Hi crazy burger i personally though blaze had a fantastic year loved there new games list hardware for me the last 4 carts where my favourite of the year by a long shot but personally with me neo geo license I really want a alpha bartop red and one area they need work on is better newer gamepad controllers and if possible make a fighting stick with a spinner trackball to use on our vs systems and game wise we desperately need more sports games a nba jam licensed would attract even more plp thanks buddy merry Christmas happy new year to you and your family

J'ai reussi à faire la MAJ au bout de la 2ème fois sur ma Super Pocket Taito sans besoin de télécharger NET Core 3.1 qu'il demande au depart.👍

I ordered an exp-r and will use this to help decide on carts. I am glad it comes with thr TR cart.

Great selections for your Top 10 but was surprised that Glover 64 didn't make an appearance, especially after the analogue controller update. I guess it's not a universally loved game :-) Keep up the awesome work!

I missed Donut Dodo, but Indie #3 was on my Christmas list and I’ll pick it in up Jan if I don’t get it.

Some very different games in that list! Hope you enjoy 2025 just as much!

Great choices matey. We did get some great releases this year. Questionable hardware announcements but the cartridges were awesome. The 10 games I had the most fun this year was. 1- Blood Omen legacy of kain 2- Snow Bros 2 3- Life on mars 4- Fixeight 5- Orebody: a binders tale 6- Batsugun special edition 7- Super Burger time 8- Edward Randy 9- Donut dodo 10- Daze before Christmas So many others I enjoyed but those ones really stood out for me.

I'm so glad to see some. Big2Small love! It's a perfect puzzler.

As someone born and raised in Orlando, thank you for making this. I see some wild driving mistakes every day.

All i want is streetball vol 2 and nfl blitz

How did u set it up

I am so gutted. I ordered the street fighter 2 alpha from Game on the 10th of December and they just informed me my order is cancelled. Now I can’t find one anywhere, will they restock next year?

Probably my top three as well there CB

I've got both the VS-R and the EXP-R , I've had no problem with my EXP-R but the VS-R, has been problematic, infact I'm sending it back, the Evercade VS-R splash screen after the Blaze entertainment logo is not centered to the screen, it' sits to the right and down so it looks a mess and since I updated with the Murto game, it crashes the TV signal, usually about 2 levels in, even though the consoles blue bar remains the picture is lost and requires a reset, also it changes display settings of it's own accord.

Based on our interview I wasn’t surprised by your top two, but wasn’t expecting your number 3! And no Thalamus!?

I’d reverse the order but can’t argue with your choices here. Nice one!

Been playing this for a while on Switch. It's an excellent game.

Legacy of Kain was a very nice surprise. I remember seeing the games in magazines back in the day, but never had the chance to play them. The fact that it is basically "Zelda for adults" was a nice discovery. Tomb Raider also plays surprisingly well, especially with the savestates, which remove lots of the frustration. I did like the Bitmap Brothers 2 as well, especially for Gods. Z is a great game, but is almost unplayable with just a controller. Toaplan Arcade 3 is everything I expect from an arcade cart and plays well on Alpha. Overall, I think this was a good year for Evercade, even if the rebranded VS and EXP felt a bit lackluster.

Yeah, the number of carts as a bit low, but since most were good I won’t complain! My favourites were: 1: Data East Arcade 2 2: Toaplan Arcade 3 3: Thalamus Collection …incidentally I just bought 3 carts this year! If I didn’t already have Ufouria on NES I’d absolutely pick up Sunsoft 2.

Three great carts but wouldn't be my choices simply because I can play most of these on other platforms. My Top 3 would be: (1) Thalamus Collection (2) Bitmap Brothers 2 (3) Piko Collection 4 I think collectively they offer great value for money and a good variety of games. The convenience of being able to play C64 and Amiga games without having to dig out my micro consoles is also a big plus. Piko 4 having Glover 64 on it with the added analogue controller support makes it a worthy addition to my top 3 :-) Keep up the awesome work!

Great choices. This would be how I'd rank the cartridges from favourite to least favorite. Even my least favorites were still fun though. 1- Indie heroes collection 3 2- Toaplan arcade collection 3 3- Data East arcade collection 2 4- Legacy of kain collection 5- Piko collection 4 6- Toaplan arcade collection 4 7- Tomb Raider collection 1 8- Metal Dragon/ Life in mars 9- Sunsoft collection 2 10- Bitmap brothers collection 2 11- C64 collection 3 12- Thalamus collection 1

Arcade carts are good but as I said in a previous video , most of the games are super hard. I prefer to play console carts, my latest buy is intelivision collection 1, it has some pretty nice games.

This is just my opinion, but i think Toaplan Arcade 3 is the best of the year. There's not one bad game on it except Ghox could be a little better.

So basically carts from 2024.. the whole library is massive already, but I think we could get bigger names on that since 2025 will be the year of gaming

Shame they didn't include a more Japanese-accurate version of Ufouria aka Hebereke. Especially since Ufouria 2 didn't mess around with the character designs in the west.

Honestly there were a a number of good carts this year (I'm surprised on the number of 2024 carts I have considering how new I am to Evercade). Toaplan 3 & 4 are both great carts for me and my third spot could swap either Tomb Raider or Legacy of Kain carts as they both show you can get large sprawling games in the Evercade Ecosystem.

@20:44 Close your eyes and imagine you're looking at the title screen of Halo 1. Naughty Microsoft! 😜 The Bitmap Bros 2 Collection is up there for me this year as one of the best, still gutted we didn't get Amiga Chaos Engine and for you, Amiga Speedball 2 lol. I need more time with the Toaplan carts, it's just been hectic since the Alpha released and we're still not done wrapping presents. 😂😂 Thanks Crazy! 👍

first!!! finally

Piko wasn't interested in investing in the original C64 version of Bad Street Brawler, Bop'n Rumble. Totally different experience between the two, besides the obvious censorship.

Evercade needs Gex now

Switch much better

Pre ordered all these from Amazon,but got another email today claiming delays with dispatch even though yesterday they were showing my orders as beeing here by saturday ! this is at least 3 times have done this since pre ordering and i have doubts they will even fullfill the orders as Amazon are becoming really rubbish service on pre ordered items, wish now i had gone with Funstock..

Hi mate did you use the usb cord supplied with the super pocket or a different data cable having issues with mine being detected? Comes up with error saying unknown device? Thanks

I ordered an EverSD and they are taking forever to ship it out. I put in a message asking what is going on.

Just another quick comment. Just a couple of potential suggestion idea's to keep the Evercade content going. Your top 10 ten elimination platformers on Evercade. Favorite to least favorite. Plenty to choose from now lol. And how would you rank all 5 dual carts from favorite to least favorite.

Great video as always, C.B., and thanks! I ordered a new adapter right after watching this. The first EXP-R I received had some major issues, but the replacement works fine (and has almost no LCD corner bleeding). I'm personally satisfied with the sound of the EXP-R. I can mute it to a lower level than the Super Pocket, which makes gaming in public and around the family a better option for me. :).

Evercade Etc unsubscribing

As Yoda once said, "The boy has no patience", with regards to Nobby the Aardvark. 😂😉 The worst game if you can call it that this year was... Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo on Evercade Alpha, we were robbed!!! I told Blaze on the announcement video the western release was locked to the hardest difficulty no matter the setting and only the Japanese version does the difficulty options actually work, and yep we got the western release which is basically unplayable to most people! And it's set to the fastest speed via the dip switches?? The game imo is bugged so that means we only received 5 Street Fighter related games and one glorified Demo that is Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo on the Alpha - Street Fighter Edition.😖 Sega Saturn and a copy of Street Fighter Collection for the win!🤘🤘

If u need batteries for the controllers then I won't be buying.imagine the amount of batteries u will get thru every week

Modern players wont know that when we copied gsmes using twin tape decks some companies put anti software colour cards in with tape..a oblong sheet of numbers along top and down sides..then squares of colours..game would load and would ask d5 you looked along to find d then run finger down column to find 5 and select the colour square like red. Blue. Brown. Green etc...without this card the game wouldnt start..convincing a friend to lend you his original sheet was a challenge tho..😂😂😂

We used to make our own in the 80s , really easy using cereal boxes and a craft knife and pen...simples...

Redefine keys (via game menu) Q=up, a=down i or o = left , p= right , space = fire.

Anyone never playing spectrum games before , on keyboard. In all games (nearly) ull see program own keys (redefine keys) select this then choose the following .... Q=up ,A=down, i or o = left, p= right , space = fire.. Your welcome. 😊

Hey mate you’re channel is the only one I watch for everything Evercade , just picked up the last four carts of the year and was just wondering if anyone else has had any problems with the Toaplan carts the shoot ‘em up’s are simply unplayable on my VS there seems to be a little delay with the directional pad but they play perfectly on my EXP and my three super pockets I’ve also tried a brand new controller as well any advice would be greatly appreciated my VS has had the latest update cannot understand what’s going on never had this problem before.

Agree on Nobby and Target Renegade. Would have agreed on Stormlord 2 until recently (and still might) but learning how to play it made me like it a lot more. Winter Camp is my second most hated game of the year after Target Renegade. Breakdance is fun and beating up on it feels like kicking a puppy. I would add Street Sports Soccer and Chaos Engine 2 to my list.

Agreed, Blaze should at least sell a branded charging brick.

Just got an original Evercade handheld with Duke Nukem and Blood Omen. Getting an EXP-R soon with Tomb Raider. I wish we had a proper joystick on the handheld with the D-Pad. The controls are a little lacking, to be honest. Not my favorite retro style console. I built a Raspberry Pi Zero W 2 last year and it handles most games better...

Breakdance does completely put me off that collection! I remember my C64 owning friend not being interested it even back on original release…I enjoyed Stormlord 2 back in the day on the Spectrum but I bet if I played it it now I’d hate it (much like Cybernoid 2)

I’m groovin’ to that funky music in the aardvark game though! 🎶

So will Evercade be making Official SNK hardware like...The Neogeo X back 2012?
