Once Time, if you want to play Neo Jio Games, it took serious financial investment. The original Neo Jio AES (Advanced Entertainment System) Home Console was launched in 1991 at $ 650, which was equivalent to about $ 1,535 in 2025. The game will be sold around $ 200, around $ 472 today.
Hook for an emerging underground of gamers, it was that AES was similar to the MVS (multi-video) coin-up cabinets of the manufacturer at a hardware level, which means that the home-played sports arcades were unaware of the people. If you wanted that authentic experience, you actually paid the price.
How time has changed. Now you can get some of the greatest Neo Jio Games of all time for pocket money. The Super Pocket Neo Jio version packs in 14 titles, built in an ultra-portable handheld console for less than the price of a contemporary “Triple A” game. It is a pleasure for indifferent players or those who want to experience some true gaming classics, but there are many compromises to swallow before enjoying it.

The Neo Jio version is the latest entry in the ongoing line of Super Pocket Handheld, each focusing on the title of a classic developer or publisher, created by retro gaming specialist Blaze Entertainment. If that name rings a bell, it is because it is the same manufacturer Evergreen hardware systemWhich includes handheld, home console and mini arcade cabinets, all of which are associated with universal support for physical evil game cartridges.
Although Blaze’s “Hyper Mega Tech!” Has been released under! The brand, super pocket is also compatible with those trains, so at a glance it may seem to be another hardware variation yet, a vertical for maximum retro clots.
However, it is quite different to use super pockets. It is shorter than Evercade Handheld, 125 mm long, 78 mm wide, and 25 mm thick -your phone is probably larger. This low height, combined with its vertical orientation, means that it can feel very small in large hands.
It is surprisingly appointed with inputs, however, with a clearly defined directions with a well-responsible de-pad, which ensures that it looks luxurious under the thumb, four face buttons (A, B, X, Y), and L1/L2/R1/R2 “shoulders” shoulders from back. They do not appear to play for Neo Jio Games, but they ensure compatibility with sports on other evergreen vehicles that may be required – although once again, the small size of the unit makes these transferred shoulder buttons a little difficult to keep their fingers in a useful way.
