Evercade is responsible for some of the most popular retro hardware on the market, with the Evercade handhelds and and home console boasting a library of over 500 games across 50-plus cartridge compilations.

Preorders go live June 4, and you’ll be able to save $20 on your order thanks to Evercade’s introductory offer.

Other notable features include a vibrant 8-inch display, stereo speakers, headphone jack, and Wi-Fi support for updates. There’s even a swappable light-up marquee if you want to change your style. Each cabinet includes a few additional marquees, while others will be sold separately.
