Does it works too with ems64 and insidegadget cartridges? I saw that retron sq can't save on the cartridge. Only on the box... Is it the same with the retron 5?

Its just a Pi inside you so could do your own mods pretty easily.

I think the Game Kid looks cool too, but since it's just a Raspberry Pi that can run emulators, it's hardly the same as a Retron5, so not really an alternative.

Well it does have Hdmi out and support usb controllers. But no, it's not the exact same thing I guess.

Yeah, it's still emulated.  Even using a pro-sounded sgb wouldn't work, because the rom is dumped to the retron, and runs from there.

Has this been tested with a prosound SGB?

I won't work because the only time the cart hardware is accessed is when the rom is dumped to the retron's memory.  After that everything happens from the retron's software.  The carts act as dongles, essentially.

You don't need a SGB with the Retron 5.  You can stick your flash cart right in the regular Game Boy slot on the front of the unit.  I can confirm that D'n'D carts work perfectly and that EMS 64 carts work with page 1 only and with only 1 ROM on the page (so LSDJ only, like usual).

What about sound quality?

Sound is excellent and the retron has bass/treble adjustments if you so desire.  The only caveat is that it ONLY has hdmi connectivity.  All in all I'm super glad I got it and have been playing translations of cool Super Famicom games and NES homebrew like a madman.

I would avoid the retron 5 like the plague hmm
