Evercade Alpha: The Smart & Stupid $250 Mini Arcade!
124I just got my hands on the Evercade Alpha, and this thing is a BEAST! It's a mini arcade cabinet based on the Evercade!
On the one hand, it's got that classic arcade feel with a joystick, buttons, and even a light-up marquee! Plus, it plays all those awesome Evercade cartridges with tons of old-school games. But here's the kicker: it costs a whopping $250! And for that price, some of the issues are kinda hard to ignore.
So, is it worth it? Well, if you're a die-hard Evercade fan or REALLY want a mini arcade cabinet, it just might be!
