New retro-inspired handheld, Evercade, Launches first trailer

Evercade, the upcoming handheld console aimed at retro gamers, have unveiled their first trailer for the system.

Evercade is described as “is a brand new handheld console with unique multi-game retro cartridges from leading games publishers and console platforms”

The handheld can also be played on a TV via HDMI cable and doesn’t require an internet connection.

Cartridges confirmed for the system so far, include collections from Data East, Atari, Namco, Interplay and retro-inspired games from Mega Cat Studios

Though the list is quite impressive – I’m sure that many hardcore retro gamers will already have methods of playing these games on the go – Namco have been creating retro-collections for handhelds in the form of their Namco Museum since the Game Boy Advance. It would be nice to see collections of retro games not traditionally seen on handhelds: Perhaps a Best of ZX Spectrum, Intellivision Classics, or the Mastertronic Collection!

The Evercade is available from Q4 2019 for £59.99 / €69.99 / $79.99, and cartridges will be available at £14.99 / €17.99 / $19.99.
