Introducing Evercade, a "brand new handheld console with unique multi-game retro cartridges".

A brand new games console is about to burst onto the scene and, while it's still very early days, it looks like the Nintendo Switch might be about to receive a hybrid system rival.

Introducing Evercade, a "brand new handheld console with unique multi-game retro cartridges". At present, details on the new system are relatively slim, although an FAQ section has been posted on its website to provide a little more info.

The console apparently already has "several publishers" on board, with three soon to be announced; will "play games from the most popular consoles of the 8bit and 16bit era"; has a rechargeable battery which will last for 4-5 hours; has a focus on "quality over quantity", and can connect to your TV via HDMI. No internet connection is required - the system has a retro, 'old school' approach - and it will feature a screen which is 4.3 inches in size (the same size as a PSP).

One answer in the FAQ section explains why the console is being produced:
