(Look out for another 5% off at checkout!)  First up is  Evercade offering a clutch of offers on hardware and games on Amazon and across other stores in Europe and US markets.  Not all deals have kicked in yet, but the official list is:  Up to 30% off all cartridges released before September 2025 20% off all hardware released before September 2025 US and Canada to receive 20% off all lines released...

The Oliver Twins' Dizzy Collection comes to Evercade

What a great treat for the first post-launch Evercade pack... going way back to the 8-bit days, the new release is a Dizzy Collection, the Sonic of his time. Blaze is working with publisher Codemasters and the Twins for a great pack featuring:


Treasure Island Dizzy
Fantastic Dizzy
Go! Dizzy Go!
Dizzy The Adventurer
Panic Dizzy
Wonderland Dizzy
Mystery World Dizzy

and a few guest titles:

BMX Simulator
DreamWorld Pogie
FireHawk
Super Robin Hood



Looks like mostly NES versions, but that's no bad thing. As a bonus, all profits from this cartridge will go to the ‘National Videogame Museum’ which took a bit of a hammering during COVID, so it will be good to help out. Full details here.


This cart will be available in the third quarter of 2020, with a few more scheduled for across the rest of this year.
