointed! 😊 Really good packaging very good customer service and all in all, I would recommend to anyone who shares an interest in the 80/90’s computers This is a must 👊

I actually haven’t played it as I bought as a gift for a friend in the U.S . Hopefully he should get it soon . I really wanted to get the system for the Daphne games when I get one . The after sales service and the answers to all my queries was above and beyond and I would highly recommend them if you are considering getting into retro stuff

I’ve always wanted to relive my youth and play the games that I grew up with. Consequently I’ve been stung with “retro consoles” in the past. The memory stick that plugs straight into your tv, the Raspberry Pi based systems that promise thousands of classic titles, all of which have been unreliable, clunky and unplayable with a terrible UI, meaning specific games were impossible to find.
I was a little dubious when I saw the Retro Boss system advertised on social media, but based on the reviews I decided to take a punt…and I’m so glad that I did.
Ok, it’s a little pricier than the other systems out there, but it’s not a memory stick, or a Raspberry Pi, it’s a “proper” PC with great X Box style controllers and it just works. It works so much better than any of the other systems I’ve tried in the past. I haven’t been able to think of a a game that isn’t on it yet…on any format. The choice of retro consoles is staggering (some I’ve never heard of!) The UI is a breeze to use and specific titles can be found without any effort. The games all work well, some require a little reconfiguring of the controller, which is understandable and more importantly, there are detailed instructions providing direction on how to do it! The after sales service is second to none. I had an issue with the sound after setting the console up for the first time and Retropia were brilliant. Quick responses, suggestions on how to resolve and detailed instruction. It turned out to be my tv that was the problem so I was up and running in no time.
I can’t recommend this system, or the seller enough. There’s no doubt in my mind that this is the best option out there if you’re a fan of retro games. All credit to Retro Boss.

This is the ultimate retro gaming console, with just about every game and system you can think of and then some!
Customer service is simply amazing and I can now play Marble Madness with a trackball.
Also purchased the Sinden Light Gun to play a range of light gun games, great fun!
The only change I made was replacing the supplied controller for a wireless Snes controller, but this was a personal choice!
This system is worth every penny, treat yourself!

Lots of games all working great, fast response when contacting customer service. Added more games on request. Fast delivery. Machine and pads look and feel great quality. Would definitely purchase from this company in the future.

Upgraded my old raspberry pi I purchased off them years ago and upgraded to a RetroBoss. Always been great with and help and support. Was easy to upgrade and was delivered within 4 days. Highly recommend.

Retro gaming handheld purchase

This is my third purchase from Retropia and - again - I'm really happy with both the product and the price. The product is very 'plug and play' with no set-up required for people like me who burn toast. Plus, if you have a problem, they're always really easy to contact via social media and happy to help out (or in my case just explain the obvious!).

What can I say the retro boss is amazing and I am really impressed I can’t believe I have finally got a home retro console that has the power to run arcade classics like ridge racer,Daytona USA and Time crisis and the emulation is so crisp it’s certainly a massive upgrade to the retrodroid from retropia which I also own.This is my fourth review in all.Thank you for you patience and help a customer service that is very unusual today in terms of how fantastic and helpful you guys have been with all my 4 purchases from retropia👍

Great company and service

My 'Retroboss' arrived quickly, and whereas it is more expensive that other similar products, I think it's money well spent; the unit is robust (metal, not plastic), with all cables and works wonderfully...when loaded, you moved left and right to move between the systems available and then up down to scroll thru' the 38,000 games. Very, very happy...had all I wanted (essentially old football games from consoles past as far back as the Amstrad CPC) and many more games I'd forgotten the name of, or forgotten all together.

I picked up the RetroBoss as a birthday present (to myself) and after a couple of months with it I can honestly say I’m really impressed with it.
The delivery was very quick, especially considering I requested a few games to be added (which was done for me, no questions asked). It’s ready to go straight away on start up as it states with the plug and play interface being fairly intuitive and easy to use. The list of games and consoles is quite astonishing, there is a lifetimes worth of content here!
One thing to remember is that this is a pc running emulated games and so the experience you get, particularly with some of the newer consoles on the list, isn’t 100% true to the original machines. However, 90% of the games run perfectly smoothly. I played through the HD Wind Waker remaster on the Wii U to put it to the test and I did get some slow down during boss fights and weather effects, but nothing game breaking. All the Mario Kart games run great, Silent Hill and it’s sequels on the PS2 play very nicely. As expected, anything from the 16 or 8 bit era is pretty much spot on. I’ve loved playing through some 32X and Mega CD titles as I could never afford those add ons back in the 90s! Star Wars Arcade on the 32X is a bit of a hidden gem.
There are a few controller issues I noticed on the Gamecube with some buttons being weirdly mapped, and rogue squadron 2 is very unstable (which is an emulation problem not a retroboss problem). However, the RetroBoss forums are very responsive and I’ve found they are quite happy to offer support with particular games.
The Sinden gun works great with the compatible shooters on there, playing through Time Crisis and House of the Dead is a blast. Its worth forking out for the separate add on for that old school tactile experience if you care about that sort of thing.
It’s hard to imagine a time when I won’t be playing through something on here, there really is so much entertainment value. Worth every penny.

Bought a retroboss games console from retropia after considering the options. So glad I did! Fantastic console that, as it's based on batocera, works fantastic with a sinden lightgun! 38000 games and reasons to buy this console. The guys at retropia are very reactive to your questions as well, making it the complete package. Very highly recommended!

Got the retro boss yesterday playing it today for my birthday amazing machine loving it so many games to play im really happy there are a lot from my childhood and as a big retro gamer i hope they add more games in the future to as i want to support them as they have done an amazing job 😊

The Retro Boss has to be the greatest product I have ever purchased. Nothing else I have ever purchased has exceeded my expectations as much as this little beauty. The layout and UI is amazing, incredibly well laid out and everything works like a dream. The mini computer is very well built and the wrap looks incredible. I was also expecting the controller supplied to be light and fragile but is incredibly robust. If you want a way to play retro games without the hassle and cost of collecting this is for you. Just go for it. I can't say enough good things about this product.

I've owned a few of these kind of things from Chinese manufacturers. The latest one I had seemed promising but after just a month it kept crashing and now it doesn't even boot. I thought it would be worth paying a bit more for one that actually works and I knew as soon as I went into the menu's that this was it.

There's so many games on it too. So many PS1 games. I did have a problem getting the analogue stick to work on them at first but I realised you can change the controller type in settings. Some of even the simplest settings were disabled on the other device I had.

Also, I'm very impressed with how good PSP titles render and play. Loving playing Wipeout Pure and Pulse on the big screen! My partner and I had a retro arcade night the other night and the hours absolutely flew by. I think it'll be the only gaming system I need as I'm not that interested in newer games.

Would recommend! It's better and more stable than even a Pandora's Box Arcade (which has about 800 copies of the same game on it!)

Great experience all round and the retro boss is flawless!! Gun games with sinden work like a dream - Wii games with remote run great - really really recommended

What a Machine!!. Great service also, my only 2 x gripes would be the Sinden gun which I'm having problems to get the gun to calibrate, can't fault Retroboss as they sent me a link on how to troubleshot this but doesn't seem to be working properly, and Crazy Balloon would love a device to be made so you have the Proper direction buttons for having the authentic gameplay apart from that great machine 10/10. Would recommend this to all who like retro games

OK so I have left a review before. I have owned the odroid they first released and got the upgrade for that and when the retro boss came out it was a no brainer.
I have just retired so having a little more time to be a man child I got the 1upgrade. I felt like I'd gone back in time 40 years.
In relation to the newer systems it handles them perfectly and I've only had issues with the game cube when a couple of games slow in frame rate. Likely that's the settings not the machine. I wanted a couple of other games putting on and it was done no problem. Their customer service is first class and if you have a query they will reply quickly. If you're looking for a really good quality retro machine then I would definitely recommend. Just try not to think of the amount of money you used to sling in the arcade machines when you have to keep continuing.

My console arrived incredibly safely packaged which I was really appreciated and it's just a work of art and going to have so much fun be able to play games that I haven't played in years and games I never had the chance to play apsolute work of art

Super fast shipping and excellent packaging. The lens works exactly as described.
