I just picked up Gauntlet for nes and when I load into room 1 I'm greeted with glitched walls misplaced everywhere which let's me walk through some. and there's random items I can't pick up which means I'm unable to continue in the game past room 1

Hyperkin’s products, especially the retron line, are generally considered sub-par for this reason. They’re usually just android-based systems that run emulation from a rom they dump from the cart at runtime. Since they’re low-spec and emulation focused without some of the refinements that come to those emulators over time, they have glitches on some games.
