If you love retro games and physical media, you'll want to check Amazon's Black Friday deals on Blaze Entertainment's Evercade hardware and game collections. For a limited time, the Evercade EXP-R handheld and VS-R home console are discounted to $105 (was $130) each. Both systems are bundled with Tomb Raider I-III Collection on cartridge.
These are the first Evercade hardware deals in the US all year. Both systems had been sold out for much of the year until Amazon replenished its inventory in September. Since Amazon is Evercade's only US retail partner, we wouldn't expect these Black Friday deals to remain in stock for long. Blaze Entertainment recently launched $120 editions of the Evercade EXP-R and VS-R that aren't bundled with Tomb Raider, so it wouldn't be surprising if the bundles are gone for good after this sale.
Amazon also has deals on HyperMegaTech Super Pockets. A spin-off handheld series under the Blaze Entertainment umbrella, Super Pockets are themed around specific retro publishers and have a lineup of preloaded games while also supporting the Evercade cartridge library. Four of these Game Boy-esque portables are on sale for $55 (was $70) each, including the popular Capcom Super Pocket with 12 preloaded games and the Neo Geo Super Pocket with 14 games.

The catalog of cartridge deals features some of Evercade's biggest releases, including Legacy of Kain Collection (Blood Omen, Soul Reaver), Tomb Raider Collection 2 (The Last Revelation, Chronicles), Duke Nukem Collection 1 and 2, and Roguecraft DX, an enhanced version of the incredible turn-based roguelike released on Amiga earlier this year. Duke Nukem Collection 1 includes exclusive remastered versions of the first two games and Duke Nukem 3D: Total Meltdown. Duke Nukem Collection 2 comes with Time to Kill, Land of the Babes, and Duke Nukem Advance. Check out the discounted Evercade cartridge collections below:

You can remap inputs on a hardware level in home menu settings or on a per-game basis. You can switch between three aspect ratios: Original, Full Screen, and Pixel Perfect. You can add scanlines to imitate the look of a CRT TV, and there are a handful of bezel options for games that don't fill the screen.

For a pocketable version of the Evercade, Blaze Entertainment's spin-off hardware brand HyperMegaTech has released six different Super Pocket handhelds so far. released a series of handhelds called Super Pocket. These are vertically oriented handhelds with a Game Boy Pocket-inspired form factor. The Super Pocket has a 2.8-inch IPS display with a 320 x 240 aspect ratio. Each model is preloaded with games from a specific publisher and supports the Evercade cartridge library. The latest additions to the lineup, Neo Geo and Data East, launched in July. The Neo Geo Super Pocket has 14 games, including classics like Fatal Fury Special and Metal Slug X. Unsurprisingly, the Capcom Edition has been the most popular in the US. It has preloaded games, including Mega Man, Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, Strider, Final Fight, and 1942. The Taito Edition is also worth checking out if you love Space Invaders, Bubble Bobble, Puzzle Bobble, Space Invaders '91, and more great pick-up-and-play arcade titles.
Blaze Entertainment is launching its third miniature arcade cabinet in the US on November 28. The first two cabinets--Street Fighter and Mega Man--haven't been available to purchase in the US practically since launch last year. If you're interested in a cartridge-based arcade machine, it'd be wise to preorder.
The Evercade Alpha Bartop Arcade has an 8-inch display, two cartridge slots, an excellent arcade stick, and six buttons. Like the VS-R, it supports wired and wireless controllers--the 8BitDo USB Adapter 2 is compatible--but you're limited to two players instead of four. If you want a home arcade cabinet that doesn't take up much space, I'd highly recommend the Evercade Alpha. It's my favorite home arcade machine I own due to its premium build and versatility offered by the cartridge library. The upcoming Taito Bartop Arcade is themed around Bubble Bobble and has 10 preloaded games.

These are vertically oriented handhelds with a Game Boy Pocket-inspired form factor. The Super Pocket has a 2.8-inch IPS display with a 320 x 240 aspect ratio. Each model is preloaded with games from a specific publisher and supports the Evercade cartridge library. The latest additions to the lineup, Neo Geo and Data East, launched in July. The Neo Geo Super Pocket has 14 games, including classics like Fatal Fury Special and Metal Slug X. Unsurprisingly, the Capcom Edition has been the most popular in the US. It has preloaded games, including Mega Man, Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, Strider, Final Fight, and 1942. The Taito Edition is also worth checking out if you love Space Invaders, Bubble Bobble, Puzzle Bobble, Space Invaders '91, and more great pick-up-and-play arcade titles. Blaze Entertainment is launching its third miniature arcade cabinet in the US on November 28. The first two cabinets--Street Fighter and Mega Man--haven't been available to purchase in the US practically since launch last year. If you're interested in a cartridge-based arcade machine, it'd be wise to preorder.The Evercade Alpha Bartop Arcade has an 8-inch display, two cartridge slots, an excellent arcade stick, and six buttons. Like the VS-R, it supports wired and wireless controllers--the 8BitDo USB Adapter 2 is compatible--but you're limited to two players instead of four. If you want a home arcade cabinet that doesn't take up much space, I'd highly recommend the Evercade Alpha. It's my favorite home arcade machine I own due to its premium build and versatility offered by the cartridge library. The upcoming Taito Bartop Arcade is themed around Bubble Bobble and has 10 preloaded games.For more gaming and tech deals, check out GameSpot's Black Friday hub.
