I had to edit and re-upload this part thanks to nintendo and the 32 second clip of the SNES hack return to dinosaur island.

This is the second part of my Retron 5 playtesting series covering each system Retron 5 supports. Part two is covering the SNES & SFC. I will be doing other videos on Game Boy & Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Genesis/Mega Drive, Master System & Famicom.

In this video we test 47 random SNES/SFC games including Licensed, Unlicensed, Imports, Multi-carts, Homebrews, Reproductions & Pirate carts.

In each part, I will be keeping an ever updating list of working and non-working titles in the descriptions.

If you have any requests for SNES titles you would like to know the working status of, or would want to see played. Leave your request in the comments below and I'll try to get to those games first.

Here is the results from the games tested in this video.
