HDMI Retro Console: Play NES, SNES, and Sega on Your Modern TV
Compartir
If you grew up in the 90s playing Super Mario, Contra, or Street Fighter on a CRT TV, you know that those games don't age. The retro HDMI console solves exactly that: connect it to the HDMI port of any modern TV and get instant access to thousands of classics without any setup.
What is a retro HDMI console and how does it work?
It's a compact stick that plugs directly into your TV's HDMI port, just like a Chromecast. It's powered by USB from the TV itself or from any charger. It doesn't require installation, network password, or update downloads. You turn on the TV, plug in the stick, and in 30 seconds you're in the game menu. The games come preloaded from the factory on the device's internal memory.
