Evercade is delighted to welcome back Team17 to our Evercade cartridge lineup! And as the title says – it’s time for Amiga games!

Team17 Collection 1 will be Evercade’s third home computer-based cartridge collection, and like all others will come with a full colour manual with game controls detailed, as well as a physical cartridge and a blue spine colour clamshell case! It’s wonderful to have Team17 back on Evercade following their previous release – Worms Collection 1!

Ten great games from Team17’s back catalogue will find a new home on Evercade with this collection. The full games list is:

  • Alien Breed Special Edition ’92
  • Alien Breed II
  • Alien Breed Tower Assault
  • Arcade Pool
  • ATR: All Terrain Racing
  • Body Blows
  • Full Contact
  • Kingpin: Arcade Sports Series Bowling
  • Project X: Special Edition ’93
  • Qwak

The Team17 Collection 1 cartridge also marks the first games to come to Evercade using Amiga emulation. For the first time on a handheld gaming device and a physical cartridge collection, legal Amiga emulation can bring these classic titles back into peoples hands, fully licensed. No difficult emulation setup, no scouring of the web or amending of files to make things work – simply plug in the cartridge and play!

This collection is also compatible with all Evercade devices, including the Evercade VS home console, Original Handheld and Evercade EXP handheld console running the latest 3.0.X firmware.

This collection will be available to purchase on May 31st 2023, and will be available to pre-order from March 17th 2023. You can see what this collection is all about by checking out the trailer below!

The Final Original Handheld Firmware Update Has Been Relased

As announced last year, the Evercade Handheld is now out of production. Whilst it is still available at retailers who have stock and via second-hand sales, Blaze Entertainment are no longer producing this product.

Last year, we advised that there would be a final firmware update and now, it is finally here. Version 3.0.0 will bring some new features and multiple fixes, and will leave the original handheld in the best position possible for future cartridge compatability.

Visit the blog below to read up on the additional features and fixes and instructions of how to update your original handheld. At present, the Windows installer is the only active update, with Mac coming in the next few days, and Linux in the coming weeks.
