Title: Hyper-Mega Tech (Blaze) Capcom and Taito super pockets
Post by: SwimTheStyx on January 04, 2024, 09:49:59 pm

If anyone has seen this listed anywhere please let me know. I've tried a few searches to no avail, but I could be missing something given it's not technically a Capcom handheld? Thanks.

It looks like these just came out a couple months ago. Since they seem to have a cart slot for Evercade games, it makes them a non-dedicated console, so they can have the system entries made in the Blaze Consoles section:

Thanks for the swift reply. Yeah, they are by Hyper Mega Tech which is a brand name by Blaze. Their form factors are quite different from any of the Evercade hardware, and they come in a Capcom or Taito version. There is indeed an Evercade slot on both models. I just wondered if they had their own entries, as they do differ quite a bit from the XP or VS hardware. Thanks again.

Form factor:
