Evercade is expanding its popular Super Pocket line of handheld gaming devices with exciting new editions. Arriving in October 2024, the Atari and Technos editions will offer curated collections of classic games from those iconic platforms. Adding to the excitement, a limited-edition run of 2600 wood-grain Atari Super Pocket handhelds will also be available for purchase soon.

Game preservation is a hotly debated topic, but Evercade provides a legitimate and convenient way to enjoy retro gaming without resorting to potentially illegal emulation or exorbitant secondhand prices. Following the successful launches of the Capcom and Taito editions, these new releases further solidify Evercade's commitment to providing officially licensed retro gaming experiences.

A Retro Revival

With the handheld market largely dominated by retro emulation, Evercade's official releases are a welcome alternative. While some might view the limited-edition 2600 wood-grain units as a marketing gimmick, the appeal of owning a truly unique piece of retro gaming hardware is undeniable (assuming it's genuine wood grain!).

The Evercade Super Pocket's compatibility with existing Evercade cartridges offers significant replayability and portability. Players can easily switch between their handheld and main Evercade console, seamlessly transitioning their retro gaming adventures.
