New Evercade carts for Jaleco and Piko ready for pre-order

A fresh set of retro classics are on the way to the Evercade handheld console, with a pair of carts dedicated to publishers Jaleco and Piko.

The retro-train keeps rolling

One of the nicest surprises of 2020, the Evercade continues to look like a solid choice for those who like their gaming skewed to the retro side. With a number of collections out already, the company has expanded the handheld’s library once again with a new duo.

A pair of new cartridges have been announced and are already set for pre-ordering, with the Jaleco Collection 1 and Piko Interactive Collection 2. Both of those include games you’re going to know if your gaming-life comes from the 8 or 16bit eras.
