I actually prefer the white handheld compared to the black. I feel like the black should have had some coloured accents to it, to make it really pop.
The new console does look great however and a massive improvement over the original. I'm not sure it having exclusive content is a good idea though as it really alienates the VS owners.
Below you will find the affected carts and the dates on which they will no longer be produced:
Namco Collection 1 (ends June 2022) Namco Collection 2 (ends June 2022) Technos Collection 1 (ends March 2022) Oliver Twins Collection (ends March 2022)
The above cartridges will still be SOLD past March at retailers, but once the retailers stock runs dry, that's it. I am interested to know what they are going to do with the handheld packages considering they have the Namco 1 Cartridge in.
I've picked up the couple of carts that are going out of print this month, but I haven't fully dived in yet. Hopefully I have some more spare cash in the future and then I can get involved. Of course the Switch will have to stop releasing absolute bangers, so maybe I will just never own an Evercade.
I have been keeping my eye on this and I see it closest comparison being the Wii. Unfortunately the $250 / £250 price tag is just too high and they will have to slash that to at least £200 to really get the attention it needs to succeed.
I have just got into the Evercade ecosystem and the VS console they just announced is much cheaper and appeals to the same sort of people who are looking for more retro feeling games.

Re: Evercade's Latest Carts Offer Inexpensive Access To Yet More Retro Classics
@YANDMAN It might not re-release. They are trying to get a new licence, there are no guarantees unfortunately.
