RH | 4,924 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 I was about to post this if no one else hadn't. I'm quite torn about this one. I'm seriously thinking I'm going to have to save up for this. I think some of you have had varying opinions on their console hardware, but I've been so happy with my Analogue Pocket, the build quality and the attention to detail, this is very enticing for me. I tend to hate playing most games meant for a CRT on an HD panel, but Analogue has done such a remarkable job with their filters for the Game Boy/Game Gear, I really want to trust them with this one.

a3quit4s | 4,106 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 (edited) 4k though not even just 1080p. N64 still has the least amount of playable games and the games are playable all have remakes already no? Would have been happier with Duo news honestly Edited October 16, 2023 by a3quit4s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcgamer | 4,730 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 So as a guy who only runs games using a CRT, please explain this to me. What benefit do I get from buying this? Not trying to be an ass, just trying to understand, as I reckon most folks here use CRTs when playing old games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's been questioning Analogue quality? They are best in class for aftermarket console hardware IMO. I'm pretty sure that is a popular opinion all round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mega SG and Super NT I own were 189.99 each plus shipping. I'd happily pay that again for this, or more if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that is a popular opinion all round. Eh... I feel like I recall seeing some shade being thrown around here before but the more I think about it, that might have been about the limited supply of the original NT (or whatever the NES version is called) and just how expensive it was at launch. 3 minutes ago, a3quit4s said: Seems like a waste of money really which is out of place for you, since you are very particular about where your funds go in a gaming sense 2 minutes ago, OptOut said: Having a brand new, factory fresh FPGA design that can play US, Japanese and PAL games all in system is enough to sell it to me alone. And, this is coming from someone who already owns TWO UltraHDMI modded systems. Yeah, I love original hardware and I'll prefer it 95% of the time with only a few exceptions. But with that said, consistency and reliability is starting to be a big win for me. It looks like the controller is going for the brawler layout and, I mean... I hate to see that but I'm not offended. I wish they'd make two controller options, but that would just be too expensive. If Analogue made an N64 FPGA device with an N64 controller of the same quality, then I'd definitely be in. I'll also probably keep this plugged into a CRT but I also like the option of taking it upstairs for family game nights and having the ability to plug it straight into the HDTV and not have to worry about those absolutely wretched interlacing artifacts.

Considering the day and expendable income, I could drop $250 for this device and if the controllers where what I'd want, I'd maybe even consider $50 each. I'm weird, and I'd want 12ft cables over wireless, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess you should explain your reasons to FC so he understands the benefits? The Analogue systems themselves are fantastic. The ability, built-in, to stick an SD card into the consoles to play ROMs is great and eliminates the need for a cartridge dedicated to that function (save yourself what, $100-200 on that purchase?). The fact that if I wanted to I can remove the console from my DAC and take it to a friends place or my workplace and BOOM - it's a Nintendo party with every game on the system available in this little box I can carry around? Sweet. It's a whole package and at least insofar as the consoles themselves are concerned, the absolute highest quality available for playing retro games. Top of the line, bar none. 3 minutes ago, OptOut said: Has the price been revealed yet? The Mega SG and Super NT I own were 189.99 each plus shipping.
