I know this is the moment many have been waiting for! Should we be doing the Retro Dance? Should we fork over more loot for another 3 in 1 game system console? Should we be intimidated by the odd space-ship like design that looks like it came from Planet Retron (most likely a Star Trek episode!) ?
I try to answer as many questions on the Retron3 that I can possibly fit into an almost 11 minute video. From start to finish we work over the unit to see what type of staying potential it has. So without any further hesitation, let’s cut the fat off the RetroN3 and see if it will earn a place on my classic gaming shelf!
Viola. there you have it. That’s basically the system in a nutshell (well or in 11 minutes). Not a bad clone attempt, not flawless by any means but not bad. The one thing I have to say is that you don’t want to even touch those controllers as they look so pretty in the box…and that’s where they should stay! But honestly, why would you want to use those things anyway if you had all those ports on it anyways?
We’ll keep testing the Retron 3 and post any new findings that we come across in the forums, so until next time.
May the Old Skool be with you! Live long & Prosper!
Well, what else can I call them?! I mean boys, girls and people of all ages are constantly infected by Mario! Not only has the original Mario game gone down as a staple in pop-culture of the past 20 years but it also brings a smile to your face just by hearing the sweet beats of yesteryear.

Below is Super Mario Violin Boy, or maybe I should call him the Super Mario Maestro because to me it looks like he’s about to sell tickets to his own performance!
Watch out Tommy Tollarico and the Video Games Live Crew, I think you guys are in for some competition!
Although there are quite a few gamers out there that have no idea what this game is and will tell you that they have never heard of it, I am at least proud to say I have this game in my Super Nintendo library.
Drakkhen was brought to North America for the SNES in 1991 and it has the distinct honor of being among the first Role Playing Games to have a three-dimensional playing field, and it was done without the use of a 3D engine. Despite the storyline being confusing and somewhat frustrating to follow along with at times, constant random monster encounters (worse than any Final Fantasy game I have ever played), the shadow man killing the player every chance it gets (and you cannot do anything about it), and getting lost in the world, I would still call this game a classic.
It is a game that is hard to find in any video game store these days, although you could find it easily on Ebay along with the other different versions of it that came out in Japan, and for DOS computers. I would personally suggest any gamer who has a Super Nintendo to seek this game out, but be warned that without walkthroughs of any kind, you will spend countless hours trying to figure out what to do or where to go next. The game is that confusing. I will even go on the record as saying that I have been stuck on the same spot on my game for many years, over 10 I think it’s up to now.
Some classic dialogue right there!
