Hyperkin SupaBoy SFC Portable Pocket Console for Super NES/Super Famicom

This thing is amazing. I use it with my 8bitdo controller and reciever and an anker tablet stand. It is very nice being able to change from 16:9 to 4:3... depending on the game different aspects work well. I also used my game genie and it works great. I thought it would be too heavy with the game genie to play handheld, but it really isnt.My only gripe is the d-pad has some flaws in direction movement. For most games this isnt a big deal, but in games like super bomberman, it is a big deal. Super bomberman needs a controller to play on this, the d-pad isn't good enough.One product idea would be to build in a kickstand so i can play with a controller and not need my own tablet holder.The brightness control does not go very dim, it has like 4 steps, all of them about the same. But is isnt a big deal... just a little bright on a plane.The headphone jack on mine is very very tight. Almost hard to get the headphones out, and i have a good grip. Still very nit picky.SNES games fit snug, SFC games have some play much like using them in a US SNES. Again, doesn't change how it works. I did have the SFC Street fighter ii turbo freeze up on me once. Weird... but it didnt do it again.Some people who have used it with larger hands say the buttons are too close together. I think it is fine and dont notice.Start button is in a weird spot to hit when you are in a hurry to pause.System boots fast and buttons respond quickly... no lag.In all, this is absolutely one of my favorite retro gaming accessories. Ever. I need to order a retroport so i can play nes games on it.

First of all, yes! This things too legit to quit hey hey hey. Not even gonna lie, it's lit! Feels dope af and plays games like no other. Sound quality could be better but just absorb the fact that you're slaying SNES games Oscar Mike. If I were to rate this dope or nope, it's DEFINITELY a DOPE!!!! Meow

The first one i got had graphics problems, but the second one is working well and amazing. To be able to have a portable SNES system, you cant beat that. It really is amazing. Sound isnt as loud as it could be but overall very nice.

Overall I really like the Supaboy SFC. It feels like a device that could have come out around the time of the Sega Nomad and TurboExpress. It's big and bulky - yet solid feeling - and it plays everything I've thrown at it, including American games, Japanese games, and the SD2SNES. This isn't a software emulator, so the input response time feels snappy and the audio is 99% on point.The weakest part of the Supaboy is its picture quality (internal and external) - it's obviously composite video. The colors are drab and the image is fairly soft. The built-in screen is also fairly low quality, with the viewing angle being somewhat poor and the backlighting resulting in an overall gray look to what should be black. If you keep the brightness set around medium and hold the screen at just the right angle though, it's acceptable.Hyperkin should offer a more premium device, with better video output (both internal and external), as well as a better quality screen. As it is though, the Supaboy SFC is worth owning if you really want a portable SNES and don't want to spend much money. Just lower your expectations of the video quality.

Well in hand for playing games pal ntsc jap.The quality there is much less like light scratches on the screen and a few dead pixels. I do not understand that hyperkin does not check that is the second that I've ordered. Because the first was even worse dead pixels and and a crack in the screen.

This is a way cool product for an unboxing video check out my YouTube channel gamertyler subscribe for great gameplay and more if you love classic NINTINDO consoles then look no further this device is well worth the money it can play classic SNES and SFC the Japanese imported games

I've used every previous revision of the SupaBoy and always found the units to work well within their own limitation. I also own a number of other Hyperkin products and have always been happy with them.So when I heard the SupaBoy SFC was coming out and that it improved on the S model by adding an aspect ratio switch I jumped at pre-ordering a unit day one. The unit arrived and everything looked fine. I charged the unit up which took about 3 hours and then it came to start playing games. I inserted my Super GameBoy 2 as it was the closest at hand. Turning the system on I got a black screen with NTSC in the top corner but no game, I'm a big collector and keep my games clean and had just been using the Super GameBoy on my 20+ year old SNES without problems. So to make sure I cleaned the carts again and even checked it on my SNES again where it worked fine. Again putting it on to the SupaBoy the game wouldn't work. I had a look and noticed that a pin in the middle of the connector on the SupaBoy was bent out of position and pushed down into the bottom of the connector meaning that the reason for the game not loading was the bent pin.Amazon shipped me another unit which turned up very quickly. I then charged the replacement unit checked the cart slot for any bent pins (nothing wrong there) inserted my Super GameBoy 2 and turned the new unit on. All this unit gave me was a blue screen and that was all. No region identification in the top, no audio all it would do is swap the aspect ratio of the blue screen.I know the SupaBoy SFC will be just as good as the previous models, in fact it's almost identical to the S model, but two faulty units in a row shows that there has been some rush in production. Give Hyperkin a little time to slow production and restore their normal level of QC.

Despite fully charging and checking every combination of settings the device didn't display any of my cartridges and I was forced to return it. I would suggest buying from a dealer with higher standards despite the slightly higher price, it's worth it in my opinion for the assurance of quality.

Love that it can be plug to the TV (component) i recommand this product instead the rebrobit portable duo. I have tested both and if you are looking to play old super nintendo cartridges on the go i highly suggest to pick this device!

Nostalgia pura, lo que siempre quisimos de niños, y ahora, ahi ta :D jajajjaaja... excelente funcionamiento, duracion de la pila, volumen, ergonomia, la pantalla esta bieeeen :D, si me pusiera muy estricto, que igual en el proximo modelo que se inventen probablemente lo contemplen, que el viselado de la parte superior de la pantalla, sea igual o continuo a la estructura de plastico... y pensando en la conservacion de los cartuchos originales, estaria muy bien algun tipo de lector sdcard para leer roms, además de que muchos titulos son meramente dificiles de conseguir hoy en dia... y si, se que manejaron los colores del famicon, pero la neta yo soy del este lado del charco y creo que muchos estamos más familiarizados con el de botones purpuras jajajaja, el famicon solo fue en asia, tengo entendido... pero de verdad, una muy buena compra, definitivamente

The media could not be loaded.  Me ha sorprendido la buena calidad del producto, parece de Nintendo, funciona con todos los cartuchos de todas las regiones, tambien everdrive, repros y multis. Funciona con la Super Game Boy y puedes jugar con los juegos de la Game Boy. La bateria dura mucho, la imagen y el sonido son muy buenos, el tacto de los botones es muy bueno, son de buena calidad, son como los originales. Los cartuchos entran y salen bien y no se atascan, es un poco grande y pesa pero es comoda. Se puede jugar en modo portatil o conectada en una TV con los mandos originales, el unico fallo es que no tiene HDMI, es una Super Nes nueva que ocupa poco espacio. Me gusta mucho, es la fantasia de mi infancia hecha realidad, una Super Nintendo portatil o una Game Boy con cartuchos de la Super Nintendo. Es una Super Nes Switch porque se puede jugar en modo portatil, en modo tablet con los mandos originales, y en modo TV con los mandos originales y jugar como en la consola original. Después de 8 meses de uso funciona muy bien, la disfruto mucho y la recomiendo para todos los fans de la Super Nintendo.

Ich muss ja sagen ich bin immer noch jemand der wenn ich im Zug sitze und in die Arbeit fahre meinen Gameboy dabei habe. Als ich nun gesehen habe das es dieses schmucke Teil gibt, gab es für mich nur eine logische konsequente Lösung. Ich muss es mir kaufen. Endlich kann ich meine alten SNES Spiele unterwegs zocken. Spitze! Läuft super. Die Spiele werden nach kurzem ausblasen der Module sofort erkannt. Der Sound passt auch. Es können auch amerikanischen und japanische Module eingesteckt werden. PAL und Ntsc können auch umgestellt werden. Ist bei manchen Spielen schon ein unterschied. Vorallem ist es mir bei Mortal Kombat 3 aufgefallen wie schnell dieses Spiel auf NTSC läuft. Auch Klasse ist das ich meine alten Original Controller anstecken kann. Auch das funktioniert reibungslos. Können auch erst eingesteckt werden wenn das Gerät schon läuft. Da man zwei gleichzeitig anstecken kann ist somit auch eine Runde Mario Kart unterwegs mit Freunden oder Freundin möglich. Der Aku ist austauschbar und hält auch einer längeren Zeit stand. Wie lange genau kann ich noch nicht sagen. Da ich nur eine Stunde in die Arbeit fahre und wieder zurück. Das hält der Akku locker aus. So genug der lobhudelei. Jetzt das negative. Der Bildschirm macht für mich ein absolut taugliches Bild, aber bei der Abmessung von dem Handheld hatten sie ruhig einen größeren einbauen können. Es wäre noch Platz gewesen. Auch ist das Teil von der Abmessung recht groß ausgefallen. Liegt somit meines Erachtens nicht ganz so toll in der Hand. Das hätte man besser machen können. Spitze wäre auch gewesen wenn an der Rückseite etwas zum ausklappen wäre, damit man ihn schräg auf einen Tisch abstellen kann. Dann wäre es ein Traum mit Original Controller zu spielen. Aber das sind nur Feinheiten und nörgeln auf hohem Niveau. Alles in allem bin ich vollkommen begeistert und freue mich jetzt schon wenn ich wieder in die Arbeit mit dem Zug fahren darf.
