I purchased this power adapter for a replacement for my kids game. The adapter works good, I haven’t had any problems with it not working. I am very satisfied with this purchase. It’s worth the money!

I bought this in hopes of reviving my old Super Nintendo. I have been putting off getting a new ac adapter, in the fear of getting one that doesn't work (I have read a lot of different negative reviews from various adapters). Finally, I decided to give this one a try. I was a little nervous when I first held it. Much, much lighter than the original old ac adapter that could pass for a dumbbell, I thought that it would be a dud. Got even more nervous when it didn't work right away after hooking up the game system. But of course, it had collected some dust over the years, so I figured it was just the system. Sure enough, after a few tries, it fired right up! I have been using it for about a week now, has been working great! I'm not certain how it works on the original Nintendo or Genesis yet, I will keep this updated! Thank you!

I got the Retro-bit "Super Retro" Ac adapter that is compatible with nes,snes, and genesis 1. There is two plug-in cables running off of it, one for nes/snes and one for sega genesis model 1. Before i tried the adapter with my SNES (that i NEEDED a power cable for a long time for), I used my multimeter to test the voltage,(because i read some of the other reviews of the product running at 15v) and it ran just over 9 volts (which it is suppose to be at) on both plugs. So i tried it on my SNES and it just worked fine, no whining or humming, or overheating so far (like some of the other reviews said) and i have played for a few hours. Idk why these other people were having trouble, but there adapters must have got broken in the mail, or they got different adapters. This one is really light in weight compared to the original SNES adapter, but seems to function the same for the SNES, and im sure it would work just fine on the Genesis, and nes also. Very happy with my purchase over all.

The pros - it works as intended and will power up a Gen1 Genesis (says "HD Graphics" on the top), original SNES and NES. The power output is identical to my factory SNES power adapter. It is also the same voltage for a Gen1 Sega CD unit (drawer type). On the NES and SNES I saw no issues while powering any games I attempted with it. It is lighter weight because it is a modern power converter, and will not heat up like the classic units. It would have been nice if they had made it a smaller brick. The cons - it is NOT enough power for later generation Gen1 Genesis titles. While older titles (Sonic 1, Columns, Streets of Rage) power up fine, it struggles to give enough juice to handle later titles (such as Sonic 3). If purchasing to use with a Gen1 Genesis there are much better options, including a RetroDC solution which can power the Genesis, SegaCD and 32x off a single wall outlet. It is also providing DC power, which is not what the original NES used for power service. The original NES adapter used 9VAC output, instead of 9VDC. This will not damage the unit, but be aware that it's not the exact same power output as an original unit.

I kept reading about how the original SNES power adapter was a DC 10V 850mA, but all the aftermarket adapters are 9V, so it got a lot of mixed reviews. The original power adapter that came with my unit burned out back in 1996, so I got a replacement back when you could still find them in stores. I lost the power supply one of the times I moved, so the console has been seating in storage collecting dust for quite a few years. I was really skeptical when I got this one, and my TV didn't get any response at first, but it turned out the gold pins inside the cartridges were dirty, so after cleaning a game with alcohol the picture showed up on the screen without any problems. I cannot really say anything about any other brands, but this one worked for me.

If I could give this Zero stars, I would. While it may *TECHNICALLY* work for a short while... due to the insufficient current, I can say this unit with it's poor design will be taxed to the point rapid failure, or even potentially becoming a fire hazard (absolutely no UL or other safety certifications I could find), let alone damaging your vintage console. I would describe the circuit design as horrible and inadequate and a great way to permanently damage your vintage console. I won't bore you with the nitty gritty electronics details of what makes the design bad, especially for vintage equipment, but I will say this: I refuse to even test this power supply to even verify it produces power, let alone connect one of my systems to it. OEM SNES Power Supply: 10v 850mA output. This Aftermarket Garbage: 9v 350mA output. (not enough voltage, not enough current) It's mostly air inside which explains a lot because I bet this circuit gets hot as hell, and needs to dissipate that heat somewhere. Let this serve as a reminder that you should track down (or refurbish) an original OEM supply if at all possible. These cheap after market power supplies just don't cut it. Additionally, there is another "gut shot" picture posted by By amazon user Borano on Nov 17, 2019... and you can compare his pictures to mine, and see that the quality of this supply has gone even further downhill (his power supply actually has full-wave rectification and some additional minimal protection, unlike mine). AVOID THIS RETRO POWER SUPPLY AT ALL COSTS!!!

i live in Spain. Why would you send me an american plug? really? so what can i do with it now?

Falso, non compatibile con supernintendo. Sembra che sia vuoto all'interno. Non avevo modo di provarlo subito, quindi non ho fatto il reso. Evitare

Hace algunos meses compre un Super Famicom de Japón que no tenía cable de alimentación, compre este adaptador con dudas pero ha servido bastante bien, no tuve problemas visuales ni de audio como veo que mencionan, lo he probado muy pocas veces tanto en super famicom como en super nintendo y en ninguna noté nada raro. Es verdad que el material se ve un poco barato o frágil y es mas ligero que el original pero no deberíamos esperar más por el precio que tiene. Creo que es una buena alternativa para tener de repuesto en lo que compras uno original o para personas que tienen varias consolas compatibles y no encuentran el cable original (como mi caso).

Works like a charm, lol. Back to playing super Mario, and Mario kart. Bought this same one maybe 2 years ago worked great but all of a sudden I went to play one day after not playing for quite some time and the adapter wasn't working. But for the price you can't complain.

It's a lot lighter than I expected, for a power supply anyways. I plugged it into the wall and to the machine, seemed to run fine. The contacts to the outlet seem a bit weird. It has to be in the outlet 'just so' or it doesn't work. If you jiggle the cord while the machine is on it'll turn off and back on again. Also, the box split open along the seam while I was pulling it from the wall. Had to shut off the breaker to the outlet cause it was totally exposed at that point and I didn't want to touch it cause it was still plugged in. I taped it back together, not something I expected to have to do. Repair a product I've used for all of 5 minutes. I've since went to a flea-market and found a proper adapter. I'll probably never use this POS again.
