Blaze Media Day - Hands On Sneak Peek Evercade Alpha, Atari/Technos Super Pockets, New Carts & More 

Lucky you Crazy Burger! Thanks for going the extra mile to take up this invite, and find out things for us Evercader’s. I hope you grilled them over that Roadmap!!! 😊👍

Brilliant! Couldn't happen to a nicer guy and thanks for sharing :-)

Nice one, thanks. Got my Alpha on pre order along with the Atari Super pocket.

Thanks for the sneak peek. The Evercade Alpha looks cool. They need screw hole covers that match to improve the look in my opinion.

I cant wait for the alpha´s.. i go with the standard edition. Thank You for the sneak perview🙏

Thanks for all your vids about Evercade man... It really helped me to decide which version to get based on what I prefer... Subscribing to you now :) Hope Evercade can get licenses for more PS1 games(Final Fantasy series, Legend of Legaia, etc, wishful thinking) i'm interested on how they would play since they have the T omb Raider series already...

Thanks for the video. Great to see the Alpha. I ordered the Streetfighter version, but still had quite a few doubts. Now that I saw these photos, I was positively surprised.

Nice round up and great to meet you there John 🙏

Good stuff, really interesting and I think videos like this will be some of the best promotional stuff for Alpha.

Very nice, it's great you got an early look. Its clear a lot of people seeking answers to all things Evercade find their way here to your channel, as I did. You've made so many videos covering everything they do, probably the biggest money maker they have is you. Removing people's uncertainty about a product opens wallets, I hope you get more down the road you deserve it.

Great video CB. Looking forward to Toaplan 3

Cool that the original DD is going to be available. The bartops look pretty small which is good, getting very tempted.

Good to know I'm not the only one who suffers Double Dragon slowdown (Technos Arcade 1 cart).

Awesome, awesome video Crazy, Christmas came early!!! 😎👍 That first photo of the Alpha had me worried, how small?? Glad to hear you were happy with it after trying! I guess my batrop Pacman is a bit taller with it's vertical screen. Even tho I have SF Alpha coming part of me still wants a Megaman lol. Great to hear Tomb Raider is looking sweet! And wow getting to try Toaplan 3 early very jealous lol. 😆 Awesome stuff Crazy and thanks for sharing!!!

New to Evercade and put my order in for the EXP-R. World Rally 1 & 2 are the titles that convinced me to buy the system, (can't even play World Rally 2 on MAME), so I hope more driving titles are coming. I'm here for the Arcade and Amiga collections so am interested in the Bitmap Brothers Collection 2 and Toaplan Arcade 3. If we're getting some console carts I'd love a Desert Strike collection - oh, and I'd love a Codemasters Collection 2 with Sensible World of Soccer.

I cancelled my order for the arcade mini thingy as felt I wouldn't use it. But still got atari limited edition and thalamus pre order in still

I wonder how many people would be willing to buy a "full-size" arcade Evercade machine. In the same vein as Arcade 1up or iiRcade or Legends Ultimate. If they could keep the price reasonable, I believe they would have some success. Or, has that market been tapped out?

Great update as always. Like you, I’ve not been totally convinced about Alpha, despite pre-ordering one. Definitely looks a little smaller than I thought it might be which will help with woman management though with another child off to Uni, space isn’t really an issue now. Actually think it will make me revisit a lot of games, particularly shooters and fighting genres.

I ordered the woodgrain Atari Super Pocket, but I think I like the red and black more. Any thoughts on the swappable marquees for the Alpha? I was thinking it might be cool to make my own.

Wow... What an awesome invite John 🤩🤩 You must have had a Blast 🎉🎉

It was impossible to play SF2 on the EXP: the Alpha makes sense _in that context._

Thanks for the sneak peek. i wanted to know something about the Super Pocket that i really enjoy. If they improved the D-Pad? i was a lil bit disappointed for that. A "lil bit" because it's hard to play shmup with this console. - ❤ from 🇨🇵 😉

Any info as to what the star menu option is? Between Alpha, cartridge and Library, Settings??

That Alpha is smaller than i thought

I like the woodgrain atari pocket... the technos one im a bit disappointed in as it has the same games as the technos 1 and arcade carts. The same can be said about the atari one but at least the woodgrain is limited edition, so i had to get one of those. The new color scheme of the vs and exp arent really grabbing me. And the alpha is cool but again its just another bar top mini arcade. I am really looking forward to new carts later this year and into the next.

Did those Alphas have both sets of Capcom games on? Can see Strider on the Street Fighter and Street Fighter on the Megaman unit in your photos?

Hoping to see a teardown of the new systems, maybe even the arcade unit 👀 I always love seeing the internals of consoles and im curious about the EXP-R and its missing hdmi port, so did they add anything inside where it used to be? Would love to know. Also how did the EXPR handle fingerprints, being a darker color I hope it doesnt get as bad as my N3DS XL which is noticeable shiny in certain areas lol.

Wasn’t there another cartridge schedule for release in September along with Bitmap Bros? Did we get any news on that?

Hello, for the Tomb Raider cartridge could we change the game language? Thanks.

Went on my lunch break and saw the pre orders for the Hyper Mega Tech Atari & Technos Super Pocket Case Bundle and order 2 of each. Sold out like in 10mins for the Technos case bundle. £54.99 × 4 😎😁 take my money Blaze, wish I pre-ordered the wooden one 😭😢 Have every evercade cartridges. NOT gonna bother with the Alpha, way over priced & should have had online function especially if it's gonna have Sanwa parts, as defence the purpose. Will wait for it to go on sales.

Hello je suis fan d'evercade. Mais à quoi cela sert la Vs r et expr quand on est déjà la Vs et exp ? Plus puissante ?

So what the secrets for 2025 😉🤫😎 looks like a good day 👍

man so much good cartridges here! i think the new capcom cabinets are a improvement over the super pcokets because the screen size was a problem for my eyes. does blaze plan to put in a hdmi slot into their new super pockets?

I want a evercade full size cab

I actually prefer the red and black Atari Super Pocket - that woodgrain looks so tacky and cheap.

Blaze takes way 2 long to release anything, good for me, as I don't need to spend so much and can keep up will completing my 100% cart collection. NOT getting the Alpha, nor the R range consoles as it's more of a downgrade 😅

Straight down A1 Burger? Or did you do the M6, M1 route?

Which Alpha did you like best

No VS-R ???

Man! Seeing the actual Alpha being played by a grown up, makes it look really, really ridiculous. It’s even worse when you remember you cannot connect this to an external display. They delayed the Thalamus and Tomb Raider carts for this. This is the beginning of the end for Evercade.

Where's the Spectrum games? Now that you have some influence with Evercade, where's the Speccy games? WE WANT SPECTRUM GAMES ON THE EVERCADE. Tell your new friends at Blaze we want spectrum games on the Evercade. C64 sucks. Speccy rules.

TIME FOR BLAZE TO INTRODUCE SOME NEW HARDWARE, AFTER ALL ITS BEEN TWO WEEKS SINCE LAST RELEASE. ENOUGH WITH HARDWARE-IMPROVE YOUR SOFTWARE OFFERINGS BLAZE YOU ARE BORING ME🙄

a coin option will be cool, like insert a coin to play, the pandora box console ones did this and its a fun feature to use so it feels like a own lil arcade at home. hopefully dragons lair will come to evercade, it will fit perfectly to the evercade alpha bartop arcade All in one it looks like better Quality than expected and a good size for the hand to play, i was worried they will make the arcade controls smaller and uncomfy to play on like on other bartop arcades but this one looks fair except of the streetfighter one with its empty sides which looks very empty and unfinished but the front looks good,while the megaman one looks finished colorful and fun and hides the speakerholes better. By the way why and how is this guy playing streetfighter on the megaman arcade one here? 3:22
