The original Evercade ( 8/10, WIRED Recommends) was a handheld console that debuted in 2020, offering the ability to play titles that were available on old systems like the NES, SNES, the Sega Genesis (Mega Drive), Atari Lynx, and the Mattel Intellivision. The improved version, the Evercade EXP ( 7/10, WIRED Review) supports the same games and still has a 4.3-inch screen, but it's a much sharper IPS panel. There's also USB-C charging and TATE mode for vertical shooters, which makes for a solid upgrade. It's not without its faults. Build quality is questionable and the button layout can be awkward, especially for TATE mode.
