Evercade Publishes Instructional Video On Sharing Physical Games

 

DATE: July 2, 2026

LETCHWORTH, UK: Evercade, a brand of Blaze Entertainment, has published an informative instructional video on the process of sharing your physical Evercade game cartridges with friends.

In this short video, available on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok and Bluesky, the team at Evercade gives a concise and detailed explanation of how you can share your Evercade game cartridges with friends in order to play any one of 700 great retro and indie games.

Evercade game cartridges feature a selection of curated retro games, officially licensed from game publishers. These cartridge collections are entirely physical, meaning you get a physical cartridge that can be used in any Evercade retro gaming console. All games are saved to the cartridge as well, so you can pick up and resume your gaming on any device, whether at home, on the go, or at a friend's.

Evercade has released over 80 of these physical game cartridges since their introduction in 2020, and can be played using the Evercade EXP-R or Super Pocket handheld consoles, the Evercade VS-R TV console, or the Evercade AlphaBartop Arcade.

They can also be played on the upcoming Evercade Nexus, releasing in October 2026, featuring Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie in the included Banjo-Kazooie Double Pack cartridge.

Evercade is a physical gaming platform that aims to recreate the classic retro gaming experience. Each collection comes with a full colour manual that Evercade has created to educate users about the selection of games, and often has nice extras like a sticker sheet, a poster or more.

Evercade cartridges feature some of the best games in history, including everything from the early days of the arcade, to the peak of the arcade in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the evolution of home computers across the decades and the move to 3D with home consoles. Featuring names such as Tomb Raider, Activision, Duke Nukem, NEOGEO, Rare, Atari, Data East, and more!

The newest cartridge collections of Visco Arcade 1 and Visco Arcade 2 were announced earlier this week and will each be available for £19.99, $29.99, and €24.99, releasing on August 28th, 2026. Available right now are NEOGEO Arcade 4 and Activision Collection 3, which released on June 26th, alongside the Super Pocket Rare Edition, which features the new port of Banjo-Kazooie. The new port also includes hidden extras like previously unreleased music from the game!

Notes
Evercade was first released in 2020 as a handheld device with ten gaming cartridges of classic console licenses. Since then, it has grown to several other hardware devices (listed below) and now has over 70 physical cartridge collections and more than 600 games across the entire ecosystem.
The Evercade EXP-R handheld gaming system is available globally and is available indivudially, bundled with a cartridge.
The Evercade VS-R home console system is currently available worldwide from Amazon and other local retailers. It is available bundled with a cartridge, or on its own with a controller included in each option.
The Evercade Alpha bartop arcade systems are available globally, and each come with 6 built-in Capcom games and competition-grade arcade controls, plus full compatibility with all Evercade cartridges. A new version with built-in TAITO games will be released in 2025.
Evercade devices play games via emulation on bespoke cartridges. These physical releases come in a classic clamshell case with a full-colour manual, custom written by Blaze with controls, hints and tips, and interesting facts about the titles and developers.
Evercade emulates a wide range of systems (including 8, 16, 32 and 64-bit console, handhelds, THEC64 and Amiga home computers, plus arcade games), as well as natively run games. It also highlights modern retro games created by indie developers, with support for five decades of gaming.
Evercade cartridges have three distinct colour schemes to highlight their content. Red-coloured boxes feature home console collections from multiple systems across five decades of gaming. Purple indicates Arcade game collections, and Blue is for home computer collections.
In 2023, Blaze Entertainment launched its new brand HyperMegaTech! to provide more retro gaming products aimed at a more casual market. Its first four products, the Super Pocket handheld gaming devices, also come with Evercade cartridge compatibility.
