Following the critical success of the first two Super Pocket consoles launched in 2023, these two new handhelds also bring you more authentic arcade games, so you can have even more fun and beat those games that cost you all your pocket money when you first played them. All this on top of the best console games from these publishers, all built into your Super Pocket.
There Super Pocket Atari Edition comes with a whopping 50 classic games from the legendary company. The console includes 13 arcade games, including Asteroids, Berzerk, Crystal Castles, Frenzy and many more, as well as over 30 home and handheld games, including Adventure, Warbirds, Dark Chambers, Miner 2049er and many more, from four generations of Atari consoles.

The Super Pocket also allows all players to play quickly and enjoyably thanks to its “easy mode”. This returning feature lowers the difficulty of arcade games so that you can easily pass difficult levels to master, or so that a younger person can avoid encountering difficulty spikes while playing.

These cartridges, designed for Blaze Entertainment's Evercade system, contain officially licensed games from multiple publishers and insert into the Super Pocket through a cartridge port on the back of the console. The full cartridge library is supported, meaning Super Pocket owners can expand their library to over 500 games with these cartridges.

It features four front buttons, a start/select button and a menu button, as well as a circular D-pad, designed for the Super Pocket.
