Retrotink announced the 6X CE upscaler, a hardware device that outputs at 1440p resolution, with shipments beginning next week. The product uses the same architecture as Retrotink’s higher‑priced 4K models, which retail for more than $475, but limits output to 2,560 × 1,440 at a 300 MHz refresh rate. Retrotink’s designer Mike Chi said the new unit addresses rising component costs and ongoing tariff volatility. Priced at $230, the 6X CE targets retro gamers seeking higher resolution without the expense of 4K solutions. The company plans to ship the device beginning next week, offering an alternative to 1080p and 4K upscaling options in the retro gaming market.
