C64 collection chips in on Evercade

Having focused on consoles and more recently arcade releases, there has been an obvious gap in the Evercade roster, especially as it has dealt with the likes of CodeMasters, the Bitmap Brothers and other names from the home computer era. 

Starting to fill that gap is the first in a new line of cartridges for Evercade systems. Impossible Mission and Summer Games lead the way, with plenty of new games to discover in a 14-game collection. Imagine, no loading times or mangled cassette tapes, no slowly-appearing screens, actually that's kind of sad. 


Picked out with tasteful blue packaging, this new series starts with THE C64 Collection 1. with officially licensed games from Retro Games Ltd. Just the 14, which is a bit feeble given the teeny storage they consume, but still plenty to be getting on with, and thousands of Spectrum, Amstrad and likely 16-bit system games to follow (Defender of the Crown, Dungeon Master and Oids, please!). 

The line-up includes:

  • Alleykat
  • Battle Valley
  • Gateway to Apshai
  • Impossible Mission
  • Iridis Alpha
  • Jumpman
  • Lee
  • Marauder
  • The Movie Monster Game
  • Street Sports Baseball
  • Stormlord
  • Subterranea
  • Summer Games
  • Winter Games
 

Pre-orders go up at the end of July with the games arriving in October, adding to a pretty packed release list with this latest branch for the platform.
