I really didn't want to downgrade because I like the new features but they are not worth losing compatibility with major Sega Genesis games. I wrote to them months ago and they assured me that it was being worked on but I am seriously starting to doubt this. Guess I'll have to go ahead and downgrade back to 2.1.

I've bought the new one with 3.1GB internal RAM and all my 45 MD/Genesis games are working fine with fw 2.2. Only Magical Hat is not working (after the rom is dumped successfully to the RAM) but no problem wih 2.3 beta.<br /><br />My Retron5 does have a blue Famicom slot (the old revision was black), a much more stable plastic case (there the slots are) and the hole where you find the reset switch is not visible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
