Hey Sam unfortunately the thing turned into a piece of garbage the second day so I have $300 worth of garbage so when I plug it in it goes to a screen that says no games found.

I really like these. If more retro collections would be released, there wouldn't be a market for these. I'd really like to see more 3DO emulation. There were some fantastic games released back then on that system.
Thank you for sharing stuff like this Mr Hancock!!! I got the Super Console X2 because you & Mr Riggs showed it in one of your vids & I’ll probably get this also because it looks like the PERFECT upgrade!!!
3DO is soo underrated! Didn't know emulation worked for it. I remember my parents getting us one at a garage sale for couple bucks (during ps2 era) and none of my friends ever heard of it.
I just got my X5 Pro finally set up tonight and I'll tell ya, it's pretty complex. Different settings for each emulator can get a bit confusing but a lot of it was my fault. I had the joypad set wrong from the get go and had totally forgotten about the supplied remote which made things a lot easier. So after playing with it for a few hours I've decided to keep it. The selection of games is simply amazing and the quality of the emulation is pretty good.
Hey ! Quick question and maybe you can help me out …. I have the X5 pro also , and on the ps2 games I think my controller settings are messed up and it won’t let me exit a game out to go back to the dashboard , and why when your playing a ps2 game the screen has a background of the controllers on it lol it’s not the full screen of the game ? HELP PLEASE lol
Well, after a few days I wound up returning the system to Amazon. A couple scary times when the box didn't see the hard drive so it showed no games and after awhile the ps2 emulator wouldn't load games. In the end, I like the idea but there's too many individual emulators that you need to configure and tweak. Too bad there isn't one app that emulates EVERYTHING, that would make it more consistent
Thanks let me know I was thinking want to buy one and now after I heard bad things about this console I change my mind. I'm not surprised some emulator not work or even sometime won't recognize the hdd.
I got mine a few days ago so far I am pleased some things will obviously not run perfectly but once you get The knack you figure out how to set up credits in Mame as long as you have any kind of knowledge of retroarch you should be okay. Hint for those that don't have any idea what I'm talking about when you launch any game that retroarch fires up press both the thumbsticks down and will bring you to menu
Ive just ordered one.. too tempting.. couldnt resist. Ive got a bartop arcade with everything on till around 93/94 and this will fill in the gap thats saturn/gamecube/wii/3do/jaguar/ps2 shaped.. Really looking forward to getting into Sega Saturn titles to be honest! 😊
Its on my radar to pick one of these up. I have moded my NES mini and have a couple of the hand held retro consoles but one to hook up to the TV like this looks like a lot of fun.
Still looking for an all in one emulator box that has an expansive 3DO library that runs well. I got excited when you showed 3DO on here only to hear there is limited games on it. I will continue to wait I guess.
I have an Anbernic RG35XX-H that I've set up myself and it has 80 systems, all functional. I could get a few more like Daphne and Naomi 2 but I couldn't figure out how to get them running. Tops out at N64 and Dreamcast performance so no PS2 or Gamecube. Not only can you put it in your pocket and play your games at work or the park, but you can hook it up to a TV via HDMI. Then you could pair a couple of Bluetooth controllers to it and play some multiplayer games like WWF No Mercy and Mario Kart 64.
The RG35XX-H is a super nice little pocket gadget. 8 and 16 bit games look great on it's screen, and it does PS1 really well. Not bad for a $50 unit, and it has micro HDMI!
This setup covers just about everything I had in my collection before it was taken from me. Sure, I won't be able to sell it all and buy a house now but at least this will give me back a lot of the memories I built with friends during a happy part of life playing these games. I got a Super Console X3 Cube a while back and it really covers everything up to PSP but only 60 Dreamcast and like 120 PlayStation 1 games, but it does have a hacked games category and an open boar category and Tons of other non 3D titles. So really I got 1 Super Console that covers the younger part of my gaming life and soon I'll have this Super Console to cover some of the best overall years of my life. Then all I need is eventually to buy a nice Mini PC and the 12TB gaming drive to cover all the most recent things I haven't got to enjoy, I've barely been gaming since PS3 and 360 came out despite really having an interest in it, and I sure as Hell don't have the uncontrollable urge to waste money buying everything I missed. 😄👍
I have a Super Console X King. I like it. Biggest issue is it is not easy to upgrade the storage. Mine is 256gb and I wanted to upgrade it to 512gb and I couldn't make it happen.
I can see these eventually replacing and or becoming retro gaming. These are getting better each generation though they have a little ways to go to be perfect. I will keep my hardware and software collection but these are sometimes more convenient than dragging boxes of stuff from a storage room. Lol yeah...im lazy...lol
Someday I'll get something like this, but only for the games and consoles themselves that have become stupid expensive. And I was always keep my physical media, I prefer it over digital.
@@Xhalonick Finding a controller can be an issue. I'd much rather play NES with an NES controller, etc and finding a USB one that really works well could be much easier said than done.
The Immortal/Professor John Hancock there are so many better and cheaper options available when it comes to emulation I’ve seen all from 1980-Now I have all NTSC consoles physically from all those years with my emulation setup I can emulate all generations of consoles from generations 1 to Now with the exception of PS5 and Xbox X/S what a life of gaming
Great video, and seems like a decent little product. It would nice to know if you were able to get those controls working, especially on the GameCube. A lot of games for that are getting pricey enough that it would be worth having something like this. Also how hard is it to add a game to it?
Just checked the link in description and the 4TB version is on sale for $260 +tax, there's another version with the same console but less games for onle $131+tax. The regular price I find cheaper on other sources but the Ali Express sale listing is cheaper than Amazon right now, without the Ali Express "Summer Sale" then Amazon is cheaper. I just ordered one (4TB) with a $20 off coupon and after expensive US tax it was $331 for the whole package with nice controller, air mouse and everything. 😄👍
Hows it working for you? Im about to pull the trigger but watching all these reviews 1st. Do the N64 or PS2 emulators run well? Can you just lower resolution a bit when it isn't at 60FPS?
@@bgkclassic N64 and PS2 work great from what I've played, the hard drive probably won't actually be the same brand as the picture in the add but it will be 4TB and work.

Great video. In your opinion, what’s the best device for PC Engine/Genesis/SNES/Sega Saturn/Dreamcast emulation? I already have a PS3 and PS2, as well as a cart for the 2DS.
I’m going to call the police on you:o 😂😂dude’ PlayStation 2 and GameCube $300.00 Wii and Dreamcast also.. This one was just released also. Thanks for telling me about the controller settings.. Android boxes are like that. Ordered from Aliexpress Northern California 😊😊
can the controller issue be solved? this seems pretty amazing! best looking emulation I’ve seen of Saturn/PS2 stuff. Is there anything out there better? I have an ok emulation setup for retro games but I haven’t been too successful with PS1/PS2/GC era (and beyond) emulation. I’d love to have all of that in one box, even if it’s a bit more expensive than this.
I like emulation boxes. I got an ssd with batocera 39 on. Put it on my 10 year old pc and can play my ps2 games. These are nice to have to play games you used to own but can’t play anymore.
@@johnhancockretroIs your controller in Android mode? If so, you can access the PS2, GameCube, and Wii games. I have to learn the hot keys to exit games for the GameCube and Wii, but I have no issues with the PS2 while the controller in Android mode.
@@johnhancockretro Before turning the game console on, press the home and A buttons at the same time until the controller blinks purple lights. Immediately afterwards, turn the game system on and the controller will be in Android mode. You can play the PS2 games that way. Let me know if it works for you.
This console is pretty good. Mixed performance on the higher end consoles (PS2, GameCube, Wii), but most of the games I wanted to play actually worked pretty good. For the PS2 games, I have them at 2.25 screen resolution and the God of War games, Devil May Cry, NBA & NFL 2K5 work just fine. At 2x resolution, games like Mario Kart Wii, Super Mario Bros Wii, WWE Day of Reckoning 2, and TMNT work good off the Dolphin emulator. Some games run better than others, so you gotta determine if you want to play games that all work under the same settings, or do you want to tweak the settings per game. My preference is the same settings for all games. Also… keep that android remote control because it will come in handy for exiting out of the GameCube and Wii games, in addition to adjusting the volume output on your TV. If y’all need any assistance with how to exit out of the games or getting your game controller to work properly, drop a comment and I’ll help as best as I can!
@@johnhancockretro By the packin controller, I assume you’re talking about the one that came with the console. Putting the controller in android mode solves all those problems. While the console is powered off, hold the home button and A at the same time until the controller lights turn up.

Also, keep that remote to the android box in handy as you’ll need to use it to access the menu of the Wii and GameCube, and exit the games or adjust setting as needed. I hope that answers your question.
@@HerbJr316 do your gamecube games run? I just opened my system out of the box and they don't run. Not sure what to do and I'm unable to really find a solution :( I'd rather not hook this thing up to my internet if I can help it.. any advice or help is super appreciated!!!
Did you find issues with GameCube games? None of mine work, and using standalone emulator doesn’t help either. Also couldn’t sign into Google Play-store to update anything, just kicked me back to the home screen.
I have a stupid question that I honestly can't find an answer for. Do you NEED to run this through a Desktop/Laptop CPU or can you plug this directly into a Smart TV?
Yeah I saw a different video actually run the Contra collection provided, I don't know if it will run everything Switch can but it should handle quite a bit of it
Hi John, thanks for this video review! You briefly touched on the Atari Jaguar. I would be interested in this unit for the Atari games. Is there a good selection of Jaguar games and are there any issues with playing these games with the included controller? Is the controller XBox compatible?
Good luck with trying to get the controller to work with all of the systems without loading cores configuring the controls cause that’s what I had to do it gets very frustrating and annoying each time you want to play a different system unless I got a lemon box.
That’s the same issue I’m trying to have , I mainly wanna play ps2 games and I can’t even dashboard to exit a game , I looked in the manual and used the hot keys it says to exit a game and nothing
@@bgkclassic I wound up returning it after it refused to load the ps2 games from the hard drive. Instead I got an Anbernic RG556 handheld which I love, Plays PS2, GameCube,PSP, Saturn and Dreamcast games really well, it has an HDMI out so I can hook it up to the big screen in my Gameroom😃
Well if anybody out there gets this and can help me I would appreciate I had it up and running yesterday tried to reconfigure the controllers. Now when I reboot the system that just says no games found direct me to Pegasus website which doesn't really do anything. I can't even get into the game after that screen the side panel opens up with settings help and quit but do not respond to the controller at all so I have a $300 piece of crap unless I can get help
You need to unhook the SATA cables and hook them back up again. When you plug up the console, you should hear the hard drive make a noise which indicates it’s operational. The games should be good to load up once you start the Pegasus app.
@HerbJr316 thanks, tried that it didn't do anything it just returns to the screen that says no games found. I did accidentally installed Google by mistake when I was trying to properly configure the controller now the super consult X won't recognize the hard drive and let me have any games
@@loveistruth5713 Respectfully, it sounds like you might’ve messed it up. The thing with those Android Box gaming consoles is you gotta stay within the confines of its setup. I learned the hard way with the original Super Console X. You may need to hook that hard drive up to a computer and check to see if the rom and emulator folders are still on there. If so… copy all the files, get the same model hard drive, put those duplicates on that hard drive, and you should be set.
Does anyone who has one of these know what’s going on with the Wii controls I mapped everything I was playing Mario kart and no matter how much I push the button the kart moves slow
It really depends on who sets it up they have a bunch of different people setting these up and there's really great ones at it and there's really horrible ones at it
What size HDD did you get with this? On the aliExpress listing I see two listings. One with 320gig and ther other with 4tb. The only thing that changes between these is the price. The discretion and amount of games included doesn't change. Yet obviously the 320gig doesn''t hold many games.
Kinhank? Says Hiavenire on the box..its a square hockey puck sized device with a fan vent in the center. It came with 4 ps2 like controllers that are light as he'll but serviceable. I hope that helps. Really not a lot of info on these things for reasons I can imagine. Lol its a few years old.
Seems like the CD audio tracks have been removed for PS1 games. This is a common trick manufacturers of these emulation boxes do to save storage space. So they can cram in more games and increase the game count.
How does this compare to an Nvidia shield? It’s starting to get more and more bloated as time goes on and my emulators don’t run as well as they used to. Does this have decent GPU capabilities to run some retroarch crt shaders?
@@johnhancockretrook does kinhank sell replacement controllers? Any controller that connects through the usb port would work? Like even wired controllers? Basically want to be able to play two player side scrollers with the wife. But I’m technologically impaired. Still learning about downloading roms and flashing sd cards
Ive purchased 3 different types of these products and they NEVER come woth with instructions or a simple button map. If i tried to change controllers to something other than those sold with the unit, its a disaster.
I bought this exact system a few weeks ago but I can’t seem to get the controls to work. They’re all over the place when you click on the games they just won’t start only ones that fully work are NES could you give me some advice

Power the console on, and you’ll be good to play any game with the exception of some Wii games. Also, keep that remote to the android box in handy as you’ll need to use it to access the menu of the Wii and GameCube, and exit the games or adjust setting as needed. I hope that answers your question.
Why is it that a lot of the GameCube games won’t load or work while having the remote on Android mode?
@@hectorgarcia5208If the GameCube games aren’t working, that’s because it’s either a rom or emulator issue.
@@HerbJr316 do your gamecube games run? I just opened my system out of the box and they don't run. Not sure what to do and I'm unable to really find a solution :( I'd rather not hook this thing up to my internet if I can help it.. any advice or help is super appreciated!!!
I put together a 2TB retrobat build with 40 systems over the winter. If you like to tinker with software, I say look into that.
Did you find issues with GameCube games? None of mine work, and using standalone emulator doesn’t help either. Also couldn’t sign into Google Play-store to update anything, just kicked me back to the home screen.
Lease tell me you've found a solution to this? I'm having the same issue 😢
@@TabbyChan935 nope, but apparently mine is a one off.
It looks great !
Haven't played VF since it was in the arcades. But The old man that used drunken monkey style every time.
I would pay more for a better form factor solution to avoid using an external drive that way, maybe an SSD. Still good selection and runs amazing.
I wonder if it's got bashido blade.
Yep
i have the super console xcube. only complaint is controls are not correct for each game, and you need to change them every time you play..
You can save the settings and load it up next time you play, no need to set it again.
@@bantieu55 thanks ill try that
Nifty device … would you recommend a compatible hard drive enclosure for the hard drive they include?
wow, that's a decent console, bet it will sell well
Yeah, I just got this console bro, but I just encountered a problem every time I shut the console off the hard drive is still running. Is that normal?
I have a stupid question that I honestly can't find an answer for. Do you NEED to run this through a Desktop/Laptop CPU or can you plug this directly into a Smart TV?
You do not need a desktop/Laptop. Any modern TV with a HDMI input will work.
I figured out how to get the ps2 wii and gamecube emulators to work. U just gotta map the buttons urself when configuring the control.
I want this... I need to get one before Nintendo sues and shuts it down lol
Power stones was a Sega dreamcast game, not PlayStation portable.
Was ported to psp and show a psp version.
Does it have the original gta Birds Eye view one
It doesnt boot up for me. I plug my controller into my laptop and press rvery button but nothing happens. Anyone know a fix?
Does the WiiU and Switch emulation actually work?
Yeah I saw a different video actually run the Contra collection provided, I don't know if it will run everything Switch can but it should handle quite a bit of it
Hi John, thanks for this video review! You briefly touched on the Atari Jaguar. I would be interested in this unit for the Atari games. Is there a good selection of Jaguar games and are there any issues with playing these games with the included controller? Is the controller XBox compatible?
Good selection of Jaguar, I did not play a ton.
Good luck with trying to get the controller to work with all of the systems without loading cores configuring the controls cause that’s what I had to do it gets very frustrating and annoying each time you want to play a different system unless I got a lemon box.
That’s the same issue I’m trying to have , I mainly wanna play ps2 games and I can’t even dashboard to exit a game , I looked in the manual and used the hot keys it says to exit a game and nothing
Did you buy it? Where did you get it from?Thanks
I periodically cover these and it was sent to me as stated in the description. Link for more info there too.
Just got mine from Amazon
@@craigbfd1how you like it? Ps2 and N64 operate well? Can you tweak resolution if it lags under 60fps?
@@bgkclassic I wound up returning it after it refused to load the ps2 games from the hard drive. Instead I got an Anbernic RG556 handheld which I love, Plays PS2, GameCube,PSP, Saturn and Dreamcast games really well, it has an HDMI out so I can hook it up to the big screen in my Gameroom😃
can this be played on a tv
Well if anybody out there gets this and can help me I would appreciate I had it up and running yesterday tried to reconfigure the controllers. Now when I reboot the system that just says no games found direct me to Pegasus website which doesn't really do anything. I can't even get into the game after that screen the side panel opens up with settings help and quit but do not respond to the controller at all so I have a $300 piece of crap unless I can get help
You need to unhook the SATA cables and hook them back up again. When you plug up the console, you should hear the hard drive make a noise which indicates it’s operational. The games should be good to load up once you start the Pegasus app.
@HerbJr316 thanks, tried that it didn't do anything it just returns to the screen that says no games found. I did accidentally installed Google by mistake when I was trying to properly configure the controller now the super consult X won't recognize the hard drive and let me have any games
@@loveistruth5713 Respectfully, it sounds like you might’ve messed it up. The thing with those Android Box gaming consoles is you gotta stay within the confines of its setup. I learned the hard way with the original Super Console X. You may need to hook that hard drive up to a computer and check to see if the rom and emulator folders are still on there. If so… copy all the files, get the same model hard drive, put those duplicates on that hard drive, and you should be set.
@@HerbJr316 well I don't have a computer or any way to do all that I'm retired I may just have to go through the hassle of sending this back to China
Have you tried Iron Storm and Dragon Force on the Sega Saturn? If you have, do they work well on this?
Can you play a ps4 controller for it ?
Can you connect this to your tv and play or it connects to a desktop computer only?
Connects to a tv
I need a small HDMI compatible emulator for vacations.
Does anyone who has one of these know what’s going on with the Wii controls I mapped everything I was playing Mario kart and no matter how much I push the button the kart moves slow
It really depends on who sets it up they have a bunch of different people setting these up and there's really great ones at it and there's really horrible ones at it
Can you fit a steering wheel to this device if so which is the best one
Does this system have the officially licensed version of Block em Sock em on it?
What do you think of the X7 Max?
What size HDD did you get with this? On the aliExpress listing I see two listings. One with 320gig and ther other with 4tb. The only thing that changes between these is the price. The discretion and amount of games included doesn't change. Yet obviously the 320gig doesn''t hold many games.
4tb
I have same console. But there isnt gamecube in main list. Actually ,it seems when I connect to pc gamecube ,Can we add gamecube games to playlist?
No Amiga emulation?
Does this play background music? The device I currently have it has PS1 games but background music doesn't run in most games.
What device do you have?
Kinhank? Says Hiavenire on the box..its a square hockey puck sized device with a fan vent in the center. It came with 4 ps2 like controllers that are light as he'll but serviceable. I hope that helps. Really not a lot of info on these things for reasons I can imagine. Lol its a few years old.
Seems like the CD audio tracks have been removed for PS1 games. This is a common trick manufacturers of these emulation boxes do to save storage space. So they can cram in more games and increase the game count.
Curious can you take the hard drive and hook it to a mini pc?
Hi Mr Hancock, is zeldo oot 3ds version on that? ..... plz say yes and that it runs good
Can this be plugged into a TV or just a laptop/ computer?
Can you use a n64 controller on this or only the controller that comes with it?
Does it come with all the roms already on it? If so I’m im.
Yes
Emulation is neccessary for game preservation. 90% or games are currently unavailable for purchase and old hardware will eventually die.
How does this compare to an Nvidia shield? It’s starting to get more and more bloated as time goes on and my emulators don’t run as well as they used to. Does this have decent GPU capabilities to run some retroarch crt shaders?
Hey John. I assume two player works, just connect a second Bluetooth controller?
I did not try that but I assume so. No bluetooth as you need wireless receiver for your other controller
@@johnhancockretrook does kinhank sell replacement controllers? Any controller that connects through the usb port would work? Like even wired controllers? Basically want to be able to play two player side scrollers with the wife. But I’m technologically impaired. Still learning about downloading roms and flashing sd cards
Is this a good option to add to my At games ultimate arcade machine???
do you have to download all these games or are they all on the system?
Nothing to download
So nothing to install or download? All those games in this video are all on this system when you purchase the system?
@@johnhancockretroif all those games are on there when you buy this system then i have one last question: Where can you buy this system and how much?
Looks like there is no music on the PS games...again...
Does the box sometime freeze or reboot? Can you make android games work on it?
How many ps2 and dreamcast games does it have
Idc what you guys says I’m still getting I know configure stuff so I’m good and I got a couple wireless controllers so I’m fine
I gotta get this asap
CAN THIS CONSOLE PLAY THE KINHANK 12TB PLUG N PLAY HDD HARD DRIVE?
I believe it go up to 4tb max
@John does it have original NARC on it playable??
I will never buy an emulator console until it can properly pass the Killer Instinct (arcade version) test.
Ive purchased 3 different types of these products and they NEVER come woth with instructions or a simple button map. If i tried to change controllers to something other than those sold with the unit, its a disaster.
I did hear you say it does have an instruction manual btw.
I bought this exact system a few weeks ago but I can’t seem to get the controls to work. They’re all over the place when you click on the games they just won’t start only ones that fully work are NES could you give me some advice
I mention in the video that I too was having control issues.
Can you get a second or third controller?
Is there a way to put original Xbox on here?
Do not know
Hello, I need help with the superconsole x5 pro, I have two gamesir T3 controllers, but I can't get the controllers to play on two players...what should I do? Should I configure the second controller to be able to play games like Tekken? Could you tell me step by step what I should do? An explanation with step-by-step images would help a lot where I should go, thank you....
Can you send me videos or images of how to play 2 players with the gamesir t3 controllers? my email is pajarito639@hotmail.com
Are games such as pac man and donkey Kong on this?
