And in Double Dragon II, I had to press the B button - which is located to the right of A - to kick left, while A punched right. With Top Racer for example, none of the game’s four controller configurations fully corresponded to the proper inputs on the hardware. In fact, the only serious frustration I encountered while gaming on the Evercade for this review was the way in which it bungled the control schemes for some titles.
There’s a sheet of glossy plastic protecting the 4.3-inch LCD display and the entire face of the device, while the rest of the body is clad in a matte plastic shell that wouldn’t have felt out of place on an original Game Boy. Somewhere between a PSP and PS Vita in terms of size, but thicker than both, the Evercade isn’t exactly the most slender or attractive portable system. These are new, crowdfunded games that have actually been released on Sega Genesis cartridges, as well as modern platforms, like the Nintendo Switch. Blaze Entertainment says at least three more will drop by the third quarter of the year: two Atari Lynx collections, as well as one dual-game pack featuring Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood. If I was buying an Evercade today, I’d be somewhat worried about the number of cartridge releases I can expect going forward.
Games are grouped in collections by publisher, which is a logical way of organizing things. Each cart features anywhere from 6 to 20 games, but all cartridges retail for the same $20/£15. Including the ones that ship with the system, there’s a total of 10 cartridges available at launch from a range of publishers, including Data East and Technos, as well as indie outfits like Piko Interactive and Mega Cat Studios.
