After playing the exp off and on throughout the extended weekend I’m guessing it’s roughly 2.5 hours on a full charge. Kind of bummer but maybe Blaze can optimize the battery life in a future update.

I wasn’t thrilled, especially since review outlets were quoting 3.5-4 and I’m like, how…?

Same. I turned the brightness all the way down to like 20% and it didn’t seem to help much.

I've had my Vs. for a few months now and I love this thing. A friend of mine sold me his premium pack and Data East Collection for $100.
He knew I had really been wanting one so he gave me a good deal. Up until a few weeks ago I didn't even have my PS4 hooked up since getting it.
It's a good option for me since I can't afford spending like 70 on a new game, so having something I can get multiple games for gives me tons to play. I use stuff like Amazon Shopper's Panel and Fetch to get free Amazon credit and I usually save it up for a month and get a new cart free every month. Except this month, only had like 15 in credit so I paid about 15 for Toaplan Arcade. Can't wait for it to come in, Tiger Heli is one of my favorite NES games and I've never played the arcade version, not to mention the other games.
Here's a list of what I have so far: Technos Arcade 1, Data East Arcade 1, Data East Collection 1, Jaleco Collection 1, Piko Interactive Collection 1, Renovation Collection 1, Interplay Collection 2, and Atari Lynx Collection 2

The VS is definitely the premier Evercade product for me. It's been a blast to try out the "game of the month" releases, and I'm excited for them to finally hit cartridge soon.

I got my Indies Collection 2 a couple of days ago, and was just thinking how Evercade has been quiet about future carts. Good lordy not anymore! That's a lot of carts! I think my Evercade shelf is big enough. Still waiting on my EXP of course.

It's nice to have a system I can collect every game for and it doesn't break the bank.

Same. Because they have to be picked up from other outlets, though, I have a hard time keeping track of which ones I have. I may have missed the Indie Heroes Collection 2, I think.

Indie heroes 2 just released this week so you haven't missed it.
Blaze is pretty good about notifying on discord and social media whenever new carts are up for preorder. I usually get them from VGPlus.
The biggest obstacle I see for them is how sporadic their Amazon availability is.

@benstylus What's your name in the discord? I'm hanging out in there a lot. They have an awesome community going there.

Agreed. Though I got Indie Collection 2 from Best Buy. They seem to be carrying more and more newer Evercade stuff.

Same. I had a $5 certificate that I thought I'd never use until I saw they were selling Everdrive carts. Two problems solved at once!

I received this email from Evercade and Funstock about the status of the EXP Limited Edition this morning:
| Hello everyone, and thank you for your patience. We have some new updates for you regarding your replacement Evercade EXP Limited Editions. In our last update, we informed everyone that production of the replacement Evercade EXP Limited Edition had started and that some updates were being made to the production process to eliminate the possibility of tight cartridges from the first batches of cartridges in 2020. We can confirm that we’ve received and tested samples of the newly amended shell and can confirm that these units will have no issue with tight cartridges. Since the initial theft, we’ve been working with law enforcement on continuing their investigation and reporting where stolen items have been listed. With your help, we’ve been able to provide the authorities with several cases where stolen goods have attempted to be re-sold along with a lot of evidence that they are part of the stolen batch. We thank you for this and believe that the authorities have enough information to use with any evidence or investigation. Our factory has confirmed that production will be completed by March 3rd. We can now get to work making sure our logistics align to that date and can confirm that Funstock will be able to dispatch all orders between March 24th-March 31st. Once we are closer to the window, and freight is on its way, we’ll be able to define a more specific date where Funstock will be able to release orders to you. All of the names for the Evercade EXP Heroes have now been collected and are ready to go into the firmware, so when you get the replacement Evercade EXP Limited Edition, the credits will be viewable on your device. Once again, we thank you for your patience. We hope that we can bring you a specific date in our next (and hopefully final) update on the replacement units and you get to enjoy the Evercade EXP very soon. Yours sincerely, Blaze Entertainment |

Toaplan Arcade 2 and TheC64 2 are available for preorder today. Just got my order in at VGPlus.
If anyone hasn't ordered from them before, PM me if you want a referral link that will give you a $5 coupon and me a $5 coupon. Not sure if it works on pre-orders though.
Note: apparently the coupon is only good for a $50 (canadian) or more order. So it wouldn't work for the $49.99 two game preorder package without something else too

Funstock wasn't kidding when they said they'd start dispatching their replacement EXP orders soon. I just got my shipping confirmation! YAY!

I'm pretty hype for the Team 17 cart. I had an old gaming magazine that had some Amiga previews, and I remember being blown away by the graphics. I'll definitely be preordering it. It's kinda funny though, the game I'm looking forward to the most is the bowling game. It just looks really good.
