A new device has been released that will allow retro gaming fans to play their hordes of SNES and Megadrive carts on their PCs.

The Retrode 2 is a new USB device that allows 16-bit console fans to play their remaining cartridges in their PCs via any emulator without drivers and even use their original controllers as well.

The device is produced in and is available to pre-order from the Retrode website for 65 EUR or 85 USD.

If there is any doubt over the legality of this it should be cleared up by the fact that users are playing official cartridges that they bought rather than downloading illegal ROMs.

Thanks MCV.
