I don't have to, I have no guilt. In fact, I've bought like three copies of Technos Vol 1. I got the Kunio-Kun collection on Switch and bought singles on PS4. They got paid, we're straight, I got a letter from the president of Technos who said "lol thanks bro, you can do whatever you want now", and you're just fudgein jealous. Certainly not going to enrich some fudgeo on eBay who thinks the $20 cart should go for $anything more than 20.

There will be a second showcase in July too, to announce the rest of the 2023 carts.
This was arguably the best news for me, since I'm still stubbornly holding onto the EXP LE coupon. I'll be able to optimize it completely after seeing what July has to offer.

Yeah I completely forgot about the coupon when preordering the Atomic Edition! That really annoyed me since I get my Evercade games from Video Games Plus now and never buy from Funstock anymore. I emailed them asking if they would apply the coupon, even though it's paid for, but haven't gotten a response yet.

#91 DarkFact
Someone pointed out the Duke Nukem art they solicited was AI generated. Evercade originally came out and insisted it wasn't, people were quick to point out it was very obviously AI generated and the guy they paid had basically nothing but AI generated images in their portfolio and they deleted their defense
However, the actual contents are very cool!

Apparently they not only took down their defense but they apologized to fans and are commissioning new art.
From https://www.eurogame...
"Over the last 24 hours, we have been humbled by the support and excitement over our newest cartridge announcements and our partnership with Gearbox to bring the Duke Nukem franchise to Evercade," Byatt said in a formal statement.
"As part of this, an artist was commissioned to produce a lead image for the new Duke Nukem 1+2 Remastered game developed by Blaze Entertainment. It is abundantly clear from the response on social media that the work on this commission has fallen below the expectation and standards demanded by fans due to the artists’ use of AI in the process.
"We are immediately removing the art where possible to do so and will be announcing a replacement commission in due course that better meets the high standard expected," the statement continues. "We would like to apologise to you, all of the fans, who have felt passionately about this enough and please be assured are working to remedy this. We also would like to thank everyone who’s worked on the project to date for their input."

Blaze's transparency with this sort of stuff - and the speed at which they respond - is a breath of fresh air in this day and age. I'm still really impressed with how they handled the Evercade EXP theft, too.
A lot of major publishers would have handled that very differently.

According to Blaze, the Team 17 Collection 1 charted on the UK physical releases charts. I don't know if that says more about how much an Evercade cart sold, or more about how few sales in the UK are physical.

Could also be how beloved the Amiga is over there.
Or that there just weren't a lot of other releases that week

Blaze/Evercade's big announcement was this morning, and it's a Game Boy "Pocket" style and themed handheld that can play all Evercade carts. There's a Capcom themed unit in blue and yellow, and a Taito themed unit in green and black. Both come with a dozen built-in games for their respective manufactures and retail for $59.
Not bad for a smaller version of the Evercade with games, but I think this might the first Evercade product I pass on. If they go on sale for, like, half the price, then maybe. But I'm good with my VS. and EXP for now. This might be what less hardcore Evercade fans/those interested in the Evercade might go for though. Like the Switch Lite.

Interestingly it's not branded as evercade which is probably a smart move.
It does give hope for future taito/Capcom compilations on the evercade itself though

Yeah I thought that was interesting too. Maybe it's a good move, we'll see.

I'd definitely be up for this.

The Taito one is cool but I have almost all those games on the Egret Mini.

Sadly I don’t have one of those :(
I also like the Taito branding on the handheld more than the Capcom branding. The EXP is loaded with all those and more I think anyways
