@bkslsh 4 года назад

On the subject of Earthworm Jim, as a 26 year veteran of the series, Genesis does what nintendon't. The visuals are very similar, it's the sound where it really shines on Sega. It's got that gritty, metallic Genesis sound that makes the music hit different.

@obsoleteworlds 4 года назад

Another review that missed the problematic stuttering of some Genesis game music. I really thought you guys would pick up on it. Try listening to the opening music of Tinhead on the Piko cart and you'll hear what I'm talking about. I also heard it during Earthworm Jim, Radical Rex and others. This is in handheld mode. I'm glad you at least highlighted the issues with Top Racer which Evercade still seem reluctant to admit is a fault. Unfortunately it's not the only issue with this cart. I found that Drakkhen freezes instead of playing its ending and their are the audio issues mentioned above. Another key audio related thing you missed. The device is incompatible with modern 3 channel headphones (the kind with built in mics or volume controls). You will get corrupted or distorted sound if using these so will need to seek out some regular 2 channel headphones.

@snx70 4 года назад

Yes guys, retro ROMs can be found freely on the internet and played pretty much for free, but I like the fact we can buy physical licences games and the way they have made it simple for anyone to play them. It certainly also appeals to gamers to like to collect games. Evercade isn't perfect, by far, but it's cheap and accessible. My worst complaint is the lack of proper scaling options and no custom button-mappings (not yet anyway). I would also love a sleep-mode since that would be more practical on the go.

@MaaZeus 4 года назад

@@99Vood99 Maybe, but every portable clone system that I am aware of (those that come with pirated roms atleast) screw up in one of the most important things, the sound. Sound emulation is horrendous, sometimes even missing whole channels. Considering how important music is for these old classics this is a major oversight that somehow gets copied from different clone system to clone system. This probably means they are all based on same chipset that was flawed from day 1.

@BrunoFonsecaPT 4 года назад

I think this device is being misunderstood. It was built on a budget (hence the 16:9 non IPS screen), for people that still appreciate having their games in physical format on a shelve. The D-Pad is much better than it has any right to be at price point and it’s very satisfying having to insert and remove the cartridge from the unit. I feel they could have spent some time fine tuning the control mapping and a few other minor bugs to avoid the bad press, but I guess that can all be fixed with patching nowadays. The experience using this device is significantly different from a Roms Chinese handheld, and that may not be relevant for a lot of people, but if you’re a retro gamer that still has fond memories of blowing into your cartridges, you will appreciate what they are trying to do here. Is it perfect? No, and if you think it should be at this price point, you’re just out of touch with reality, but it’s still great fun. Fingers crossed they continue to patch and improve this unit.

@BlUsKrEEm 4 года назад

I love my unit. I am a little sad to see these comments, but even if the system fails it's already in my top 3 handhelds with the library as it stands.

@gluttonousmaximus9048 4 года назад

It really could have benefitted from some natively developed games. What is it, a Cortex-A7 core? Might as well give it a distribution network so that dedicated mobile developers can make somewhat modern games for it. Just to run badly optimized emulators is a waste of its potential.

@Openreality 4 года назад

Yeah I've seen a mixed reviews for it. The channels I watch regularly all liked it, but there have been just as many channels that I don't follow that often basically land blasted it. I think it'll suit my needs perfectly and I won't have to worry about Nintendo switch anytime soon.

@Suedeash 4 года назад

Yeah these comments make me a bit sad, it's essentially a £40 handheld that does its job pretty well and is quite well-built with a Mega Drive style D-pad. It has very real flaws, all of which could have been avoided if it was more expensive, but I've had a blast using it.

The Nintendo Switch Lite has three Konami collections, a Capcom collection, an Atari collection, an SNK collection, a Sega Mega Drive collection, a Namco collection, and it has a very long series of arcade classics by a company called Hamster, not to mention the Sega Ages series. I don't understand why they made the Evercade. There was no need for it. Even the PSP and the 3DS are much better.

@ccateni28 4 года назад

I think the idea of having indie game collections. They are more lacking on those devices and some have yet to even show up.

@thewingedavenger1007 4 года назад

@@ccateni28 Actually the Switch has more retro collections on it than the Evercade does. I just didn't name all of them. And if you count the retro games available for separate download, it becomes even clearer that the Evercade is a pointless console created by nostalgic fanboys, much like the Intellivision Amico and the new Atari system that are about to come out.

Bilinear filters are not something people seem to like but in my experience when it comes to arcade or Genesis games it's a must. The reason for this is because the blurring effect of the filter gives the sprites more detail especially in shaded areas.

While Joe's Game Sack video was a fair one, people really took his complaint about the audio issues too far, with many even trying to claim that all previous people who made videos on the Evercade were nothing but shills, and that Joe was the only one willing to speak the truth. They even tried calling Digital Foundry's John Linneman a shill, since he was overall positive on the device, which is ridiculous. I'm not completely sold on the Evercade either, but it's not like people are absolutely burying it, either.

The latter would show up everywhere including handheld while the former is only going to hit select setups.

@TheLandofObscusion 4 года назад

Sorry Coury, but it's not likely that NES Karnov, or even Atomic Runner Chelnov (since you brought it up, as well) will ever see release on the Evercade, and G-mode doesn't have the rights to those titles. While G-mode got seemingly 95% of Data East's catalog after the bankruptcy, the remaining few went all over the place, and developer Paon wound up getting Karnov, Chelnov, Glory of Heracles, the Kuuga Trilogy of shooters, & (most notably) Windjammers; yeah, G-mode can re-release games with Karnov & Chelnov in them, but don't have the rights to the actual games they star in. Unless Evercade eventually sees a "Paon Collection" for its Data East games, I doubt those will ever appear.

@LeoA2600 4 года назад

I don't think I've ever heard niche pronounced that way, but interesting and entertaining video none the less. I think I'll wait and see what if anything happens with their arcade plans in 2021 and their potential consolized Evercade. I do hope though to see some of the newly translated Namco Famicom games be ripped for Everdrive/Powerpak use like has happened with the recent digital collections on XB1/PS4/NS. There's some overlap with those two digital compilations the Evercade lineup, but several newly translated games like Mappy Kids are exclusive to the Evercade at this time.

@LeoA2600 4 года назад

And lastly, Top Gear was actually always Top Racer in Japan on the Super Famicom. What's here is the Japanese rom I suspect, which has some subtle differences like different fuel burn rates for the cars. Would be easy to see in the controller options screen since the Japanese version shows a Super Famicom styled gamepad. I suspect the renaming isn't for what this video alludes to though. My money is on Kemco keeping the Top Gear name for videogaming and only selling Top Racer and the three 16-bit classics to Piko while holding onto the rights to the name itself. But then again maybe it does have something to do with the unrelated BBC television show.

@Suedeash 4 года назад

I bought one after being pretty skeptical about it, and after 3 days of using it pretty often it's damn good for the price. I'd recommend it solely for Mappy Kids on the starter pack. Obviously this stuff is emulated on any old potato but the console has great buttons and feels pretty great, the carts are ridiculously tight fits at first but after 2 days they've loosened up to a pretty decent level. Would definitely follow developments regarding its games if you're interested, they're out of stock for the foreseeable future.

@Harlock2day 3 года назад

@mattnova18 4 года назад

Still not sure I'll get this. I have a psp [with cfw] that still works and I have a large collection of original retro games too. Its only $99, so might as well. Just wish they had button mapping and a few filter options. That's fairly basic stuff. Emulators on the raspberry pi or psp are a bit complex at times though, so maybe it was just a path they didn't want to go? Excited to see how many more games they release and long term durability tests. Great video man!

I just got the Gameboy Advance SP IPS pre-modded and the screen looks awesome not to mention the 10 levels of brightness. I also made sure the case I ordered was Spongebob themed because I have GBA Movie Player CF version and I post processed and converted my 2004 Spongebob Movie from my DVD to a GBM/GBS format using GBA Movie Converter 1.50 so a Spongebob Movie on a Spongebob GBA SP is fitting. Also do my eyes deceive me or does the screen look bigger somehow? Although there is 1 complaint about the IPS panel, it looks orange/beige tinted which kind of throws away color accuracy like an orange filter that can possibly be annoying to look at. However the rest is awesome I give the mod 4.5 stars.

A couple things about build quality are surprising to me that these issues made it to the final product. One is the cart slot is SUPER tight. It's quite difficult and annoying putting a cart in and out. I always smudge up my screen in the process. Second is the hdmi port is not lined up with the hole in the case. I haven't tried to plug a cable in it yet, so I hope it still works. It is also annoying how games are split up between carts, like Earthworm Jim 1 and 2 being on separate carts, forcing you to buy both if you want them. They probably did this to help with covering the costs of development by making people spend more for all the carts or by having a bunch more carts than they would otherwise making it more likely people will buy it, seeing it having numerous carts. Overall, I like the idea of it and I don't regret buying it, but the quirks and quality issues are very odd.

@mylifeingaming 4 года назад

[Coury] Oh wow, the cartridge fit wasn't fixed on retail units? There was a note in the box talking about the tight fit and how it would be fixed for retail units. I'd have said something if this was gonna be the case - its not so much putting it in for me, but taking them out that was annoying.

I refuse to buy the Dizzy Camerica collection since that collection was worse than the NES LJN titles in fact they made LJN look like EA on a good day. Also I won't hook mine up to a TV because I like the handheld aspect of the device itself.

Would be nice if they released a consolized version of this for $20 or so cheaper...AND A SECOND CONTROLLER PORT!

What we really need is simply good adapters for phones, more purpose built gaming phones, and better android ad iOS emulators. This is cool and all but I just can’t get over the idea of spending 3-400 bucks on a really nice retro handheld that irl is a lot slower than the phone I carry every single place that I go. Apple made the Apple Arcade. Imagine if they made a phone with mods for gaming.

Still not sure why they chose a 480x272 screen for pre-PSP retro games.

The pillarbox throws me off. Is it really that hard to get a fullscreen experience?

No pixel perfect options is a huge bummer to retro gamers.

I feel so old when people say they're not familiar with 2600 games!

@JMLRetroRoom 4 года назад

I’m vaguely familiar. I’m 38 but my oldest brother had a 2600. I played Pac-Man, Space Invaders and (Missile Command?) not sure if that was the name, it’s been a while 😅. He didn’t have many games but then we got an NES for Christmas and basically didn’t play the Atari much after that.

Have you talked about the RG350M? And if not will do so in the future?

@mylifeingaming 4 года назад

[Try4ce] Not terribly familiar with it. There are a lot of handheld devices out there.

@4sakend1 4 года назад

@@mylifeingaming understandeable, i'm not certain if it came out late 2019 or early 2020 tbh, though from what i do know it is an updated version of a previous model and considered the best among its retro brethren. Just felt the need to ask, if you review it cool, if not no loss. In any case thank you for the prompt reply and for the content you provide.
