Opinions on the Retron Console Series
JakeHC:
I love the PS1 aesthetic, probably cause it was my first console, and it stacks well in a cupboard haha.
I've narrowed my list down to 8 SNES games anyway being:
Chrono Trigger
Dragon Quest III
Final Fantasy III (6)
Earthbound Uncut
Bahamut Lagoon
Treasures of the Rudras
Treasure Hunter G
Live a Live
Any other suggestions you guys could make? And if you have these, how well do they play on the Retron?

Maybe, but when it came out I remember thinking about how awesome it looked.
That's true for just about any console. When they first come out I love the looks, but very few consoles have aged well in terms of styling.

Except for the big ass full DIN plug on the side for video that makes it look like you're hooking up a C-64 disk drive.

Out of those FF3 and CT won't be made as those are available as real carts.
There is ofcourse Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes and atleast 2 FF3 hacks (one correcting grammar and such and other more complete (I think called chrytal shards or complete hack)).

And what to ge?
- Legend of Zelda., Parallel Worlds Redone 1.1 (or if you really like challenge then the normal, non-redone version).
- Secret of Mana 2, 3-player version.
- Super Metroid Redesign. (maybe other hacks aswell).

I can get them done simply cause they were never released as a pal release of a guy in the UK and a guy in Australia. Which is cool. But I wish it had a pal release and I played the ds version or chrono and loved it.
I've seen those two but never looked into them. I'll definitely check them out :)
