Evercade.

Evercade is a new handheld for classic Atari, Interplay, and Namco games

Evercade is a new portable gaming machine partnering with publishers of classic games Namco, Atari, Interplay, and Data East to make it easier to play retro hits like Bad Dudes, Earthworm Jim, and Yars’ Revenge on the go.

The handheld is coming out during Q4 2019. A base version will come with one cartridge (Evercade has not specified which it will be) and cost $80. A premium edition will come with three cartridges and cost $100. Other companies have made portables designed for playing old games, but these are often cheap and depend on built-in or downloaded game ROMs. Evercade’s use of officially licensed cartridges makes it stand out.
