Do you want to see more Evercade Content on this channel? Let me know below! Hope you enjoyed my "6 months later" Review of this product. What do you think of the Evercade systems?
Hey PDubs, I have an awesome suggestion for your next live stream. What’s with all the current price slashes on arcade 1up cabinets lately.? Everything seems to be up for sale lately. Should we expect big things in 2023 with some new games, are they clearing inventory, are the price of hardware/software dropping, or do they realize their current prices aren’t moving products. Just odd that pretty much everything from Spring 2022 and before is on sale. Just a thought
@@stupidfathobbit4262 MichaelB and Console Kits have done that same stream topic ad nauseum many times it's pretty much that time of year to clear out the old inventory and make room for all the new cabs coming out. Plus due to their higher costs we are seeing more sales as people don't want to pay full price
@@PDubsArcadeLoft ok just feels like something is up in 1up world. Just saw that Tron and Xmen have crazy sales up today which haven’t been the case especially with those two plus games like KI dropping tremendously plus Ridge Racer for $400. Plus all their rehash 2022 games are reasonably priced. To think the covid prices were so high it’s refreshing to see things be more reasonable for the community just thought it would make for a good topic but yeah don’t want to sound redundant if other streamers covered the same topic recently. Keep up the good work.
This review is a masterpiece. It’s a symphony of well chosen words and well edited clips. I watched it while eating a partially melted Twix and lukewarm Coke Zero. It changed my life.
I love the packaged cartridges! To me the current generation is kinda missing out on that with everything being online. I have my Atari 2600 from 34 years ago with the original cartridges and they still work! Thanks PDubs! A very refreshing review.
I confess I thought that Evercade would not last long but here we are three generations later. I think it is, as you mention, that they tapped into the collectors market rather than the general retro gamer one. Somehow though I was always still tempted but in the end never pulled the trigger and it is the carts that put me off each time. Not the actual physical media but that each is highly curated by means of what they can license rather than the quality of the games. Something like the Retroid Pocket 3+ might not hit the nostalgia factor for me as much as an Evercade would but at the same time it can also do one hell of a lot more.
Love the Evercade and will never regret having it. Funny you drop a video on it and I was just thinking about how I need to spend more time with it. Now’s the time!
This is the first video of yours I’ve watched, and I must say your presentation is first rate. Your style is unhurried, goes into great detail and has no waffle. I’m looking forward to catching up on your other uploads and have just subscribed. Keep up the brilliant work!
Looks like a great system that's legal with all licensed games and good quality. Perfect for collecting and having a console with games that is nostalgic.
Great video :). For me personally I think its an absolutely fantastic system. Its pretty much everything I've wanted to see happen for a Long time. A modern day retro console that uses cartridges. I've always been a huge advocate for physical media. I also love the fact this system focuses on putting out indie and homebrew games. Along with some unreleased games getting released and a few fan translation games. The games that sold me on this system was The Oliver twins and the codemasters collection. This will be the first and only video game system I will be going full set with. Because its financially manageable. It has quality software. And its a nice alternate to the main 3 hardware company's.
It's worth mentioning that you can use other controllers with the VS system, if you don't like the ones that came with it. Personally I wish we could use a controller that also offered track ball and spinner support
We arrived late to the evercade scene but made up for it by getting the entire library, 3 of the handhelds for the family and the VS system. We love it, period. The perfect way for the kids to grow up learning about the groups that made games, and enjoying all the collections vs whatever 1 system says you can play. 10/10 for the video, 10/10 for the system
Love the Evercade VS and you described my situation to a "T". I bought the VS many months ago, played it a few times, updated the fw, etc. but never made a video of it for the same reason. One thing I didn't know about was the game of the month, that is a nice addition. I just didn't make the time to play the many cartridges I bought for it. I've played games on about 4 carts at this point and own about 15 or more. They all played well and were fun, one of my goals before the end of this year is to get through more than half of the carts lol. As always, thank you for the great review PDubs!
I just pulled the trigger on one online. I found a premium package with two controllers, two arcade games cartridges and a set of commemorative evercade pins from a UK site on super sale for 114$! I had been watching videos nightly about this thing and starting to get sad that I probably wouldn't be able to afford it any time soon. Living paycheck to paycheck, it just seemed like a stretch, but for the nostalgic enjoyment I'll get, I made it happen. I researched handhelds etc, and I'm not tech savvy enough to download roms etc all the time. I agree, I like that I'm paying for something legal, and that I get physical cartridges and full color manuals like when I was a kid. I wasn't allowed to have video games as a kid really, but I did grow up playing Atari, then NES and I had a commodore 64 handme down from my aunt.. The last game systems I was at all "proficient" at were genesis and a little bit of snes. This will allow me to play alot of what I knew and to experience alot of those things I only got to salivate over in the Sears wishbook like the Atari Lynx. I was a little nervous clicking on your video cause I was hoping you wouldn't make me sad or feel bad at all about my purchase since I only just ordered it an hour ago, but it was a great video, and only reinforced my enthusiasm. I'm wicked excited. I don't play video games as an adult really, and I almost thank my parents restrictions for that, but its nice to feel like a kid again for a minute here and there, and since this is multiplayer I can share it with my fiancee and bring it out at parties etc. Thanks for not bursting my bubble.
Great Video!! I to am just like you and have the Founders Edition and only played it the when it first launched and have had no time, but I think the system and games are great just wished their was more hours in the day for sure. I would encourage you to create more content on the Evercade and maybe this will trigger a remider for us all to play. Have a great day!!
CONFESSION: I ordered my VS Limited Edition last year and only opened it about 2 weeks ago. To this day, I haven't played it after the first time I turned it on. Looks nice on my shelf, though... still waiting for some A-list titles to make it worth playing. And yes, I have 6 boxes still plastic-wrapped on my shelf... guess I'm not the only one!
Absolutely understand your regret about not having enough time to play the games you have! I was like that when I was working BUT I have now just RETIRED so this seems like the ideal opportunity to pick up an Evercade (though conflicted over which version)! Thanks for a great video. 👍
Love the review. I have been on the fence with this system. I will look at the EXP since I do not have the handheld. Please do more content for Evercade
I'm from the UK when I heard that the Amiga is joining the Evercade that will bring back the good old days the Amiga had lots of good games and good programers thinking of getting one witch one do you reckon console or handheld witch is best.
I think the newest evercade is cool with the ability to play in Tate mode/vertical. They just need to get some good shmup collections like Toaplan/Raizing/Psikyo/Cave….etc
Hey PDubs watch all your content and love the super dudes ;) I’m a big arcade cab guy but just got into the evercade and love it. Would love to see more content from you on this.
PDubs, Man, if the Evercade came out during the Sega Genesis era, I would've had an Evercade instead of a Genesis, hands down. Playing arcade games at home? Always a dream! :) Heck, even if they could've gotten this out during the beginning of the Playstation era, I would've gotten one back then. Evercade still looks like a great system to play these games on, so I'm glad there here for those who'd like a cost effective alternative. vgv
Hi pdubs great review I actually really love evercade more lately do you there new releases one cartridge is an absolute must is piko 2 collection the most perfect game list also p dubs more coverage of evercade content on your channel I would love it and game cartridge reviews have a great day
I don't regret buying the VS, however I do wish Blaze would update the button mapping and allow different profiles for the one controller so I could set it up how I want it for each game. The button mapping is very inconsistent, even for similar games on the one cartridge. The button mapping actually stops me using the VS as much as I otherwise would and makes me less enthusiastic about buying more carts.
I have the Evercade handheld but the Vs. never really appealed to me. I mostly just got it to play Atari Lynx games because that system was a big part of my teenage years. Admittedly, I don't play it much so I don't really feel any compulsion to go for an upgrade at any point soon.
Great video Pdubs as usual. You did a video a little while back ago about the Super Console x showing how it worked on the Atgames Legends Ultimate arcade machine. I got that & I love it. Kinhank just came out with a new one selling on Amazon. Super Console X3 Plus with 114,000 games. Do you think this one would also work on the Legends Arcade? I won’t get it to use on the tv but I would absolutely get it if it worked on the Arcade machine. Thanks Pdubs!!
Great video. I would love to see more Exercade content. Do you have the link to preorder the exp? I can’t tell if that is the original console on Amazon or the new one.
While I was waiting for a ps5 I got an Evercade(handheld) with dizzy, and then I collected all the carts and got the VS when it came out, and I still haven't got a ps5 and now I don't even think about getting one. I have a ps4 for most modern(ish) games but beyond that, I'd rather play on the Evercade, Or use my ps3 to play ps2 and ps1 games, and I'm happy with my lot lol.
Pdubs, you need to toss that little box into your bag and break it out in Chicago when you and the rest of the DubUps crew are chilling out during the upcoming trip!
Is that the game that starts 9:43? I was thinking the same, it looks class. I've got all the carts but much like mentioned in the vid I've not had time to play them all
I think that you lose the sense of “value” when you download games for free to use on an emulator. It also just doesn’t seem right or fair to the original creators. I’m not preaching, but there IS something nostalgic & special about ordering (& paying) for a collectable cartridge based game with a case & colour manual even in 2023! 😁
If you download the latest firmware does it include the previous games from the older firmware ? Or do you need to do each update individually ? I welcome evercade content
Prices vary depending on what bundle you pick. Just go to Amazon and type Evercade VS in the search bar and pick the bundle you like. Could be anywhere from 100-200 depending on how many controllers and games you want included in the bundle
So each time it updated you get new game but do that game stay on your console? If so, do you see it run out of storage space? But if you bought this later on and now the new version is 2.15 so how do you get version 2.10 free games? Do all those free games included on version 2.15 if you are a new member?
The nice thing is, it looks like it stays on your system until you donwload the newest FW so if you're not done playing the title, you can finish it up before updating to the next month's game!
6:20 Full Screen: Why You Would! If you have an old 4:3 display or CRT TV the picture gets squished unless you enable Full Screen mode. (Switch lacks this feature making it terrible for playing old games on CRT TVs)
well... I much older than you so I owned many different systems... This "new" system is a product for a niche market : collectors. Sure it's cool, but in a world literally burning right now, with the exhaustion of resources , more physical product like this is not reasonable, at least for me. Sure, it's cool for all the indie games and some pretty obscure games but you won't have "big" game son this system (like capcom, Sega or Nintendo...). As usual, there is already a flashcard for this system : running Retroarch with it is pretty bad, because the system is not powerful enough.... Apart from collecting plastic boxes , I don't see the point of this system. Well done to Evercade to be enough confident to launch a new system in this period of time (Ouya tried also... with a big failure in the end...). I had the opportunity to test this system at friend's house : it's cool to show your kids , "what daddy used to play when he was a kid..."... but that's about it.
@@PDubsArcadeLoft Didn't realise you was a member of the Evercade Fans Hub. Glad you liked me posting your vid there 🤩🤩🕹🕹🎯 I've also ordered the Dragon's Lair Overhaul Red Edition like yourself 😀😀 Now subbed my friend 😀😀🕹🕹🎯
@@PDubsArcadeLoft Aye, didn't even know this exists until local gaming store posted preorder for the new black version consoles few days ago. Now i'm having an itch to get it since it's more then just another "pie with emulator" in a plastic box,... They are actually selling old games (which is amazing) and you can rather collect them as physical copies on cartridges. I actually buy retail copies for my PS5 as I rather enjoy having my favorite games in physical functional copy (I just hope they don't stop doing that for future consoles, downloading it digitally just feels like I'm basically buying a bag of air from untouched nature). And it's very good to actually be able to play the games of the old in their original native format so that you can compare and see how games today and how games of the past worked and it's also a good compass for the developers to not loose their touch. All in all I'm impressed by this actual retro console.
This is for fathers of gamers to give to there kid for christmas so there kids can learn about real gaming they will ask for games for birthday and christmas and later they will get paper rounds to get money to buy more games outside of birthdays and christmas like real gamers did back in more civilized times
A waste of money, carts are not cheap, slow in coming out. Get 1000's on a retro console for less, or can you, do your own system as roms are easy to find.
Only heard of the Evercade name in passing. Didn't know exactly what it was. After watching this video, I feel an itch I may have to scratch. Thanks Dubs!

I didn't expect to shed a tear.
"Makes you remember what it was like being a kid again"...
Great review. Nostalgic. Touching.
Thank you.

Thank you my friend, always appreciate your support!
Unfortunately Evercade cartridges are made with NAND flash and very unlikely to last for 34 years. You can look up NAND vs MASK ROMS
Love the Evercade. I would enjoy more of this content. Thanks for posting.
Thanks Dude!

Thanks Jon! We need to quit RUclips so we can play lol
@PDubs Arcade Loft Amen to that lol!
I love to see some company in the U.S. to do something similar to the evercade but also sell them in stores not just online
I have every cart and (like you) wish I could spend more time with the system. Would love to see more evercade stuff on the channel!
Thanks my brother!
Perfect about collecting and not downloading , also having the physical copy with the superb artwork , keeps me excited ! great you tube Video !

Nice review I'm awaiting the exp as my first evercade .
Me too. I have it pre-ordered and hope it ships on December 15th.
I'm excited to buy the Commodore 64 collection. I played that system more than anything else as a kid. I'd love to see some of the old RPGs come out.

It's a nice travel vacation console I love that it can play snk & capcom fighting games I hope they continue to put out games from all retro consoles❤
I hope so too!
Love the review. I have been on the fence with this system. I will look at the EXP since I do not have the handheld.
Please do more content for Evercade
Thanks Shannon!
I'm from the UK when I heard that the Amiga is joining the Evercade that will bring back the good old days the Amiga had lots of good games and good programers thinking of getting one witch one do you reckon console or handheld witch is best.
I think the newest evercade is cool with the ability to play in Tate mode/vertical. They just need to get some good shmup collections like Toaplan/Raizing/Psikyo/Cave….etc
The new handheld does Tate mode so it makes sense they would add games like that
@@PDubsArcadeLoft yeah #1 reason to purchase the new handheld. Tate mode on a handheld is a rare gem!

I don't regret buying the VS, however I do wish Blaze would update the button mapping and allow different profiles for the one controller so I could set it up how I want it for each game. The button mapping is very inconsistent, even for similar games on the one cartridge. The button mapping actually stops me using the VS as much as I otherwise would and makes me less enthusiastic about buying more carts.
Thanks man, great feedback!
Shovelware games. One or two are ok but it’s predominantly like paying for an old shareware library.
I have the Evercade handheld but the Vs. never really appealed to me. I mostly just got it to play Atari Lynx games because that system was a big part of my teenage years. Admittedly, I don't play it much so I don't really feel any compulsion to go for an upgrade at any point soon.
Thanks Scott appreciate the feedback
I’m gonna be getting this as well as the EXP handheld. Just have to figure out which carts I want at first.
Good times!
Had my VS since release and use it more than my PS5
Wow! That’s nice to hear
Great video Pdubs as usual. You did a video a little while back ago about the Super Console x showing how it worked on the Atgames Legends Ultimate arcade machine. I got that & I love it.

Follow the links on their main website
Great job on the review 👏
Thanks you my friend!

Good logic here thanks dude!
I got mass of games on steam for pc that I even had touched yet plus the ps console stuff.... I am confused..
same here is ok just play when you have the time
Agreed
I play my evercade vs often and think it plays great in my switch deck. Best value for your home arcade buck
Playing it on an Arcade1up via the switch deck very nice
Pdubs, you need to toss that little box into your bag and break it out in Chicago when you and the rest of the DubUps crew are chilling out during the upcoming trip!
Lol great idea
Definitely wouldn’t mind more Evercade content.
I've been ignoring the Evercade, but now that Duke Nukem is coming out onto the system I might have to change my mind.
Duke Nukem was a win
If they do a sega cd collection and includes Snatcher I’d purchase in an instant
i loved the Sega CD growing up
the last game you showed , wich cartridge whas that?
Is that the game that starts 9:43? I was thinking the same, it looks class. I've got all the carts but much like mentioned in the vid I've not had time to play them all
I think that you lose the sense of “value” when you download games for free to use on an emulator. It also just doesn’t seem right or fair to the original creators.
I’m not preaching, but there IS something nostalgic & special about ordering (& paying) for a collectable cartridge based game with a case & colour manual even in 2023! 😁
Yes sir the Nostalgia of collecting clam shells and carts and booklets is evercade target market
The handheld is ideal…just too small a screen size, would have been great if it were switch sized
That would've been nice
I'm thinking about getting an evercade I've been putting it off for a while now
I like it, just wish I had more time to play it
@@PDubsArcadeLoft Right!! Time does play a major role too
Nice screen. Which is it?
Cheaper to get the Kinhank with the games already preloaded. Much cheaper and the games up to ps1 play just fine.
If you download the latest firmware does it include the previous games from the older firmware ? Or do you need to do each update individually ? I welcome evercade content
It swaps the monthly game you don't get to keep it. I'm glad you like evercade content!
I have this and all carts I love it, do retro Sundays with my lad on this, such nostalgia and fun BUT... lad still prefers his ps lol
Most youngins will prefer their modern consoles
@@PDubsArcadeLoft agreed, but he does like n64 ps2 and gamecube
Great review dude! 🤘🍺💨
Thank you my brother!
I got mine on sale, for 70 bucks including 1 cartridge and a controller. I am addicted to buying these cartridges. Lol
Lol it is addicting
So, no getting your VS bricked by updates then like some people have reportedly had happen to them?
How many updates have you had to do?
My VS has never bricked...and I've done 3 updates
@@PDubsArcadeLoft Alright for some eh.
I wish evercade made a wireless version of their controller...even my snes i play wireless nowaday
How much does this thing cost And can you tell me the amount $$ it cost and not just ware to buy this system....
Prices vary depending on what bundle you pick. Just go to Amazon and type Evercade VS in the search bar and pick the bundle you like. Could be anywhere from 100-200 depending on how many controllers and games you want included in the bundle
Thank you for the information I really appreciate it!👍
Can you play the cartridges that came out on the handheld on the VS home console and vice versa ?
Yes sir
Apart from the namco ones I believe, they only play on the handheld.
How much time you really have for gaming per week? 10 hours?
Yeah around that amount
They don't offer tate mode on the arcade games so I'll pass on any collections which were originally 3:4.
So each time it updated you get new game but do that game stay on your console? If so, do you see it run out of storage space? But if you bought this later on and now the new version is 2.15 so how do you get version 2.10 free games? Do all those free games included on version 2.15 if you are a new member?
No they swap the game out monthly it works like game pass
The nice thing is, it looks like it stays on your system until you donwload the newest FW so if you're not done playing the title, you can finish it up before updating to the next month's game!

6:20 Full Screen: Why You Would!
If you have an old 4:3 display or CRT TV the picture gets squished unless you enable Full Screen mode.
(Switch lacks this feature making it terrible for playing old games on CRT TVs)
Great video great games 👍 good show
Hey thanks Peter!
More Evercade.content..!!!
Let's do it!
Yes more evercade please
If you use it alot and enjoy your time with it than you didnt waste your money
That's a good way to look at it
Just love buying physical games once again
Always fun!
well... I much older than you so I owned many different systems...
This "new" system is a product for a niche market : collectors. Sure it's cool, but in a world literally burning right now, with the exhaustion of resources , more physical product like this is not reasonable, at least for me.
Sure, it's cool for all the indie games and some pretty obscure games but you won't have "big" game son this system (like capcom, Sega or Nintendo...). As usual, there is already a flashcard for this system : running Retroarch with it is pretty bad, because the system is not powerful enough....
Apart from collecting plastic boxes , I don't see the point of this system. Well done to Evercade to be enough confident to launch a new system in this period of time (Ouya tried also... with a big failure in the end...).
I had the opportunity to test this system at friend's house : it's cool to show your kids , "what daddy used to play when he was a kid..."... but that's about it.
Yeah, time is the enemy... I don't have time for time 🤨
Ditto
@@PDubsArcadeLoft Didn't realise you was a member of the Evercade Fans Hub. Glad you liked me posting your vid there 🤩🤩🕹🕹🎯
I've also ordered the Dragon's Lair Overhaul Red Edition like yourself 😀😀
Now subbed my friend 😀😀🕹🕹🎯
So basically... The verdict is. I wish I had more time to play this console. :D
@@sermerlin1 lol thank you and yes it’s a fun console
@@PDubsArcadeLoft Aye, didn't even know this exists until local gaming store posted preorder for the new black version consoles few days ago.
Now i'm having an itch to get it since it's more then just another "pie with emulator" in a plastic box,...
They are actually selling old games (which is amazing) and you can rather collect them as physical copies on cartridges.
I actually buy retail copies for my PS5 as I rather enjoy having my favorite games in physical functional copy (I just hope they don't stop doing that for future consoles, downloading it digitally just feels like I'm basically buying a bag of air from untouched nature).
And it's very good to actually be able to play the games of the old in their original native format so that you can compare and see how games today and how games of the past worked and it's also a good compass for the developers to not loose their touch.
All in all I'm impressed by this actual retro console.
This is for fathers of gamers to give to there kid for christmas so there kids can learn about real gaming they will ask for games for birthday and christmas and later they will get paper rounds to get money to buy more games outside of birthdays and christmas like real gamers did back in more civilized times
Very nostalgic way to look at it!
BOOGERMAN!!
I'm late to the party and I'm having a hard time finding one
Tehy're coming out with the Tomb Raider edition in July. It is like a clay gray and blue color. The box is cool.
A waste of money, carts are not cheap, slow in coming out. Get 1000's on a retro console for less, or can you, do your own system as roms are easy to find.
Only heard of the Evercade name in passing. Didn't know exactly what it was. After watching this video, I feel an itch I may have to scratch. Thanks Dubs!
Lol happy to help!
I do like the fact I can legally play the games.
