calling all retro duo owners!
just starting the thread again to let everyone know...
please send me your compatibility lists with all of your games. i will add it to the continually growing list in the retro duo topic with your name behind it! i want to offer as much info on the retro duo as possible to all benheck forum members and anybody else who may wander in here.
thanks so much!

Just sent you a PM.
I recently got my Retro Duo and started testing some games. I think it's a fun system. Definitely step above FC Twin.
I did notice that one of the sound channel doesn't work on SNES mode. Is this normal? This was a case for both games I tried so far (Super Mario World and Super R-Type).
Also, my Actraiser does not work on Retro Duo but works on my original SNES. I know the battery is dead on that cart so I can't save anything. But I don't know if that is the factor for not playing on Retro Duo. I will try it again after replacing the battery in following weeks.
I also have couple of unique NES carts. they are Alex Mauer's chiptunes on NES cart (http://headlessbarbie.com/). He produces those himself. I have both Vegavox and Color Cave. Vegavox works fine on Retro Duo. But Color Cave is not working. Alex thinks he knows why it's not working and is willing to exchange the cart for me. So I guess it's more of the cart issue. Both work fine on original NES btw...

naw. it'll get too complicated that way. that's why i bold all the not working ones.Torokun wrote:What do you think about color coding the working status categories?
For example green for "good/perfect" and red for "not working"?
