The main gimmick of the Pico is the form (and format) of the console itself: A plastic clamshell that resembles a laptop computer, in a time when practically no one owned even a desktop computer yet. I bet that most people don’t even remember that the console existed!

And I want to see everything related to this amazing series, so I dived into Ecco’s only appearance on a relatively unknown console, during the Genesis’ lifetime: Ecco Jr. The Ecco series seems as endless as the vast ocean, with always something more to discover and review.
