VG Pocket is a series of handheld dedicated game consoles built by JungleTac and sold by Performance Designed Products LLC. The VG Pocket model was the first console of its type to have a 2" backlit color LCD screen. Description The consoles have built-in games, the number of which varies with each model and many are clones and hacks of old Nintendo Entertainment System and arcade games. The devices also have a TV-out port with composite video and audio streaming through a non-standard stereo mini headset jack. In 2008, the Caplet and Tablet models were also finalists in the International Design Excellence Awards; they were designed by Stuart Karten Design, a Los Angeles-based industrial design firm. Versions There are five VG Pocket models available: VG Pocket Mini: 30 built-in games and a 1.5" screen. VG Pocket 50: 50 built-in games and a 2" screen. VG Pocket Max: 75 built-in games and a 2.5" screen. VG Pocket Caplet: 50 games, including licensed versions of Space Invaders, Bust-a-Move, and BurgerTime. VG Pocket Tablet: 25 games, including a licensed version of Frogger. VG Pocket Max The VG Pocket Max is a handheld dedicated console distributed by Performance Designed Products. The system contains 75 games, which are mostly modified NES games. It has a 2.5" backlit color LCD screen, four buttons (plus a reset and a power button), a directional pad, volume control, a single speaker, a headphone jack, and a TV-out port. In the UK a handheld was made called the Gamespower 50. The Gamespower 50 contained almost all the games (with names changed, such as Bird Droppings retitled as Birdies Nest) and looked exactly the same, except with different color. A plug and play version was made by Dream Gear, being essentially the same as the Gamespower 50. The plug n' play looks like a Dreamcast controller, but internally there is not much of a resemblance. This version is more focused on racing games, and only has 30 to 40 games in it. Unlike the VG Pocket Max, both the Gamespower 50 and the plug n' play version lack a selection menu.
