The Evercade VS-R gamepad is used to control games on the Evercade VS-R retro console and on a personal computer. This controller transmits button presses to the gaming system via a solid wired connection. The 3m cable provides plenty of room to sit in front of your monitor or TV screen. The connection does not require any additional drivers and works as soon as you plug it into the USB port. The design meets the requirements for comfortable holding during longer sessions of older game titles. The package contains one of these game controllers.
The controller takes its design inspiration from classic gaming systems from the era of 8-bit and 16-bit consoles. The ergonomic shape corresponds to a traditional control layout that suits fans of classic video games. The body shape and button layout are a nod to historical gaming systems and contribute to easy handling. The controls respond to presses without unnecessary delay, making it easier to play original arcade games.
Connection to the gaming device is via a standard USB interface for compatibility with both the console and a personal computer. The 3m cable removes the need to sit in close proximity to the monitor or TV screen. The long cable prevents the connector from being accidentally pulled out of the port during sharp movements in intense gaming sessions. The controller draws power directly from the connected gaming device via the cable.
The controller has a total of ten buttons, which cover all the standard functions for retro games. The D-pad is complemented by action buttons on the front and top triggers for your index fingers. The ten-button layout facilitates quick reactions in action, fighting and arcade titles. Each button has a clearly defined press with physical feedback. This layout fully meets the requirements of the game titles on the physical cartridges for Evercade systems.
The device works with personal computers running Windows via a classic USB interface. When connected to a PC, it functions as a standard game controller without the need to install additional software. The wired USB interface provides a stable, input-lag-free signal, which is important for precise jumping in platformers. The controller thus expands the possibilities of playing emulated games and modern indie titles directly on a computer monitor.
The Evercade VS-R console supports connecting up to four of these controllers simultaneously for co-op gaming. This lets players play together on one screen in games with local multiplayer support. Four separate USB slots on the console body are used for the direct connection of additional game controllers without the need to purchase hubs. This system makes it easy to organise game nights with family or friends with classic sports and racing titles.
The game controller does not require its own battery, as it is powered directly from the USB port of the connected device. This eliminates the need to charge or replace batteries in the middle of a match. Power is supplied via the included micro-USB cable (5V, 2A) to power the entire retro console. The console itself uses a 1.5GHz processor, 4GB of internal memory and an integrated Wi-Fi module for system updates, while the video output works at 1080p HDMI resolution.
