Tomorrow, the fourth Evercade Showcase will be broadcast and is likely to contain news about new cartridges and (possibly) new hardware.
The last showcase revealed Neo Geo carts, new Super Pocket devices and more, so what could possibly be in store for tomorrow's event?
The broadcast is also celebrating the fifth birthday of the Evercade range, so it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect something pretty significant to be announced.
The Evercade series kicked off back in 2020 with the first handheld, which was later superseded by the Evercade EXP. The range also includes the Evercade VS, Evercade Alpha and the aforementioned Super Pocket series, with the latter being produced by Blaze's HyperMegaTech sub-brand.
Airing on May 29th, Evercade Showcase Volume 4 will be broadcast at 8pm UK time—which is 9pm for most of Europe, 3pm for US Eastern and 12pm for US Pacific.
What are you hoping to see from tomorrow's showcase? Let us know with a comment below.

I would love to see a Bartop Arcade with all 4 classic Mortal Kombat arcade games.
@SlangWon Yes, Mortal Kombat has been oddly absent among retro releases. I’d like to see a Mortal Kombat cartridge for my VS console. That would be my preference.
Selfishly, I want to see an MVS Evercade Alpha cab. WITH the red and white stripes and changeable marquees….
Sega. Anything remotely Sega.
A Master System collection with Alex Kidd in Miracle World, Alex Kidd in Shinobi World, Wonderboy 3, Psycho Fox, Zillion, Golvellius: Valley of Doom and Action Fighter.
A collection of Phantasy Star 1-4
A Mega Drive collection of Story of Thor, Soleil, Dynamite Headdy, Ristar, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage 2, Eternal Champions and Columns.
Doesn’t have to be a full Konami collection, just a port of Symphony of the Night. That’s it.
The absolute dream would be Squaresoft but that will never happen.
Turrican collection would be nice, Last Ninja, or a Dizzy computer collection with Amiga or Spectrum / C64 versions. The Lotus Amiga games would be great too, or Dungeon Master with mouse support.
If I was thinking more modern, Ridge Racer or a Resident Evil collection would be something else, but I can't imagine Capcom doing that any time soon.
I expect a neo geo alpha. Sonce i recently bought a sf2 alfa sort of double feeling. But on the other hand. Bought it discounted and when i head a neo geo cart was coming.
I want them to release lots of marquees to decorate the alpha
I expect some more neo geo. Some more amiga carts (i hope for an amiga sensible cart. But i guess).
I would probaly buy anything amiga and most arcade. Hope that they don’t delay stuff again
I expect to know if they're going to release other Alpha models, just to make sure if I want the Mega Man one or another that I like more. Either way it'll be a relief, because right now I live in fear that I'll get the Alpha and a better one will be announced just after that. Not sure if I'd buy a Neo Geo Alpha, because I have its games everywhere, but who knows. It will depend on the line-up.
Anyway, I expect and hope they're going to announce juicy cartridges, and the return of the console ones with legendary companies involved. Especially 8-16 bits. I've loved those so far.
And more arcade purple carts, of course. Maybe second parts to Irem and Jaleco collections. I got Technos covered with the recent Super Technos World collection on modern systems.
I don’t expect it, but my dream GigaCart would be the PS1 Resi 1,2,3 in a collection! More Sensible/Codemasters/Dizzy games would be nice, but those lovely new US owners at EA seem to have put a stop to that sort of fun.
More realistically, probably some ZX Spectrum titles on another home computer cart feels like it will arrive soon? I feel like some big PS1 games might come as a headline act…but where do you go after Tomb Raider? (That they can actually licence that is!)
Well I expect we will see those new colorway VS/EXP-R they quickly teased last video. I would love an SNK Alpha as well. Game wise, a second Neo Geo cart and maybe a non-Neo Geo SNK cart showing off their NES days.
I was hoping to see a resurgence of stock, availability and improved distribution in the US :/.

A better Discord server?
@Ristar24 I'd love that stuff to. A Dizzy collection is a problem right now. I did originally ask for it to happen but the Twins said no. You're not getting the Lotus games either due to the licence.
@slider1983 Ah, I guess we just have the NES games then. I do enjoy them as I'd not played those version before.
I still have a disc with the Lotus games that Retro Gamer magazine gave away as a cover disc years back, I wonder how they cleared it at the time.
@Ristar24 I had no idea Retro Gamer put out the Lotus games as freebies. It's very good ow the licencing works. Antstream is allowed to put out Amiga Zool with its Chupa Chumps licencing but when they remastered it in HD they weren't allowed to use the lollipop company.
@slider1983 Was a long time ago, Gremlin's Greatest Hits disc issue 3 I think, I still have it so put the games on my A500 mini! One game that is a real shame in that respect is OutRun 2, still one of the best arcade racers ever I think but can't be re-released.
@Ristar24 OutRun 2? Oh yeah because of the licencing.
