Tetris would be the perfect collab for this line of Evercades: a Super Pocket with several built in versions of Tetris... huge market tor that, even with the lamentable "one player only" constraint.

This is becoming a worrying trend. First it was, if you want the Capcom Collection you'll need to buy an EXP. Then the first two Super Pockets came out, locking Capcom & Taito games to hardware. Last month there was the Alphas and if you want to play SF Alpha or the Mega Man arcade games you'll need to buy both. Now we have two more Super Pockets essentially replacing Legacy Evercade Carts. This isn't really the eco system I initially signed up for when I first picked up an OG Handheld Evercade. I'm a simple man and all I want is for the games to be available on carts for around the £20 mark. I'm happy for people who are excited for these two new Super Pockets and the Special Atari Edition one but it's all getting a bit cash grabby for my liking. Sorry for being a bit down on this but the more I think about it, the more I don't like the direction Blaze/HyperMega Tech are heading. If I wanted to keep buying different hardware for different games, I'd be filling my house with Arcade 1UP cabinets ;-) Keep up the awesome work Steve!

@@jayme69 Jamie I always love to hear your thoughts, you are no debby downer 😉 I totally see where you are coming from. I have always taken it that the super pockets are just for games they can't licence on a cart so it's the only way to get it to us. Its a bit different this time as they are legacy carts but I guess the same rules apply. This is alot to do with these annoying companies just not liking their games on carts or if they do they can only be handheld which makes me laugh thet the Namco work on the arcade cabinet cos that's more or less a console with a built in monitor. But what ya gonna do. But it is frustrating. I do love the game boy aesthetics of the super pocket mind so I am a bit weak for the design. I would say I the atari defence that all the games included would come to the same price of about 3 or 4 carts so the price isn't any different if you got the carts separate. I don't have much defence for the Technos one though, but I know some love double dragon. I am not one of those people 🤣 as long as we still get carts I'll be happy. If all the companies decide they don't want their games on cart then we are screwed 🤣 I don't want 50 super pockets and I'd rather play on my big telly anyway. It's better for our old eyes init. But you do make very valid points. Please never stop my good friend 😁

I think it’s funny Blaze rejected Double Dragon 1 arcade on the arcade cart because the game has so much slowdown, but it’s good enough for a Super Pocket! 😄 I’m a dedicated tv-gamer, so these handhelds just aren’t for me.

@@VEGANVANIA the atari handheld is defo good if you just want atari games. Atari doesn't rate as high for me, so I'd need the machine to do something else.
