Posting this in hopes that it saves someone else some troubleshooting. I was getting some seemingly random screen tearing with my SuperStation One, just on the top part of the screen. Was also getting some odd shadow banding in specific in game areas, again just near the top of the screen. Looked very much like a sync issue to me, so I tried tweaking all of the vsync and VRR settings on my SS1, Retrotink 4k, and TV to no avail. I'll spare you the full list of stuff I tried, but I swapped power supplies, tried a new SD card, etc. but it kept happening inconsistently.

Turns out my problem was using a physical memory card without a PS1 controller plugged in. I was playing with a PS5 controller but wanted to try out using a physical memory card, so I had changed pad2 to SNAC and plugged in my memory card to slot 2. It only starts happening once the card is accessed. Goes away if I change the pad from something other than SNAC or if I plug an original PS1 controller in to port 2 (but not port 1).

If anyone wants to see an example, it's really obvious when you're on the world map in Final Fantasy 7. I'm not really looking for a fix, since it's easy enough to avoid and takes a very specific set of circumstances to trigger, but I am curious whether it's just my unit or a larger issue. Hope someone finds this helpful.

My friend gifted me a 1998 SW2 with 231k miles on her. I named her Stella. Sunburned and with a questionable front bumper, She isn’t the prettiest girl on the block, but she is the cutest.

Any advice on what I need to maintain immediately? What are things I can learn to diy? I was told to top the oil every month. But she gets cool and runs fine and is a great girl

I think we can be together for a while.

Dear All,

I do not understand what batch I'm in or when do I get my dock.

I initially ordered the Superstation One with dock on day one of reveal, on January, 26, 2025. Color is transparent blue.

Following an email from RR to notify dock delays, they suggested to make a choice (receive everything later, or receive separately for aditional cost, or get a refund).

Then I decided to receive the Superstation one first, and the dock later. I got the initial dock deposit refunded and I made an order for the dock on October 25, 2025.

Indeed, I was a lucky one to receive the SS1 early.

Now I see many people receiving their dock but mine is not shipped according to Shop, no email or nothing from RR.

I'm sorry and I don't want to look impatient, I'm just wondering I've been forgotten. I have no idea how to know what is my batch. I was very early to order.

Is it possible I've been forgotten ?

Just wonder what size microsd should I get..

Hello, I was wondering what you guys in Germany end up paying in total when you got the SuperStation together with its dock delivered. With all the taxes and import fees what did it end up costing? Id really love the combo but wonder how much id end up paying.

Just the usual appreciation post, that pretty much everything that WULFF DEN said in his recent Superstation One video was wrong.

I saw him recommending a Scanline Preset I hadnt tried so I fired up my Superstation One, had to restart my Mac which didnt recognize the Shadowcast 3 as a capture card anymore - but as a video input device, rearanged my windows. Connected my controller, entered Tekken 3, picked a character - entered the first stage, picked his recommended preset. Laughed. Reset back to my default one. Played through Arcade mode once. Shut down my device unplugged everything and had this lingering form of anger coming up ...

But he has long hair.

I mean everything in wrong.

• Keyboard needed for controller mapping. (wrong)
• Keyboard needed for L3 R3 mapping. (wrong)
• This thing in basically a Playstation (wrong)
• Analog working in some games and not in others (its called a Playstation analogue toggle... (Also you can double map digital to analog so it works in every game))
• Probably the cheapest Mister out there (wrong)
• Default Analog/Digital toggle keypress named wrongly
• Introduction video was not short enough.
• A really bad Scanline preset recommended (-50% of brightness, for PSX games, but who cares)
• Wouldnt it be great if this had an interface where it automatically pulled covers and (meaning he doesnt understand the cover ecosystem out there - we had sites shut down, or made accounts mandatory, just because of the traffic cheap chinese device sent to cover servers, ...)
• The Mister menu is cumbersome (wrong)
• The UI is "a promise" (its a beta, but.. eh)
• It doesnt default to be a PSOne (well you could create favourites...)
• He'd like to see better shaders built in for GBA that mimic handheld screens a bit better (plays GBA on non integer correct and in Fullscreen mode) - I mean, its the Mister community...
• N64 is about where the mister reaches its limit (nope)
• You need to find an N64 bios file (nope, not a bios in the conventional sense just microcode)
• "I think its like update.bat and you can put it on the mister and it will update all your cores" (nope, someone in his discord step by steped him I'm sure)
• "Perfect Dark has, I think a little bit more slowdown than actual hardware would produce" (nope)

Then he begins to shill for his software emulation devices, because that is where hes getting most of his ad-money from and its minute 11 in the video - and I'm finally clicking close to write this posting.

I mean its...

You look at him, you listen to his words, ... and nothing.

Everything wrong.

"Very bad device. Discdrive dont work currently." "I always say buy what it is, not what is promised, see guys - I got your back." Yeah. Fair enough.

So short heads up for everyone, we slimly escaped being visited by his userbase as a subreddit - which is a positive, and Retroremake didnt even take a financial hit, because all units are sold out as of now, and no preorders available until Retroremake gets their parts forecast - and for most of his viewership, everything is an impuls purchase anyhow.

I mean - they have 7-10 of the emulation devices he recommends, but no MisterFPGA - thats why chinese manufacturers love him. Such great turnover rate.

Sometimes, things have a tendency to just work out in this world.

Video link on youtube.

I couldnt be made to link it, ...

I mean - see this from the perspective of someone who helps others on these forums - how to get wrong information out of people with a parasocial bond to the best Retro Youtuber ever?

You can try, but do you want to?

There are a number of N64 games where emulation is not allowed for speedrun times, and I’m wondering if games like Beetle Adventure Racing would run “cycle perfect” and accurately reproduce the physics of original hardware? Not really asking in hopes of mounting a record challenge, more just curious about how games actually run on the SS1 hardware

I happily received my superstation and its dock and discovered they were already assembled.

I installed a nvme ssd lying around, gpt partition then exfat formated it, rsync all my roms and then properly unmounted the dock.

After I start the superstation SSD doesn’t show up under /media/usb0.

Should I partition as mbr ? Where did I screw up ?

Mostly looking for one as a gift, but I noticed that the current preorder batch is sold out on the website.

Will there be another batch to order preferably in black? Don’t know where that type of news is usually discussed.
