8 Evercade Carts YOU MUST buy! Perfect for first time owners of the Evercade EXP or VS! 

The Gaelco carts were a real eye opener for me and great fun,I'd never heard of the developer until Evercade..Thunderhoop 2 and the Rally games are awesome and i now have a real soft spot for Big Karnak.

I'm a little late to the Evercade party. Thanks for introducing me to Xenocrisis! DAMN WHAT A BANGER!!!!

Love it! I've never seen anything like this, I hope I can find one. Great video! Thanks for sharing buddy

For three seconds I thought it was a foreign language video, then my brain automatically tuned into Scottish mode.

There are currently four Evercade carts that are now out of license. They currently can not be purchased via Amazon us or Amazon uk. From the Evercade blog (all 4 titles are now flagged as "Currently Unavailable"; date license ended indicated: Namco Collection 1 (ended June 2022) Will not work in Vs as of firmware 2.1.1 Namco Collection 2 (ended June 2022) Will not work in Vs as of firmware 2.1.1 Technos Collection 1 (ended March 2022) Oliver Twins Collection (ended March 2022) The only one that I don't already own, Technos Collection 1 (the Red Case release; the Purple Case release of Technos Arcade 1 is still in license and is readily available), I've purchased on eBay from a seller in Australia. I didn't pay silly money for it, but these four titles are going up in price on eBay. Although this information is readily available on the internet I've never seen anyone do a video about it. Blaze Entertainment has said that they are working to renegotiate the lost licenses. I've verified that all three carts that I already own still work in the original Evercade handheld.

Some great choices. I would add the Codemasters cart too. This video will be very useful for the new Evercade owners joining the ranks this Christmas Good work CB. 👍

Thanks Crazy Burger just ordered 3 carts from watching this video thank you 👍👍

Some great choices as always CB. I must say it was cool to see the Gaelco Jaleco Arcade carts as they are the 2 of the last 3 I don't own. I was surprised that Renovation didn't make the cut. Some outstanding games on there too. Personally Data East Arcade is the cart I play the most, really getting into Breakthru but it's so tough! Fab choices as ever. Another great video.

Thank you, this has really helped!

Never played the atari lynx back then but I really enjoy their carts, some games I was interested never showed up and I hope we see a collection 3 eventually 🤞

Very good choices. The only one I personally wouldn’t think is needed of these is the Indie Heroes and I’d probably replace it with Renovation but that’s just me

I’ve got 3 out of those 8. Again I think it boils down to what games in particular you personally are drawn back to play over others?! Having 1 GREAT game on a Cart doesn’t make it a contender for being “One of the Best”. So I personally think that number of 8 is a lot smaller. Also I think DATA EAST (collection 1) could be a contender. It offers a fair amount of games, which are not just varied but are GOOD! 🤔

I would absolutely recommend Renovation collection as one of the "must owns". Games like Gaiares, Arcus Odyssey (great in co-op!), Granada, and El Viento are so much fun! Even the bad games of the collection have some endearing charm with their ambitious intro graphics and cool music. Renovation and Gaelco 1 are my favourite carts. Personally I´m not that fond of the games published by Mega Cat. I bought Collection 1 just for Tänzer and that one game is lightyears ahead of the other titles. Little Medusa and Old Towers are pretty good, but the rest felt uninspired. I haven´t bought Mega Cat 2, but since the first collection wasn´t to my taste I´d better stick to other carts. Very much looking forward to Jaleco Arcade, it´s one I don´t own and Avenging Spirit looks like it´s a blast to play! I hope we´ll get even more lesser known arcade games in 2023. I´ve already got lots of titles from the likes of Capcom and Sega, there are so many overlooked games from Data East, Jaleco and Irem that would excite me more!

I feel like if the Piko cart was coming out today it would be split over 2 to 3 carts.

I’d probably have added Atari 1 love that cartridge and lynx 1 and 2 ,but the rest are solid picks.

no worms collectio seriously :P

Is there a hidden game unlocked (on the VS) if you have both Megacat 1 and 2? I was just googling around to check… can't find an answer…

I'm sorry, but there's NO excuse for choosing Tanglewood/Xenocrisis over Renovation...Tanglewood and Xenocrisis suck a duck compared to Valis and El Viento (or Beast Wrestler in my opinion) and you get WAY better value with 12 games on the cart vs 2 games!

Just wondering any arcade horseracing games out on evercade

What, no Renovation? Denied!

There is no game on the physical cartridge! We are being tricked by this shady company!

My favourite game is the one ☝️ that goes pew pew pew pew ding ding dong dang crackle bang bang …. or was that a dream ♥️
