What's surprising to me is how much battery life dropped on new iterations of old systems, like the game boy micro. Not at all sure why the evercade was thrown in.

The Gameboy micro was as the name implies very tiny, so it didn't fit a big battery. Backlight is also a very notorious battery drain, so combined with the small battery it's not that surprising.
