What is RetroSpy?
RetroSpy, the next iteration of NintendoSpy, is a hardware+software solution used to display controller inputs on your stream, speedrunning validation, game tutorials, and more. It can convert controller presses into keystrokes to control programs on your computer, such as a split timer, broadcasting software, or any other application that uses a keyboard shortcut. Designed by gamers, speedrunners, and streamers.
