RetroRGB Weekly Roundup #506: More Than Just Nostalgia (Though There’s Plenty of That)

Bob from RetroRGB returns with Roundup #506—a packed, playful dive into the world of retro tech, mods, and deep-cut trivia. Whether you’re a tinkerer, collector, or just love hearing how obscure gear actually works, there’s something here to spark joy (and maybe a little frustration—looking at you, laserdiscs).

Highlights include the revival of the Saturn 3D Controller’s Bluetooth adapter—yes, that awkward peripheral from 1998 is getting a modern upgrade—and transparent SNES controller shells back in stock, perfect for those who want their setup to glow as hard as their ROM collection.

For the tinkerers: a RePlayOS v1.5.0 update for Raspberry Pi makes arcade emulation smoother than ever, while a DIY JUROG NAS setup (using Ugreen gear) shows how to keep your retro HDDs online—without breaking the bank or your back.

And yes, there’s also a laserdisc examined under a microscope—because why wouldn’t you peek inside that analog glory? Plus, Bob reminds us that indie devs in the ‘90s weren’t all just “small”; some absolutely moved the needle for Sega’s Genesis.
