Hyper Mega Tech FG-TAPK-HMT-EFIGS Handheld Gaming Device, Green

Product Information

Other than that, they’re identical. The inputs are all the same, the screen is the same, and all of the internals are the same too. It’s just the outer shell and the pre-installed games which make them distinct from each other, so it’s not like you’re going to be in a situation where one is outright better than the other. Your mileage with the 2.8” (~7cm) screen is also likely to vary dramatically depending on the quality of your eyesight - especially if you want to experience titles at their intended aspect ratio with the Pixel Perfect display mode. If this is applicable to you, you would be much better off considering larger options like the Evercade EXP instead. The overall design is obviously very reminiscent of the Nintendo Game Boy but with some welcome modern refinements. The smooth, rounded corners feel great in the palms of your hands and allow for comfortable playing sessions. Furthermore, the D-pad is very responsive and the face buttons are also excellent with a springy tactile feel that is absolutely perfect for button mashing. With the Miyoo Mini, it’s a lovely device but I’d argue at 3.5 inches it’s too small to really game comfortably on.As for the RG3XX from Anbernic, it’s the same size as the Miyoo Mini, so the same problems that plague that system exist on the RG3XX. Which version is better? That all comes down to what types of games you prefer. The Capcom version is more fighting-focused games, but the Tatio offering has more adventure-style titles.

In-game, the menu option brings up save, load, the specific game’s controls, the display options, reset, and quit.You’d think that some of these games could have been swapped out for maybe some slightly newer games to demonstrate what these devices are capable of a bit more. I get that the focus of this particular run is on arcade games, but this almost seems like a shame to be limited in this way when there’s so much more that could have been showcased. Is There An Option For Multiplayer? While we’re on the subject of audio, let’s dig into the speakers. They’re fine. Just fine. For the price, I wasn’t expecting something as vibrant as the ROG Ally, but they do the job. At higher volumes they’re insufferable, and they don’t have a particularly strong range – audio layers sound almost mushed together. But, again, this is a budget handheld we’re talking about. Compared with the RetroMini, these speakers are great for the price point. Controls. As well as featuring different game selections, they also look distinct too, with both versions having a different colour scheme which not only makes it easy to differentiate them but also adds in a collectible element. It’s clearly inspired by the Game Boy, having a vertical orientation, d-pad on the left, four action buttons on the right, start and select on the bottom and a menu button in the centre at the top. I can imagine that if they do more of these in the future, you could get a whole bunch of them and they would look awesome on display. It kinda reminds me of all the different versions of the Game Boy Color.

The 2.8in screen is big enough to play without squinting – and it’s bright, with vibrant colours. However, the 320x240px resolution means games that output more pixels in one or more dimensions end up blurry, squished by way of interpolation. Well, they’re a line of handheld systems which each come with a selection of pre-loaded games. The first run of systems feature two devices; a Taito device having 17 pre-installed games and a Capcom device with 12 pre-installed games. Webster, Andrew. "This cute retro handheld comes in Capcom and Taito flavors". The Verge . Retrieved 3 November 2023. Obviously, none of these games would be particularly demanding so it’s probably not pushing the hardware very much at all, but I’m still happy to see everything working smoothly and I’ve got no complaints in this area.Which device you prefer is going to be entirely subjective, are you more of a fan of Taito games like Bubble Bobble or do you want to play some Capcom classics like Mega Man? The choice is yours! Cost & Build Quality

Onto those built-in titles, then, and several of Capcom’s will resonate with anyone who’s been following videogames since the 1980s. Eleven of the dozen collected here are the arcade versions, with Mega Man coming from the NES. Why was this even included when it completely defeats the purpose of the game when you’re just moving a cursor around on the screen? This is an absolutely amazing way of introducing someone to retro gaming or retro emulation devices. Every element of it from the sleek design and the minimal UI has been crafted so well. Another surprising detail is that the sound quality is actually really good here. It’s only a single speaker in the middle of the device, but you’ve got a good amount of audio clarity.HyperMegaTech, like all Blaze Entertainment products, features officially licensed retro games direct from the publishers. For example on the Taito one, you’ve got Operation Wolf, a light gun game which is obviously supposed to be played with… well… a light gun. There are so many handheld emulation devices on the market right now, some of which are fairly powerful and able to play games up to the best PS2 games and others having unique form factors which make them appealing simply for having a interesting design.

Although I do actually think the games on offer on both of the devices are pretty good, I do have to question certain inclusions.I’m not 100 percent sold on the easy mode option just yet. Street Fighter II, for example, doesn’t have a difficulty menu, and some fights really spike in difficulty, even with easy mode turned on. Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you. Over Capcom way, you get 1942, 1943, 1944: The Loop Master, Bionic Commando, Captain Commando, Final Fight, Forgotten Worlds, Ghouls ’n Ghosts, Mega Man, Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, Strider, and Wolf of the Battlefield: MERCS.
