If this retro-adapter thing works (high compatibility, sound, video, colors, etc etc) ....
Then it's an easy, "inexpensive" way to play NES games in s-video or RGB via the SNES' video capabilities right??!!

That's what I thought, but I guess it turns out this isn't the case? I think because I haven't personally seen them or had any hands-on time with them, I'm at a disadvantage to speak. In looking at some of the images and promotional material for the separately available adapters already available in Japan, they all seem to include their own A/V cables, which implies that while they use the console they are plugged into for power and controller input, they don't use the console's A/V output. Honestly, though, I am a bit confused.
cool i thought starocean would work cuss it worked in both my retroduo 2.0 and retron3

No, I don't. He says it's not the same as the PokeFamiDX and you just said it is. Are you saying it's the same internals in a new shell?
Sadly, no. Again, NOACs are incapable of S-video or RGB. Even using the SNES as a passthrough, the most you'll get is composite. An s-video ready NES would take quite some doing, which no clone maker will ever do as it'd be complicated and expensive. Those who make clones like easy and cheap.

What about the AV Out? Do you have to plug the cable into the adapter rather than the system like the PokeFamiDX when you use the NES/Genesis adapters?
Yes. I have my doubts as well that the RetroDuo Portable and the PokeFami DX aren't related. If they aren't, that actually worries me seeing as how the PokeFami DX looks to be pretty excellent.

I saw the video of the RDP posted above, and I just have to say...this thing has got to be the stupidest and most awkward and idiotic portable I've ever seen. If even one single person ends up buying this piece of circuit garbage, then it truly means the retro gaming community has reached the lowest of lows. It's a piece of crap....and I just don't understand why any sane intelligent person would purchase such sewage.
I couldn't stop laughing the entire time I viewed the video clip. An adapter to play NES games that makes the damned thing bigger than the original NES system itself. And this is supposed to somehow be a portable???? What the f*ck were these guys thinking when they developed this? Just a bunch of idiocy...and yet...I know sooo many morons out there are going to flock to this thing like they do to every other damned thing related to nintendo. Seriously, can we stop with all this portable crap.
I'm going to say it once and only once. NES games were meant to be played on an NES system. SNES games on a SNES system. That's it. It's pretty simple. So everyone stop jumping on all these portable's nuts....they're all a bunch of crap....end of story.
thank you.
so are u saying screw this and just use your psp or any other device with roms and emus? cuss the point is u can take your original game not a copy with u to play your favorite game!!!! and the other reason is not everyone can play there fave game at home, like me i have to go to grandmas sometimes after work and most of my console systems u guessed it is @ home. sure it's bulky but it certainly open the gate to other adapters being made not just for the rdp but like genesis on the snes wow and nes on snes but also a famicom adapter(japanese nes not snes) and if u don't like this product buzz off cuss i would like to finish final fantasy 2 on the go!!
MyTurnToPlay, please leave this thread. If you don't have any interest in clones, then don't buy them. The rest of us eagerly await the release and more details about the RDP. I enjoy them and I think the same goes for everyone else reading this. If you don't like them that's fine. Just leave.
Thank you.

I kind of have to agree to a point.
From the video the controllers look like cheap crap, though they usually are. The system itself seems like a decent portable SNES. I can see MyTurnToPlay's point when he pulled out the NES adapter. You can't really call that a portable anymore at that point. I can't agree on any other level though.
I'm eager to see independent reviews on this thing. The whole NES adapter thing really looks idiotic, but I'm more interested in the SNES portion anyway. Supaboy is off my radar what with all the sound issues and the FC 16 Go stinks as a portable. Here's hoping this one gets the portable part right.
