I hadn’t really paid much attention to Evercade before, but at $60 in a Game Boy Pocket form factor that Taito edition is a no-brainer. That’s worth it for Bust-a-Move alone. And now that I’m in, I’m in. 😆 I preordered the Sunsoft cartridge so I can squeeze in some Blaster Master Boy in between rounds of Liquid Kids and Don Doko Don. Can’t wait! Thanks for the preview, keep up the good work!

@sherekhangamedev 11 месяцев назад

Sweet, those could be mid-low budget, but I'm impressed with the build quality, even on camera they don't look cheap and sound and screen is really solid. Good game selection too, and the option to use the cartridges, really they nail it with their products. About no autoloading the cartridge, I see it in the other way, maybe I'm traveling and want all packed inside the console, but not want to play right away a cartridge title, but a build in, and removing the cartridge will be a bit unpractical, it's more on the line of the Nintendo Switch, I don't remember if DS also have this feature. I don' t have one right now. Thanks for sharing, John!

Gutted that i heard Forgotten Worlds controls are awkward and lame, using the shoulders for rotate. I was keen to get the Capcom for that and Strider. Now i think I'll pick up the Taito one instead, j prefer colour scheme of that one. Love that can play all my Everdrive cartridges. ... Now I just need Blaze to do what they do to get license for some ZX Spectrum versions of my favourites; Chuckie Egg, Project Future, 180, Jack the Nipper 2, Agent X, Xenon, Wizball... and that would be just perfect, pretty please Blaze 👌

@Machovelli 10 месяцев назад

Aesthetically I like the Capcom version better. But the Taito games appeal to me more. Darn it, I hope there will be a Taito Evercade card. Maybe just buy the two then if not...

@baroncalamityplus 11 месяцев назад

Having to own and carry around multiple evercade systems just to have access to all the games is a deal breaker. I’m done with buying any more evercade hardware. Probably done buying the carts as well.

@Htbaa 11 месяцев назад

I’m not done with buying carts, but I’m not getting more hardware to play these games. Already own the Evercade, VS and Exp.

@KeenRetroGames 11 месяцев назад

The Taito one has a lot more games and some real classics. If you want Capcom the EXP is a better deal.

@tomflanagan3889 9 месяцев назад

I just got the capcom one for Christmas. I have always been curious about Evercade. This is a great way for me to dip my toe in the water.

@TaeKwonMoe Месяц назад

I wouldn't want it to automatically go to the cartridge it just adds more to the collection. I would just keep the cartridge in on a trip so that I have more choice. This thing is pretty awesome. I just got the Playdate and that is probably 60 dollars worth. I would have paid almost 200 for this thing. Getting one of these today for sure!

@Serpsss 11 месяцев назад

One of my kids is just starting to take an interest in gaming. If I get them one of these then they can experience some of the same pain & frustration I did growing up playing some of these titles 😂

@sesa2984 8 месяцев назад

I'm so torn because I really want to get into an evercade, I want the VS mostly cause I like consoles and it frankly is just perfect for me aesthetically and practically, but I'm paycheck to paycheck or less. So I COULD grab one of these, having had a gameboy and never a gamegear etc. I enjoy this styling better. However, I can't play it WITH my fiancee and the other handheld can be used as another controller for added value if I do get a vs eventually. I think I'm just gonna have to wish for some VS money to drop out of the sky!

@antonj182 11 месяцев назад

You don't support developers: there is no one left from the team that made games 30-40 years ago. You are only enriching a lazy copyright holder, who has done nothing to preserve video game heritage. Emulators were written by a group of enthusiasts, even game roms are often used from open "illegal" sources (hello to Nintendo and their virtual console). These corporations would have been happy if emulators didn't exist back in the day, so I see no reason to support them.

@fthprodphoto-video5357 10 месяцев назад

Just purchased 3x of the capcom edition ;) After testing one I purchased 2 more ! To me the best graphic setting is to set the scan lines half way and the screen in normal mode, the 50% scan lines will ad a slight CRT effect and make a denser / darker picture with more contrast

@andrewdavidscott8731 11 месяцев назад

@danthegamingmanYT 10 месяцев назад

@quikeism 11 месяцев назад

Actually the option to select Evercade once the cartridge is inserted is the best option, what if I want to switch and play Street Fighter instead? I would need to remove the cartridge for that and if I’m not at home where would I store it? So yes this is the best way to access the games.

@Cynbel_Terreus 10 месяцев назад

I don't think having to menu to swap to the cart is a bad thing. This does mean you could have a cart you like playing in at all times but still like to swap to the included games. Also this is similar to the DS, so again, not really an issue to me.

@gardyjure118 11 месяцев назад
