@RootsGenoa Yeah, I'm sure that we'll be able to use save states... I mean, you can on the Duke Nukem collection can't you? I imagine this is a similar style of emulation.
Interesting note about the manual saves in the game. The review makes it sound like the games don't take advantage of the Evercades built in save states but I'm sure that's not the case.
I do keep thinking that maybe this will come out on the Evercade at some point? They're yet to announce the next giga cart and have already got a relationship with Capcom.
It'd be amazing if it did but I am preparing myself for disappointment.
@Gs69 You may have just answered a question I've been having for months now.. I'm trying to find the perfect controller for the A500 Mini and I'd never even considered the Neo Geo controller!
@Diogmites You probably have. The controller pictured is the analogue pad for the console. It wasn't the default pad that came with the console and was released after the console came out.
Looking forward to this one I must admit. Like many others I imagine, I've never played the first two Duke Nukem games and once again, Evercade are showing their commitment to creating a new home for some forgotten classics.
I can’t argue with any of this list but it must have been great fun to put together. I absolutely love Ridge Racer and keep going back to the original from time to time.
Also, spot on putting Type 4 in the number one spot but I would have expected a mention of the Jogcon. It takes some getting used to but it’s alright once it gets going… Not as good as a pad obviously, but still interesting.
How long have Strictly Limited been operating now and they still run into issues where things take 'way longer than expected'?
For me, the damage has been done. They have a poor business model that relies on customers bank rolling them for years before they receive a product. I'm sure that if they didn't have the year long pre order scheme, they'd go out of business pretty quick.
With these long lead times, extortionate prices and often a substandard product at the end of it, I'll never be using Strictly Limited again.
It's just a shame that so many people are happy to put up with them.

Re: Limited Run Celebrates The Dreamcast's 25th With Trading Cards
These do look awesome however... Since they're Limited Run Games, and I promised to never spend another penny with them, I'll have to miss out.
It does bode well though because if I can resist buying these, I can resist anything they'll ever put out.
Re: Review: Tomb Raider Collection 1 (Evercade) - No-Frills Emulation Of Lara's Essential Adventures
@Bonggon5 On the other hand, I do see the appeal of the Evercade and I'm glad it's getting new releases. They seem to keep getting better too!

Re: PS1 Classics Legacy Of Kain: Blood Omen And Soul Reaver Come To Evercade
Well this is exciting. It seems that the Evercade has really hit it's stride this year.
I can't imagine anyone looking at the Evercade library and thinking that there's nothing for them on there.
Re: The Bitmap Brothers Collection 2 Brings Amiga Classics To Evercade
Looking forward to this one but it's shame we haven't got the Amiga version of Speedball 2. That's my absolute favourite.
Also, I wonder if Magic Pockets will have the original music? I'm guessing not.
Re: The "Completely Uncut" Version Of Resident Evil Has Arrived On GOG
I do keep thinking that maybe this will come out on the Evercade at some point? They're yet to announce the next giga cart and have already got a relationship with Capcom.
It'd be amazing if it did but I am preparing myself for disappointment.
Re: Evercade's Next Carts Include Batsugun, Super BurgerTime, Edward Randy And Midnight Resistance
I do like my shooters so I'm really looking forward to this!
I'm a big fan of Burger Time too so yeah, this is ideal.
Re: Review: Atari 400 Mini - A Deep Cut, But A Welcome One
@Gs69 and it works straight out the box once it's paired with the USB 2 receiver?
This seems like the answer to my prayers.

Nice work... I might have to give one a go.

Re: These New Final Fight Figures From 52Toys Look Ridiculously Good
@NinChocolate Something like these you mean?
https://www.joytoyworld.com/collections/52toys-action-figures/products/52toys-game-characters-1-18-captain-commando
I believe you can buy them from Aliexpress but they're about £30 a figure which is a bit steep for my liking.
Re: 5 More Classic Rare Games Have Just Arrived On Nintendo Switch Online
How strange. I thought Blast Corps was already on there? Oh well, looking forward to these!
Re: Sensible Soccer Just Got "Beach Soccer" DLC
@-wc-
Don't know if you have an Xbox but it's available on the 360 and it's backwards compatible so it works on the later models too.
Re: Talking Point: As GAME Brings Trade-Ins To An End, What Was Your Greatest Exchange?
I worked for GAME years ago and managed to pick up a complete copy of Symphony of the Night on the Playstation for £6.50.
I've still got it now.
Re: Cash Cow DX Is Another Promising Arcade Throwback From Donut Dodo Devs
This looks ace! Fingers crossed it'll come to the Evercade in the future.
Re: Best Evercade Games, Ranked By You
A strong showing for several arcade cartridges there and to be honest, I'm not surprised to see the C64 or Intellivision carts not make the top 20.
Re: How Many Of These "Lost" Zelda Games Have You Played?
I'd be all over that Barcode Battler game! I never knew they made expansions for it.

Re: Random: This Incredible Website Celebrates The Time When Big Boxes Were King
This is amazing!
Re: Review: Full Void - Evercade's Most Accomplished Native Release Yet
I bought this and managed to complete it in under 3 hours (Please don't take that as a humble brag because I'm not great at games these days).
I did really enjoy those three hours though so I'm happy... Sort of.

Re: Everything Revealed At The Evercade Showcase Vol. 2
Full Void looks amazing but the rest of the carts are leaving me a bit cold. I'm not a huge fan of indie games so I guess I'm not the target market.
