CES 2012 will be the place to be January 10-13, 2012, and it turns out Hyperkin will be there with some interesting new products. Not only will the all-in-one RetroN 3 be on display, but the SupaBoy handheld can be tested out and a slew of Game Genies for multiple consoles and handhelds. It looks more »

Even though the DS is gradually reaching the end of its lifecycle, some companies are still holding out hope for it. Atlus is one, as it’s planning to release Devil Survivor 2 in 2012. Hyperkin is the other, as it’s just announced its Game Genie DS, DSi and DSi XL cheat device. The Game Genie is a combination cheat code device, game save backup system and mp3 player. As long as you get yourself a microSD card and slip it into the cartridge, you can use this $19.99 device to back up your saves from your game cartridges, download cheat codes with its WiFi receiver or load it up with your favorite songs…

You never forget the classics. You know, those old SNES games you grew up with and remember playing for hours in your living room. You never had to worry about patches. Glitches usually weren’t heartbreaking. Every bit of the game was immediately available on the cartridge and you didn’t have to pay more for extra content. It was a magical time. Now, for $79.99, you can relive those days on the go with Hyperkin’s Supaboy.

The Supaboy is a portable SNES….

The absolute worst thing about the 3DS is the battery life. People who use it at its best are lucky to get three hours of battery life, leading people to cut corners however possible, using minimum settings and adjusting usage to make the charge last as long as possible. This has led a number of third party peripheral manufacturers to step up with alternatives. Hyperkin’s 3DS Powerplus is one of those other power possibilities. However, the Powerplus is more of a last minute supplement for players, rather than a device to replace or compliment the existing 3DS battery…

The PS3 Remotext is a device that is designed to be a solution for the multiple input methods the PS3 supports. This controller can be used to play games, control media and handle typing tasks with its slide-out keyboard. For $29.99, the Remotext is cheaper than purchasing the official PS3 DVD/Blu-ray remote and PS3 keypad attachment, but price alone isn’t enough to recommend this over standalone products.

Hyperkin started showing off the PS3 Remotext during E3 2011 and now we have one in our possession. The Remotext is available from Amazon.com for $29.99. This controller is a three-in-one device that acts as a regular PS3 controller, Blu-ray/DVD remote and PS3 keyboard. If that kind of thing interests you, check out our unboxing video.

Hyperkin is planning to share a beast of a device at E3 2011 this year. It’s a brand new PS3 controller that literally packs everything into a single controller. Seriously, if there’s a feature that somehow didn’t make it into the PS3 Remotext, then you really don’t need it. The PS3 Remotext combines a controller, remote and keyboard into one pretty awesome and compact amalgamation…

Like Nyko, Hyperkin is stepping up to aid 3DS owners who are tired of charging their handheld every night because the battery is already drained. It is now working on the 3DS Powerplus. Yup – it’s another battery. Trust me, as a 3DS owners this is something to be excited about.

If you have the Powerplus replace what your 3DS comes with, you get a 1800mAH battery instead of a 1300mAH one. That means the battery life of your system will be at least doubled after you install it and power it up…

Retro gamers will have a whole new device to covet soon. Hyperkin is known for creating various adaptations of retro consoles. For example, it created a RetroN3, a system capable of playing NES, SNES and Sega Genesis games. Right now, it’s working on the SupaBoy. That is, a handheld Super Nintendo and Super Famicom system. That is just too cool…

When a company like Hyperkin comes out with a new console that will play my old carts and use my old controllers, I’ll gladly dust off old boxes to give those games a reminder of what a console feels like under its olde circuit board. This system works well but shipped with a component with a serious issue…
