The Neo Geo Super Pocket is finally back in stock

HyperMegaTech's limited-edition Neo Geo Super Pocket is back in stock at Funstock. The portable handheld originally sold out shortly after its initial launch. Many SNK fans were left empty-handed. Now another batch of the MVS-styled consoles is available for purchase.

I wrote about this little machine when it first dropped, and I completely missed the boat on actually buying one. The initial run vanished faster than I expected. The company capped the production at 3,000 units total. I am not sure if this restock is the final allocation of that 3,000 or a second production run. The stock is live right now on the HyperMegaTech website.

The Super Pocket is a vertical handheld built around a 2.8-inch IPS screen. It charges via USB-C and has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. The battery lasts around four hours per charge. It is a simple device designed for quick arcade sessions rather than marathon RPG playthroughs.

Native 320x240 resolution

That screen resolution is the most interesting part of the spec sheet. A 320x240 panel is a perfect match for the Neo Geo MVS hardware. Original SNK arcade games ran at a native resolution of 320x224. Playing them on this screen means you get razor-sharp integer scaling with just eight pixels of black space at the top and bottom. You do not have to deal with the blurry bilinear filtering or uneven pixel shimmer that plagues SNK ports on higher-resolution modern displays.

The console comes preloaded with 14 arcade games. The lineup includes heavy hitters like Metal Slug X, Samurai Shodown II, and Fatal Fury Special. It also has some excellent deeper cuts. Blazing Star is one of the best horizontal shoot-em-ups on the platform. Top Hunter: Roddy & Cathy is a fantastic two-plane action platformer that rarely gets the attention it deserves. Shock Troopers: 2nd Squad and The Last Blade round out a very solid list.

Playing fighting games on a tiny handheld is always a gamble. Samurai Shodown II and Fatal Fury Special require precise diagonal inputs for their special moves. The Super Pocket uses a circular D-pad design that handles sweeping motions surprisingly well. It is not quite a clicky microswitch joystick, but it gets the job done for casual play.

The Evercade cartridge slot

The built-in games are just the starting point. The back of the Super Pocket has a cartridge slot that accepts standard Evercade games. This turns a dedicated SNK novelty into a fully functional Evercade handheld.

Blaze Entertainment is the parent company behind HyperMegaTech. They have built a massive library of physical cartridges over the last few years. As of April 2026, the Evercade ecosystem has expanded to include over 80 cartridges containing more than 700 games. You can plug in collections from Data East, Irem, Toaplan, and modern indie developers. The cartridges usually cost around $24.99 each.

The Evercade compatibility is what justifies the purchase. Buying a dedicated handheld for 14 games is a tough sell in 2026. Having a pocket-sized device that plays the entire Evercade library makes it an actual platform. You can swap from Metal Slug X to a cartridge full of classic Commodore 64 games in seconds.

I missed the first wave

Having actual MVS arcade games in a device the size of a Game Boy Pocket is fantastic. The MVS-inspired color scheme is a nice touch. It uses the classic red, white, and blue button layout with a dark grey shell.

Funstock is the exclusive retailer for this specific edition. Once these 3,000 units are gone, the Neo Geo variant will likely disappear for good. The standard Capcom and Taito Super Pockets are easier to find. This SNK version is the one to grab if you care about arcade history.
