The upcoming Super Pocket Rare Edition handheld, set to launch in June 2026 for $69.99, will feature the classic game Banjo-Kazooie as its marquee title. Developed by HyperMegaTech! in collaboration with Rare Ltd., this device showcases a collection of 14 beloved games, including titles from the Battletoads series and Conker's Pocket Tales, primarily from 8- and 16-bit eras.
Despite the unconventional D-pad controls, HyperMegaTech! has optimized Banjo-Kazooie for a seamless handheld experience. Additionally, the Super Pocket is designed to be compatible with Evercade cartridges, allowing users to expand their gaming library with collections from iconic developers like Taito, NeoGeo, and Atari.
Preorders for the Super Pocket Rare Edition are currently open, reflecting strong interest in this nostalgic gaming device.
