Retropia Reviews 

I requested to swap 4 Xbox games and 2 ps2 games and they were done without issue. The only system that seems to have issues is Xbox which is strange as it’s Microsoft emulated on a Microsoft PC. The games were playable but a bit slow.
All other systems were flawless and I’m happily reliving my younger days with Carmageddon, the 7th Guest and Terminator 2 pinball. Being able to play light gun games on a modern Tv is an added bonus.

Really happy with my purchase.

They provide a great retro gaming experience for the price.Easy instructions on use and gaming controller etc were good.I am very satisfied with my Retroboss product.

Really responsive via social. Received my console, every game on the list was on there.

The product is amazing, I didn’t post a review straight away and give it a longer test, and the result is awesome! Customer service 100% the retro boss I purchased is just a joy to have, reliving all those golden moments from past gaming. High quality wrap around the console, solid build, I would recommend the additional purchase of the mouse and keyboard as that just adds to the experience. Thank you all to retropia for such an easy order process and such a wonderful product

I’ve had the retroboss for about 3 weeks now and can honestly say it’s the best money I have ever spent, I look forward to getting home everyday to play on it, I can’t recommend one enough and retropia have been fantastic.

Ordering is easy in terms of accessories, payment etc. Delivery was Royal Mail by 1PM, signed. Packaged very well. All accessories individually packed, all contained in padded box. Also includes batteries for accessories.
Easy to follow visual instructions to set up, basically plug in and switch on. User interface great. Easy to flick between systems. Video of each game and visual of box etc is nice touch.
So far I've only played old favourites from childhood. But all worked perfectly and played well. Nice to be able to see how games developed from early consoles to later systems.
Sheer volume of games is staggering. Assume they all work. If not, there are options to contact seller and forums. Overall, delighted with this product.

Where to start.
The RetroBoss is fantastically built. The controllers are responsive. The software is a joy to scroll through and my kids easily finding thier way through it. The preview videos on every game allow you to find that N64 game your mate had but you forgot the name of, or discover gems that you never knew existed and instantly fall in love with. The catalog of games is like walking through your best childhood memories from the consoles of old. Want to relive hours in an arcade from your sofa, complete that game you never did, complete that other game for the hundredth time, you need this machine.
But it's the customer service, both before and after that sets them apart from any other iv delt with, no matter the product.
Retropia customised my game list for me, adding games I wanted, taking away game I didn't to make space. Then if there were questions, all answered, I've pestered them when I couldn't connect things, fixed instantly, couldn't find things, they found it, wanted to change things, guided me, who ever it is there answered everything, step by step, always reply within a few hours, never forgetting me no matter how many questions I asked.
My only regret is that I didn't buy sooner.
Retropia, take a bow

After a long time trying to find a retro games machine, I’ve been looking for a couple of years now, trying to find a machine that best suits my needs mainly around the sega genre. I came across Retropia, and I’m so glad that I did, a very quick look at their website fed me full of enthusiasm that I had found the machine for me, so much so infact, that I ordered from them by a debit card without even reaching out to them first. After ordering, I replied to one of their automated emails asking if it was possible to add 4 sega Saturn games on, I had a reply within about an hour stating it was possible but may lead to a day or so delay. Anyway, I ordered on Friday and today Monday it has arrived. Everything in English, everything packed like an actual console should be, and everything is perfect, I literally couldn’t be happier. Thank you for a truly awesome machine.

I had been waiting since April to get my hands on a RetroBOSS (was going to buy one at the end of April, but it had unfortunately sold out), and it was most definitely worth the wait.

The unit is fantastic with a wide selection of games that run very well (having options on how to run the games helps out), and it has definitely given me a lot of fun sessions over these past few weeks.

I should also mention that customer support was absolutely fantastic helping me with a slight problem I had with the system.

Overall, 10/10 across the board. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an awesome emulator.

Delivered super quick and the retro memories it brings back are second to none. Fantastic product! The Boss really is the Boss!

I recently purchased the RetroBOSS console and it has more than lived up to my expectations.

The purchase/delivery was quick and easy, the console is great and the number of games available is truly amazing. I've only sampled a few old favourites, so many more weekends needed to fully appreciate the full catalog available.

I had a technical question which was answered very quickly on the members forum, A+++.

Highly recommended and really happy with the console.

Excellent product. Very good price and promptly re

I upgraded to a RetroBoss having had a really good ‘Superior’ machine from a different manufacturer previously. I was happy with that but the RetroBoss absolutely blew it away. Having a wider selection of more powerful consoles (like the GameCube, XBox & WiiU) has totally blown my old Superior away. It’s much more useful having a video play for most of the titles before you choose what to try makes it so much easier to find new games to try. My Superior didn’t do that. Scraping (downloading videos for games that haven’t got one) works like a dream (it would mess up the Superior if I tried that so I only did it once and never again). Make sure you get the right Dongle though that doesn’t require drivers to be installed. All games can have the settings altered if you’re having them run slow (as I had with the XBox and some PSP titles - I just changed the screen resolution). I added some BBC & ZX81 game files and the emulator just appeared in the menu (I noticed empty folders for those in the roms menu while adding new titles so added some just to see what happened and they just worked with no effort from me other than that)

A couple of criticisms. I did spend around 2 weeks adding what I would call some essential titles. I mean, why have Daley Thompson’s Supertest & Olympic Challenege for the Spectrum on the machine but no Daley Thompson’s Decathlon? That was the most successful title in the series! No arcade version of Bubble Bobble but the Amiga and Spectrum versions are there? There was no Mr. Do! or Dingo (games I was involved with) on the Spectrum either so I got them all added. Be aware there’s a lot of crap in the rom dumps that you’ll never use too. Who needs Spectrum tape copiers on a machine like this? Or a program from 1983 to complete Tax Returns? No one. There’s a lot of foreign language adventures too that are useless to me so they all got deleted. And I hate Mahjong and card games so all those went as well. The game rom collections, especially for the 8-bit machines really could have done with a tidy up before being sent out on the machines. Saying that, it’s well easy to delete and add titles that you want yourself, but just a bit time consuming.

***Due to my above comment the makers actually asked me to send my worked on collection of ZX Spectrum games to save everyone else from having to delete those useless titles and add those essential titles I discovered were missing. So, my tidied up collection is now the default selection of Spectrum titles on new RetroBoss machines!

To sum up, this is one of the best retro gaming purchases I’ve ever made and can whole heartedly recommend it to anyone interested. You could leave it as it is but I tidied mine up (for 2 weeks I was spending more time sorting out the games than playing anything) but it was worth it in the end. I made a list when I noticed stuff missing and they’re all on there now and working but i think they could do with someone with some expert knowledge of the 8 bit classic titles to add some obvious omissions and get rid of some of the stuff NO one’s going to be interested in.

If I hadn’t had to do that I’d have given the machine 10 out of 10. As it is, it gets a 9.5! Getting a RetroBoss has blown me away. It’s excellent

P.S. Delivery was really quick too. It came in less than a week!

12 months in and well...its bloody excellent. After purchase contact is great. Normally they will get back to you within a day or so with a fix for whatever ails you. Cheers guys.

Ordered RetroBOSS. Delivered promptly, well packaged. Everything up and running following the simple instructions, including the Wii remote. In short, exactly what was promised and very pleased, highly recommended!

Awesome console and great support from the team!

Runs games well and is all pre setup, recommended.

I had some problems with my machine but contacted Retropia had a on line contact returned item . Machine was returned now it's working.I'm now a happy man reliving my youth from a long time ago.. It also had some modern games dreamcast, game cube, Wii, ps2. Thanks for the amazing machine, well worth the price. The service was a brilliant experience. Very professional and to be trusted...

Had a really pleasant experience with retropia! Very professional and ultra fast delivery. The retroboss is great. The mini pc can run the later gen consoles no problem. If your thinking of a retro machine the retroboss is the one. Thanks again retropia.

Purchased the Retroboss from Retropia after my previous Retrodroid console died (which wasn't purchased from Retropia!). The console itself is amazing, love the immense catalogue of game and the ease at which you can navigate through them. And the way it displays random games as you move between emulators is awesome! The instructions were very comprehensive and the Retropia online forum is great for assistance and FAQs. Very happy with the Retroboss and the customer service!

Had my Retroboss + accessories for two months and loving it - really impressive machine. User interface is slick, with great previews of the games, random suggestions and some games rated out of five to nudge you towards titles worth checking out (a good feature when there's 36,000 of them!). In-game saves are easy, as is grouping the games into favourites for easy access. Control is seamless! I think the Wii remote is worth it, as the gun games are good fun. Playing Spectrum games with the keyboard really is a nostalgia kick! So much on there you could never get bored. Delivery was very fast also. Thanks guys
