VG Pocket Max

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The VG Pocket Max is a handheld dedicated console distributed by Pelican Accessories. The system contains 75 games, which are mostly modified NES games. It has a 2.5" backlit color LCD screen (which is very easily scratched, as mentioned by many reviewers of the product)^{[citation needed]}, four buttons (plus a reset and a power button), a directional pad, volume control, a single speaker, a headphone jack, and a TV-out port.

Strangely, although made by Pelican Accessories, it does not have the company's name on the system itself. Instead it has a sticker on the back crediting Performance Designed Products.

[edit] Other versions

In the UK a handheld was made called the Gamespower 50. The Gamespower 50 contained almost all the games (with names changed. Games such as Bird Droppings was Birdies Nest) and looked exactly the same except different color.

A plug n' play version was made by Dream Gear and was the same as the Gamespower 50. The plug n' play closely looks like a Sega Dreamcast controller but there is not much of a resemblance. This version is toward more racing games. This has 30 to 40 games in it (far less than the other two systems)

Both the Gamespower 50 and the plug n' play version don't have a selection menu like the VG Pocket Max.
