Great for endless hours of NES AND SNES fun. Play many classic NES titles, Super Mario triliogy, Legend Zelda, Mega Man, Tutrles, etc. As well as SNES classic Super Mario World, A Link to the Past and Starfox. It uses the SNES style controllers, which does not allow use for the classic NES controller, or NES zapper. It is unable to play certain games: Battletoads for NES. The game hangs after level 2, though a cheat allows you to jump to level 3. Digger T. Rock: Legend of the Lost City plays title screen,but MANY in-game crashes and graphic glitches that, render it unplayable. For Duck Hunt NES Zapper cannot be plugged in. Does work with NES to SNES adapting cables that have accessory support. However, that NES Zapper only works with a CRT TV set. Maniac Mansion just doesn't play. Paperboy controller is not recognized. That's really it for NES which isn't too bad honestly. A much larger list for SNES. Most notably is Super Mario RPG, due to the NES PAL. Also ALL NES accessories DO NOT and CANNOT work unless NES to SNES adapter. That includes R.O.B. NES Zapper, Power Pad, NES Advantagem NES Max and Power Glove. Also the NES Game Genie does not. Also does not play Famicom games. Still, probably the best clone system of them all. Many clone systems struggle with Castlevania III. Works just fine on this. Star Fox is another many clones struggle with. Again not this one. Super Game Boy adapter works great. SNES game genie works great. Super Famicom games almost usually work. Retro-Bit RetroGEN Adapter Genesis to SNES Cartridge Adapter works great allowing Genesis games to play on i. System is not perfect. But much cheaper than getting a NES & SNES. Plays most games great. Review: I’m very glad I bought it - This was super easy to set up. And it works great. It could not have been better. The only game I have is the original Zelda that I have been wanting to play again for years and I finally got to start on it. Thank you so much and thank you for making it affordable for people like me with low income. ## Features - 2 GAME SLOT: Includes 2 built-in cartridge slots that are compatible with Original NES and Original SNES games - READY OUT OF THE BOX: Includes 2 wired controllers.

The only game I have is the original Zelda that I have been wanting to play again for years and I finally got to start on it. Thank you so much and thank you for making it affordable for people like me with low income. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome game system *by A***A on February 22, 2026* I had a retron Nintendo with the NES, SNES and SEGA, that I accidently spilled coffee on and broke. I did keep the controllers and all my games for a new one. I found this one. I don't play sega, so I didn't need the all three when purchasing a new system. This one is great value. I did find a game console that was identical to the one I had, but a beautiful color, teal. I opted for this one, despite being black, which is fine. I don't care for the av wires, but I am ok. I have to remember to go to the Av on the tv when I want to play. My son helped me get it hooked up and remind me of the av on the tv. I was grateful for him making sure it was hooked up right. I also didn't need the controllers from my previous game system. This system has controllers that I can utilize for NES and the SNES games, which is a totally awesome game changer for me. Also, it's a bit smaller than my previous game system, which is great! Living in a camper, I'm so glad it doesn't take up as much space. It's just about the same length as an NES cartridge. ## Frequently Bought Together - Retro-Bit Retro Duo 2 in 1 Console System - for Original NES/SNES, & Super Nintendo Games - Black/Red - Tengchi RCA to HDMI Converter, Composite to HDMI Adapter Support 1080P PAL/NTSC Compatible with PS one, PS2, PS3, STB, Xbox, VHS, VCR, Blue-Ray DVD Players - ABLEWE RCA to HDMI,AV to HDMI Converter, 1080P Mini RCA Composite CVBS Video Audio Converter Adapter Supporting PAL/NTSC for TV/PC/ PS3/ STB/Xbox VHS/VCR/Blue-Ray DVD Players --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/626524-retro-bit-retro-duo-2-in-1-console-system-original](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/626524-retro-bit-retro-duo-2-in-1-console-system-original) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
