Super Pocket retro

These arrivals will soon make it four Super Pockets, all eminently collectable, alongside the original Taito and Capcom models still available and providing entry to the full Evercade cart range through the cart slot on the rear. 

Pre-orders start at the end of July for the regular models, with the Limited Atari Edition up for grabs now. Everything ships in October.
