Need more gaming on the go? The Super Pocket Capcom and Taito handhelds from Hyper Mega Tech could help, with preorders happening soon.
I don’t need any elaborate excuse to buy cool handhelds these days. In a post-Vita world(Vita means ‘Life’) it feels like portable gaming is as prevalent as ever. Developer Hyper Mega Tech is looking to throw its own hat into the ring with theSuper Pocket CapcomandTaito handheld editions. Coming from the folks that brought the Evercade system to life, these nearly 3 inch IPS screens pack a ton of gaming punch.
And by that, I meanStreet FighterII. Of course.
The Super Pocket looks to be a smaller, Gameboy-esque offshoot of HMT’s Evercade EXP–Which actually does look like the Vita. If you’re looking for retro, legal gaming then you could certainly do far worse than these cute, form fitting pocket devices.
