- Evercade is launching new additions to its Super Pocket handheld lineup
- The Atari and Technos editions will include curated game collections from those iconic brands
- A limited-run woodgrain version of the Atari handheld will also be available
Game preservation remains a hot-button topic that often sparks strong opinions. Whether it's debates about piracy or suggestions to "just emulate it," finding common ground can be challenging. Thankfully, several companies now provide legitimate ways to access classic games without the steep prices of the collector's market.
Evercade stands out in this space, having just announced its newest Super Pocket models. While Capcom and Taito versions already exist, October 2024 will welcome Atari and Technos editions, each featuring handpicked games from these legendary publishers.
The Atari edition will also receive a special woodgrain variant, limited to just 2,600 units worldwide.
Authentic retro appealWith most handheld gaming devices focusing on emulation, it's refreshing to see officially licensed alternatives. Evercade has built solid credibility over recent years, though some might view the 2,600-unit limit as a marketing tactic - unless that woodgrain finish is genuinely real.
The Super Pocket's compatibility with existing Evercade cartridges means you can build a portable retro collection while still enjoying those games on your home console when desired.
These new Super Pocket editions arrive in October 2024.
