The Activision edition of the Super Pocket handheld, shown front and back. The front carries the classic Activision rainbow across the D-pad and buttons, with H.E.R.O. on the screen.

The Super Pockets are a great product, nicely designed, they come with a load of pre-installed games plus you can play any Evercade cartridge on them, all for under £50. I've bought the Taito and Capcom versions and have had loads of use out of them.

The next one up has defo caught my attention, as HyperMegaTech and Blaze have announced an Activision edition of the Super Pocket, which comes loaded with 34 games from the Activision back catalogue.

If you had an Atari 2600 in the 80s, where Activision had some real success, there's going to be a lot of nostalgia here for you.

Games included

  • Barnstorming
  • Beamrider
  • Boxing
  • Checkers
  • Chopper Command
  • Cosmic Commuter
  • Demon Attack
  • Dolphin
  • Dragonfire
  • Enduro
  • Grand Prix
  • H.E.R.O.
  • Kabobber
  • Kaboom!
  • Keystone Kapers
  • Laser Blast
  • MegaMania
  • Moonsweeper
  • Oink!
  • Pitfall!
  • Pitfall II: Lost Caverns
  • Plaque Attack
  • Pressure Cooker
  • Private Eye
  • River Raid
  • River Raid II
  • Robot Tank
  • Seaquest
  • Skiing
  • Sky Jinks
  • Spider Fighter
  • Stampede
  • Starmaster
  • Thwocker

It's a hit list, some standouts for me are Pitfall, Pitfall II, along with River Raid and River Raid II, H.E.R.O., Kaboom!, Keystone Kapers, Demon Attack, Enduro, Chopper Command, MegaMania and Seaquest, and plenty more besides.

These are some of the games that made Activision the first big third-party publisher, set up by a handful of Atari programmers who wanted their names on the box.

The specs, and where to get it

It is the familiar Super Pocket shape, dressed up in the Activision colours. You get a 2.8 inch IPS screen at 320 by 240, USB-C charging, a headphone jack, and around four hours of battery. As mentioned earlier, the best bit is that it's Evercade compatible, so any cartridges you already own or purchase will slot straight in, giving you access to hundreds of other games.

This one is priced at £59.99 standalone, or with an official case bundle for an extra fiver (£64.99). Both are available to pre-order now, with shipping expected on the 28th of September.

You can find it on the Funstock store, and there is more detail over on the official HyperMegaTech site.

Another lovely little retro gaming machine, what a time to be a retro gamer!
