I really like that the Evercade ecosystem has this added value of being interchangeable. I've been following the releases and this is the first time I'm considering actually buying a device, just to dip my toe into the Evercade waters.
I own the original Evercade, the EXP, the pre-order limited edition (which got stolen off a truck and had to be remade), and the Versus. Is it for me? Yes.
Everything in this review is accurate. I have Evercade VS, EXP and OG handhelds. I still bought both the super pockets because the battery lasts WAY longer than the EXP and it actually fits into any pocket to carry around whilst traveling. Also because my EXP was expensive and now I can save it and use the pockets day to day out and about! It’s also amazing value at €59,99. For me, a no brainer for anyone who doesn’t own an Evercade and likes retro gaming. But also different enough to those who do have one!
As someone who owns an Evercade EXP and has a VS on Pre-Order, and is obviously invested in that entire ecosystem, it's still tempting to get a 'Pocket' as a throw around, cheaper device, to sling in a bag. Yes the EXP serves the exact same purpose, but there's something about that device that I worry about breaking or damaging, especially as mine is a black edition. And because the 'save progress' saves into the cartridge, you can play on one, and just move between devices. On the other hand, if you don't have any Evercade device yet, I would probably recommend the EXP as it's ultimately a better device.
Nope. Operation Wolf used a light gun. It was mounted to the panel but it was a light gun. That's why the screen flashed. However, Operation Thunderbolt used a positional gun like Terminator 2. 😉
A link cable for multiplayer would have been the cherry on top for these devices. I would love to see a firmware update that could add this if even possible.
To make a cartridge based console at this price-point is ready commendable. Of course it’s made to encourage more people into the Evercadecollectors community. But that’s not a bad thing. Rom based Chinese handhelds are ten a penny.
I bought a couple of these and they're an absolute hit - although not necessarily in the way I expected. The collectability of the cartridges is addictive and the Evercade community is genuinely warm and supportive. The device itself is an absolute steal at £50 and worth the built-in games alone.
I have an EXP and I'm going to order this one as well. Like you and others are saying it'll make for a great grab and go player and I already have plenty of game for it. I can also hand this off to my kids without worrying too much about it since it comes in at a more affordable price.
Nintendo please take note, A modern Gameboy with a few preloaded games and a cartridge slot for original Gameboy and Gameboy color carts would sellout the moment it was released
@@RetroDodo I went for the Taito Edition, something different for me as I've played mostly capcom stuff growing up...even though the yellow unit looks sick! Also picked up Full Void to support the developers and the Delphine Collection. I actually never liked the Evercade Brand and their Hardware aesthetics just didn't do it for me. So the Super Pocket is perfect, and now I can experience the Evercade Carts. I am super pleased that Indie developers who want their game on a Cartridge can now do it, just like FULL VOID.
Great review, I think it really nails all the aspects of this device and helps a lot make the decision to buy it or not. I don't have any Evercade device, but I was pretty interested in this one. The single player only for me is a deal breaker though, considering that I'm sure it wouldn't have been too difficult to implement a connection with a simple USB-C cable. And, as you say, it would have been a fantastic throwback to multiplayer on the Game Boy.
My only two problems with the Super Pocket, and what I've seen but not personally experienced in person myself, are the increased price due to the official branding from Capcom & Taito (them and Namco being why all of these Pac-man/Street Fighter/etc plug-and-play consoles and mini-arcade-cabinets cost four times as much as they should), and the d-pad. I like + shaped d-pads, I like some circle pads, but a weak + shape on a circle is possibly the only thing worse than the original Xbox 360's d-pad.
@@lanceman24 Okay, cool but normal people will base its value on what else is available on the market and $50 devices can play tens of thousands of games up to PS1 on them. Buying a device for $59 that can only play 12-20 games is redundant.
@@Bendilin This thing plays up to PS1, there are a couple on a couple of Evercade carts already and they play fine on this. What will define how these are regarded is not what they can't do but the simplicity and aesthetic design and durability. As long as they can go in a pocket and take a few bumps and the buttons don't wear out in five minutes the older retro gamer like me will be very happy with them. I can't be arsed with complex retro boxes when my computer can emulate a thousand times better, if I wanted to play AAA games on the go I'd get something like a Steam Deck and just take my PC library on the go. There is also nothing from the Shenzhen backroom solderers' product ranges that are as stylish.
If you have an EXP, there is little point in getting the Capcom version of the Super Pocket as the EXP has all the games the Super Pocket has and then some. I will be getting the Taito Super Pocket despite already owning the EXP. I love the form factor on the Super Pocket and I like the games.
I already have the Anbernic RG351V. I would like to know if it can start from standby, fast. Looking for something that I can take out quickly rather than for a session - like a game & watch
These devices are a good entry level for people who might not want to spend the full amount on an EXP or VS, also a great gift that you don't have to spend more money on.
If you want to use a uSD card with device… you did not understand the philosophy of these handhelds 😅 It’s a “nostalgia oriented” handheld, meant to be used with physical licensed cartridges Maybe an Everdrive will appear at some time in the future and you will then be able to use a uSD but in my humble opinion, it would kill the fun of collecting
@@stevenmarie7314 not saying I don't understand the concept of this but remember when anbernic device (I think it was K101) had the option to use gba cartridge and use sd card? I like to have options lol
@@Sung_Jam it was not even Anbernic yet at the time, it was Revo but yeah I see what you mean. That just confirm that everybody is different and it's cool that there is products for each. In fact, I sold my Revo K101 because as I had the cartridges and an IPS modded GBA... the K101 ended up on a shelf collecting dust...
it is a neat concept. it just sucks that 7 games made 30 years ago are $20 on an evercade cartridge. I do understand its to be official but its a tough ask for a newcomer thats not a collector to buy something so old
My brother received both of his yesterday. The Capcom version has a lot of flecks of dust particles under the screen. Build quality is very good, but dust under the screen (which scratches incredibly easily) is an issue.
I will wonder if link functionality would be possible in the future. We technically do not know how the USB-C port is set up until someone does a tear down. But it could in theory be set up to eventually allow for that. Unless they have specifically said this will not be the case, but I don't know that the EXP even supports multiplayer. (Ironically the EULA for the Super Pocket mentions basically not abusing chat or other users of the device, which generally I would think would apply if the device had well multiplayer or internet capabilities.) I would assume this might exist down the road for both, as the VS and plenty of Evercade games do support multiplayer. (Would have loved a limited edition EXP and VS though but only found out about the Evercade this year, I hate when black is a limited color. I did order the Duke Nukem VS though, that makes up for the VS a bit as it's actually pretty cool even if it's not black. Here's hoping EXP gets some cool limited scheme eventually. And yes I did get the transparent Super Pockets)
I can honestly say that my Evercade EXP is one of the worst handhelds that I own - very uncomfortable to hold with sharp edges, it overheats soon after switching on and the speakers are weak with tiny sound. If this new handheld is worse than the EXP then I am staying clear of it.
The evercade exp made some good improvements over the original evercade but does have it's own issues. I wouldn't say it overheats but does get very warm. The dpad is actually worse than the original and it's not as comfortable to hold. On the plus side you get extra built in games, a better screen, wifi, and tate mode.
Pretty good review! I saw the Capcom version at our local electronic store for 29€ I think I get it tomorrow and aim for the Duke Nukem and Gremlin modul. Perfect machine for the office lol
This handheld console is well worth its $£€60.00. No play with others?? No an issue. Firmware update?? I send a question, just wait for an answer. Vertical SHMUPs little screen?? yup, could be an issue for some (the EXP is perfect for that). Some games not really adapted for "classic" game consoles?? If it's 1 or 2 two games, not an issue. So, overall, this is a great entry point to the Evercade system. 9/10
I think it's a cool little handheld gaming system and the price is nice but I think spending the extra money for the exp is a better value in the long run if you start collecting more games
The issue with the EXP is it takes ages charge, especially if you use any charger than the one it comes with, and then the battery is god awful. Like, the worst handheld battery I’ve ever experienced. These Pocket however charge fast and last a good time.
This is not bad. I was and may still send my Game and watch off to put all nes and gb Megaman titles on it, And I was going yo use these exact colors 😍. Well done Hyper Mega rech, Awesome review.
Ur not doing the device any favors by showing the LCD on the RG353v and then this LCD right after. It looks rough. I think the device should be $20 cheaper. And that might encourage people to buy more cartridges. That being said this is a very niche device. So theyre trying to maximize profits.
Everything so far yes! I'm not sure about the newly announced Giga Carts though, but I would assume that they'll work with it too. The only thing to consider is that any games with a 16:9 aspect ratio are going to be letterboxed on this device due to its 4:3 display.
Thanks for your honest review, especially in the "issues and problems" and "Evercade Competition" section. If they had a Super Pocket that had the Gameboy DMG color scheme, bigger screen and built in Gameboy games such as homebrews or Tetris I am all in on this production. For me the EXP and VS satisfy all my Evercade needs.
The colors are branding of the companies represented.... these games will never be released on the evercade anyhow, so this is the only way to get them.
Do you like a dpad with a mushy middle that allows you to hit random directions all at once, causing you to move in the wrong direction or fail to move at all? Do you like shoulder buttons that are nearly unusable due to poor placement? Then by all means, buy it.
I feel like they can compete with MyArcade. They actually have a better product. They need to be in stores. I actually don’t think the exp was a good idea. The idea that the firmware was buggy on the original console is a problem. Even though, it’s ok to pay publishers for their past games. I think the format sucks. Yes, the games are cheap considering today’s games but the collections on the cart are lacking. We really need a iTunes format for older games. The original system is nothing more than an emulator just like the other two. AtGames had the same thing called the Sega Portable with a SD card instead of the cartridge. Companies like Capcom and Taito wouldn’t even allow Evercade to print the cartridges. The original system was about $75 and different themes so it’s ok.
Remember when Blaze tried that with their Gamegadget? That console was supposed to be supported by the iTunes of gaming but in the end only had about 15 Megadrive titles on it.
I'd have liked if the games weren't even technically built in, but instead just came with an Evercade cartridge with the games on it. In terms of production, they would have not needed to have as much or any on board from storage as it would migrate to the cart, and they wouldn't need to mould a dust cover, so I think that wouldn't have even increased the price of the unit that much. But then as you collect these, you can keep the handheld on display but keep playing the games on your favorite color Super Pocket, or an Evercade. But I would imagine the licensing for "installable/moveable software that can run on multiple devices" is vastly more expensive than "built in software only on the copyright holder's branded device."
First time seeing that a few weeks back, thought it was going too be 1 of those cheap Chinese handheld with 8 nes games and Bootleg fillers .. I definitely would buy it for the Evercade feature and it very interesting how HD the games look
I never understood the concept of the cheap Chinese Emulator handhelds. They're underpowered with weird or copy and paste designs. But the major issue is there lack of power, since they built from old recycled phones. Your phone is way ahead in terms of power, connect a controller and a gamepad and your set. Then you have the Switch and the Steam Deck which makes these even more useless. But the Super Pocket is nice with its Evercade cart support and official licence, a nice novelty to anyone's collection. I wish it had 6 Buttons with a landscape design.
Bonjour visiblement étant seulement intéressé par 2 ou 3 jeux evercade ça peut être un bon achat pour un petit prix étant donné que les jeux evercade sont eux même pas trop cher ( 20 euros environ) voilà mais je réfléchis à un console petite d’émulation certes pas très légal A réfléchir et merci pour cette découverte 😊
I don’t understand why they still didn’t use a 6-button layout… Street Fighter is their cover game!!! Why wouldn’t they put 6 buttons at least on the capcom one???
Overpriced garbage, like everything from evercade. For $40 you can get Anbernic RG35XX with 3.5" ips screen, hdmi, decent build quality and hardware powerful enough to emulate ps1 library.
If you decide to get this Super Pocket instead of a rom-based system, you're only supporting the people who own the licenses now. It's preposterous to think you're helping out the original devs who poured hours of work into the code. With most of these companies, devs didn't get residuals, royalties, or anything like that. Do you think Taito or Capcom are going to track down Japanese devs who made an hourly wage and didn't own their work to give them royalty checks? No. It's very suspicious of this channel to assume that they would. The ONLY people being "supported" are Capcom, Taito, and Blaze. Maybe some lawyers. Downloading a rom doesn't denigrate the previous work by devs any more than buying a used game would. I'm also unsubscribing. I don't trust this channel any longer.
That's all very true with the retro games and you have a lot of good points, however the reason I stated you would be helping the developers is because Evercade have a lot of cartridges dedicated to indie games where small developers and studios would see a return on sales. I hope that clarifies what I was trying to say! - Rob
@@Jbrodack I'd rather buy games made by indie devs on Steam. Much cheaper and easier. All the Super Pocket is is a retro cash grab by Taito and Capcom and if you don't see that, I got nothing for you.
Hoping for SEGA!
My thoughts exactly.
YESSSSSSSS
Sega Saturn and Dreamcast version.
Or a Neo Geo one. Would love to see a metal slug collection on a cart.

You're paying for the ability to play these games "legally".
are these hackeable?
I'd have liked if the games weren't even technically built in, but instead just came with an Evercade cartridge with the games on it.
In terms of production, they would have not needed to have as much or any on board from storage as it would migrate to the cart, and they wouldn't need to mould a dust cover, so I think that wouldn't have even increased the price of the unit that much.
But then as you collect these, you can keep the handheld on display but keep playing the games on your favorite color Super Pocket, or an Evercade.
But I would imagine the licensing for "installable/moveable software that can run on multiple devices" is vastly more expensive than "built in software only on the copyright holder's branded device."
First time seeing that a few weeks back, thought it was going too be 1 of those cheap Chinese handheld with 8 nes games and Bootleg fillers .. I definitely would buy it for the Evercade feature and it very interesting how HD the games look
Very cool i like it.
Thanks for stopping by!
Downloading a 40 year old game of the internet isn't moral gray area.
Just asking what happened to the other guy on here
You know what, for £50 that’s a banging deal. Rob, this is the 2nd thing you’ve convinced me to buy…stop it.
Man name of the game at 13:47?
Full Void
Can I use the card game ? Anyone?
I never understood the concept of the cheap Chinese Emulator handhelds. They're underpowered with weird or copy and paste designs. But the major issue is there lack of power, since they built from old recycled phones. Your phone is way ahead in terms of power, connect a controller and a gamepad and your set. Then you have the Switch and the Steam Deck which makes these even more useless. But the Super Pocket is nice with its Evercade cart support and official licence, a nice novelty to anyone's collection. I wish it had 6 Buttons with a landscape design.
Bonjour visiblement étant seulement intéressé par 2 ou 3 jeux evercade ça peut être un bon achat pour un petit prix étant donné que les jeux evercade sont eux même pas trop cher ( 20 euros environ) voilà mais je réfléchis à un console petite d’émulation certes pas très légal
A réfléchir et merci pour cette découverte 😊
Is there any SD card slot?
Ño.
The EXP is ugly, that's the point 😝
What happened to Brandon
He was fired from Retro Dodo
I don’t understand why they still didn’t use a 6-button layout… Street Fighter is their cover game!!! Why wouldn’t they put 6 buttons at least on the capcom one???
The mint green on the taito is super ugly though.
👍👍
Robbbbbbbbbbbbb
Just buy a Miyoo Mini+
Noone plays retro games multiplayer.
Display looks very bad!
Overpriced garbage, like everything from evercade. For $40 you can get Anbernic RG35XX with 3.5" ips screen, hdmi, decent build quality and hardware powerful enough to emulate ps1 library.
The ambernic I am waiting on was 95 dollars.
Why are you calling it garbage it hasn't even come out and to it looks fun
@klsts86 It's garbage for the price they asking. You can get a device better than this in every aspect, but 30% cheaper.
@@antonj182yeah you can get unlicensed Chinese garbage for cheaper
@@JbrodackSurely it's better to get "American" Capcom-labeled garbage more expensively
Capcom edition is looking too childish with these oversaturated colors🤔
This video should come with a warning! "Irritating child's voice followed by disturbing video imagery when the person is revealed".
Jeez somebody’s cranky 😂

Ur mom usually sucks pizza delivery guys off without a warning too so yeah, go figure...
If you decide to get this Super Pocket instead of a rom-based system, you're only supporting the people who own the licenses now. It's preposterous to think you're helping out the original devs who poured hours of work into the code. With most of these companies, devs didn't get residuals, royalties, or anything like that. Do you think Taito or Capcom are going to track down Japanese devs who made an hourly wage and didn't own their work to give them royalty checks? No. It's very suspicious of this channel to assume that they would.
The ONLY people being "supported" are Capcom, Taito, and Blaze. Maybe some lawyers. Downloading a rom doesn't denigrate the previous work by devs any more than buying a used game would. I'm also unsubscribing. I don't trust this channel any longer.
That's all very true with the retro games and you have a lot of good points, however the reason I stated you would be helping the developers is because Evercade have a lot of cartridges dedicated to indie games where small developers and studios would see a return on sales.
I hope that clarifies what I was trying to say!

@@RetroDodo While Evercade/Blaze indeed does that, not in the case with these items since no indy dev has anything featured on either handheld.
@@havencirclebut by buying the super pocket you can then get other carts which support the original devs.
@@Jbrodack I'd rather buy games made by indie devs on Steam. Much cheaper and easier. All the Super Pocket is is a retro cash grab by Taito and Capcom and if you don't see that, I got nothing for you.
It's pronounced e-xp,for Christ sakes.
Looks disgusting
biased review. Free handhelds in exchange for good review
You must be new here.
It looks interesting
Hope someone actually jailbreaks it in the future
