Easy-to-Use User Interface and “Easy Mode”
The Super Pockets are equipped with a user-friendly interface that allows seamless game selection, easy saving and loading of games, and various screen ratio and pixel perfect options. Notably, the Super Pocket UI introduces the innovative “Easy Mode” feature, which lowers the difficulty of games. This ensures that players can overcome challenging levels or allows younger gamers to enjoy the games without encountering excessive difficulty spikes.
Evercade Cartridge Compatibility
In addition to the built-in games, the Super Pockets are fully compatible with Evercade Cartridges. These cartridges contain legally licensed games from multiple publishers and can be inserted into the Super Pocket through a cartridge port located on the rear of the console. With support for the complete library of cartridges, Super Pocket owners can expand their gaming library to over 500 games, providing endless entertainment options.
