The Capcom Super Pocket Starter Bundle, slated for release on October 22, 2026, combines a compact retro handheld with three physical Evercade-compatible cartridges to deliver a library of 48 classic games. Priced for hardware enthusiasts and portable retro gamers, the unit features a 2.8-inch IPS display and USB-C charging.
Hardware Architecture and Display Specs of the Capcom Super Pocket
The upcoming Capcom Super Pocket Starter Bundle retains this underlying physical footprint while vastly expanding the out-of-the-box software library.
According to specifications from Collectors-Junkies, the handheld packs a 2.8-inch IPS display running at a native resolution of 320 by 240 pixels.
Power delivery is handled via a modern USB-C interface, feeding an internal lithium-ion battery engineered to exceed four hours of continuous play.
Physical Cartridge Ecosystem and Pre-Installed Software
Unlike software-locked devices that require Wi-Fi access or proprietary digital storefronts, this bundle relies entirely on physical media. The hardware ships with twelve Capcom arcade and console classics embedded directly into the device flash memory. This internal lineup includes 1942, 1943, 1944: The Loop Master, Bionic Commando, Captain Commando, Final Fight, Forgotten Worlds, Ghouls ’n Ghosts, Mega Man, Wolf of the Battlefield: Mercs, Street Fighter II‘: Hyper Fighting, and Strider.
Beyond the onboard ROMs, the starter bundle includes three physical Evercade-format cartridges, bringing another 36 games into the ecosystem:
- Activision Collection 1 (15 Games): Beamrider, Crackpots, Demon Attack, Enduro, Fishing Derby, Freeway, Grand Prix, MegaMania, Pitfall!, Private Eye, River Raid, Sky Jinks, Space Shuttle: A Journey Into Space, Starmaster, and Tennis.
- Rare Collection 1 (12 Games): Jetpac, Lunar Jetman, Atic Atac, Sabre Wulf, Underwurlde, Knight Lore, Gunfright, R.C. Pro-Am, Cobra Triangle, Battletoads, Battletoads Arcade, and Conker’s Pocket Tales.
- Taito Arcade 1 Collection (9 Games): Bubble Bobble, Space Invaders, The Legend of Kage, Growl, Don Doko Don, Chack ’n Pop, Pirate Pete, Raimais, and Colony 7.
Crucially, all three bundled cartridges operate independently of the handheld itself, maintaining full cross-compatibility with any standard Evercade hardware device currently on the market.
