lol WHAT IS IT?!!?  Man... this looks pretty cool.  So this will be the official high end Evercade handheld then?  Not sure about the cost... but EVEEEERRRYTHING is going up in price right now. Is it worth the cost?  I do like this format and have been saying we need more portable gaming instead of these devices that keep increasing their handheld footprint.  There are use cases for those as well, but we have been lacking in the portable gaming department.

This looks cool... What are your thoughts?

I am waiting for its release to get everyone's feel of the unit. But I am also, in the back of my head, taking a real interest. The bigger screen has caught my attention. And I hope the thumb joysticks means playstation and N64 collection cartridges in the future. I want to see some ridge racer. I might start putting some cash away and hope the price tag doesn't put me in shock. I am crossing my fingers and hoping it is not above $200. I know, I'm dreaming.
I have become a real fan of the Evercade consoles. They are a dedicated retro game line of consoles, that alone has got me hooked. I have become very impressed with the Evercade VS. It has really become my console of choice under my smart TV. I presently have three console there. The Hyperkin RetroN GX, Evercade VS, and Wii U. They sit under my TV in that order. My VS has two Toaplan cartridges in it right at the moment. Got sit down with a Shmup.

@retro junkie --> Man... I swore I saw $169.95 in the video... I went back and looked and it's not there.  Maybe a future premonition lol.   However, Gamestop has it pegged at $199.99 WITH the Banjo collection cart

Nice!  I will throw out a pre-order topic as well.  It's not a super expensive system... but I like the system at $169.95 LOL.  Maybe it would be without the Banjo collection  :))
