Little over a month ago, GameMT introduced the E3 Vigor, a horizontal handheld gaming device. At that time, we noted that it could compete with devices like the ZPG A1 Unicorn, Powkiddy RGB30, and Anbernic RG CubeXX (which is currently priced at $79.99 on Amazon) due to its 1:1 display. The E3 Vigor was showcased in three different colors and was expected to be released soon.

New Discoveries

Recently, Retro Gaming with Deadfred highlighted a new GameMT E3 gaming handheld, but this one does not carry the ‘Vigor’ name. It is important to differentiate this model from the E3 Vigor, as the GameMT E3 does not include the dual joysticks that are a feature of the E3 Vigor. Furthermore, there are no start or select buttons present. Still, the device keeps the 1:1 display and features an eight-way d-pad along with in-line triggers.

Unique Features

Oddly enough, GameMT has also added a cartridge slot in this model. As stated by Retro Gaming with Deadfred, the intention behind this slot is to allow the use of Game Boy Advance cartridges, which would appear quite unusual on a 1:1 display. The video provided illustrates that the GameMT E3 has top-mounted ports, including dual USB Type-C connections, a microSD card slot, and micro HDMI. Unfortunately, details about its release are still unknown at this time.
