HyperMegaTech has announced the Super Pocket, a new retro arcade handheld that comes complete with a bunch of classic arcade titles for you to enjoy. It’s available in two editions: the Capcom Edition and the Taito Edition, each with its own unique lineup of games.
The Capcom Edition boasts 12 games, including original arcade versions of Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, 1942, and Final Fight, as well as the home console version of Mega Man. Meanwhile, the Taito Edition comes with 17 games, featuring Space Invaders, Bubble Bobble, and Elevator Action, among others.
Both consoles have simple user interfaces and support Evercade’s cartridge system, which means you’ll have access to over 500 games if you want to expand your Super Pocket’s library. The Super Pocket launches in October, with pre-orders opening on July 14th for $59 apiece.
