Hyperkin SupaBoy Sfc


"Yes please."


With such a long life and with so many exclusive titles between America, Europe and Japan, the Super Nintendo is one of the most loved console system of all time. Hyperkin are the guys that created the Retron, a console that is able to read almost all of your old videogame cartridges, that decided to create this superb handheld: the SupaBoy Sfc.

This console can read PAL and NTSC Super Nintendo aswell as SFC (Super Famicon) cartridges. It comes with a 4,3 inches LCD monitor with the option to switch from 4:3 to 16:9 format, a nice stereo sound and a Li-Ion rechargeable battery (10 hours of gameplay or 12 hours connected to a TV screen). The style is similar to the Super Nintendo console (grey color for the main body and the iconic green, blue, yellow and red color for the buttons) with the same features of his own joystick; the feature that i really like is the one that gives you the option to choose if you wanna connect it to a flat TV (only 16:9 format can be selected!) where you can use the SupaBoy as a console system and where you can even connect 2 Super Nintendo joysticks too, lovely indeed. To recharge it you can simply connect it via USB to a normal cellphone battery charger.


Extra:

As a retrogamer with his own games collection i was really waiting for something like this, to play while traveling or simply if you were looking to play retrogaming at your friends stay. This console is not so tiny as the new generation ones but i think that it's innovative and will give you the chance to play your old cartridges or simply to start collecting videogames from the 80's. 
The price tag varies around 130$ - 120€, sometimes you can find it for less on Amazon.
