Sabertooth Posted February 2 Report Posted February 2 Wi-Fi Issues: I tried to update my Evercade VS today and it would not connect to my router. Last month, I updated my router to a dual band mesh system. All of my devices work on it. The VS saw the network but would error when connecting. I visited the Evercade Discord and asked about the issue. Members there said some users reported problems with dual band, but that if I turned off 5GHz, it might work. They also recommended a factory reset. I tried these solutions without success. Finally, it struck me that I could try my phone's mobile hotspot. This immediately connected and I was able to update the system. However, the VS will still not connect to my router. Sharing this here in case others experience a similar issue.

RickR Posted February 2 Report Posted February 2 I had a similar issue with (of all things) the Xbox 360. The only solution that worked for me was to add a guest network on the router. The Xbox connected to that just fine. I do not know if this will work with your Evercade VS, but it may be worth a try. Sabertooth, DegasElite and Justin 2 1
socrates63 Posted April 11 Report Posted April 11 Do folks think Blaze will release a VS Refresh this year? I know I can connect my EXP to a display, but the appeal of using a dedicated controller is a strong appeal of the VS. DegasElite and RickR 2
RickR Posted April 11 Report Posted April 11 (edited) I believe so! I don't know for sure since I don't have a VS or EXP....but I know those two have a "Library" app that shows all of the titles released, and that they've just updated a couple of those to "Legacy" status. On-line release notes don't show a date, but I suspect the latest one is very recent. Edited April 11 by RickR DegasElite and socrates63 2

New cost reduced "R" models just announced to mixed response in the Evercadeverse. RickR and socrates63 1 1

I was only looking for a visual refresh, so I'm happy with the VS-R. I don't know enough about it to be grumpy about anything yet 😂 Sabertooth 1

I guess looking for a more premium update? 🤷♂️ I think the refresh and lower price make perfect business sense to attract new users and offer more potential value to the existing user base contemplating a hardware refresh or upgrade.

I've seen comments from folks that waited for the black limited edition EXP who are upset that the color on the new model appears to closely resemble the LE model. Also, as @socrates63 said, some folks were hoping for a more premium update or even peripherals- like a joystick- and are underwhelmed by the news. Its great for new folks just getting into the ecosystem. Not a lot here for you if you already have a VS or EXP. socrates63 and RickR 2
RickR Posted April 16 Report Posted April 16 (edited) Yes, I'm seeing it now on Facebook. Some serious sour grapes! Oh well. I like it. I'm sure others will too Edited April 16 by RickR Sabertooth and socrates63 2
socrates63 Posted April 17 Report Posted April 17 Blaze just announced (via email) that the Tomb Raider Collection is the pack-in for the new R series hardware. Sweet! I was planning to buy the cartridge separately, but now that it's a pack-in, this saves me some money. I am definitely going to pre-order the VS-R. Justin 1
