Hyperkin offers the source code of the emulators as they're used in the RetroN 5 on its website. By default, the RetroN 5 outputs over HDMI at 720p, scaling everything to fit your HDTV with a full graphical menu system at your games' backs instead of just facsimiles of the original game consoles' hardware.

The Hyperkin RetroN 5 is the best retro game console we've seen yet. While it's basically just a computer filled with emulators at its core, the ability to play your own physical classic games from nine different systems easily on your HDTV is fantastic.

We're even more impressed by the Hyperkin RetroN 5, which eclipses the Super Retro Trio and its own predecessor, the RetroN 3, in every way. This $159.99 box can play games from nine different systems, outputs all games over HDMI at gorgeous, crisp 720p, and packs loads of tricks previously only seen in software emulators.

The RetroN 5 is a computer with its own user interface and an HDMI video output, which makes it much more complex and capable of many more tricks than the other systems. The RetroN 5 actually runs multiple emulators, or rather parts of multiple emulators.

The RetroN 3 and Super Retro Trio are basically Frankenstein's monster amalgams of NES, SNES, and Genesis systems in one box; you flick a switch, turn the power on, and an analog video signal of the game you're playing on the system you're playing goes out to your television.
