DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) Bummer, but honestly the timing is better for me since I'm in the middle of moving and starting a new job. But Analogue is legit terrible when it comes to PR and customer service. Edited July 3, 2020 by DoctorEncore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet some of them would have upgraded had they known the changes to the console. I am an original owner. I thought some extra features might happen. So I took the gamble and bought the final run as well. Worst case, they were the same and I would sell one of the consoles. I would think most did not do what I did though.

Whichever you end up selling, you'll more than likely make back your money and end up w/ a free NT Mini so... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, its not so much the price I dont like just the fact that they make it so limited. Ah well, win some lose some. Let me know when your AVS is for sale haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearcat-Doug | 5,104 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I guess the Super NT won't be restocked anytime soon either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICrappedMyPants | 302 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 They did trademark Analogue 8. I wonder if that would be an NES down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think they are going to restock at some point. But it may be a while. 1 hour ago, Tulpa said: I have to think at this point if they were going to do one, they'd have done it by now. Yeah, I don't see it happening. Despite being tight-lipped about future plans, it seems like they prefer to move forward with new things. The Nt Mini felt like an angry concession more than an admission to demand. The only thing that doesn't add up is all the work they did to redo the FPGA and add so many features for a single production run. So... maybe???

I was hoping to avoid having to get a Super NT on ebay when they are going for $400+. I'll probably just stick with my SNES 1 chip console and HDMI upscaler cable for now.

Deadeye | 1,595 Homebrew Team · Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Pocket sales? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,929 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 If that is Pocket sales, I'm curious how well that thing will end up doing. I know I'm being kind of picky about it, but I think they're really hosing buyers on how that one is setup. $200 just for the handheld, and really for it to get every feature out of it intended you need the dock which isn't free either for TV play. Then if you're a handheld player if you want to run those others, they're all polymega pricing them out for a fee for each. I could see it getting up there with their NES system which is a massive turn off. I so want it, but the price seems a bit too much to bare.

DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 Hey all. Not quite back to VGS yet, but felt it was my civic duty to update this thread. Not sure if preorders start today or just an announcement on preorders or something completely different, but wanted everyone to have a fair shake. 1100 EST! Good luck! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadeye | 1,595 Homebrew Team · Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 There is a lot of accessories, so pay attention to what comes in the box for the items you buy, to avoid buying extra stuff you don't need. Pocket: Analogue Pocket [black] USB-C cable Dock: Analogue Dock 18W Fast charging Worldwide USB-C Power Supply [100-240v, 50/60hz, USA/JPN plug-type] HDMI cable USB-C cable So if you buy Pocket + Dock, in the way I am reading everything, you don't need to buy USB-C or charging brick. The music composing with midi cables is pretty cool for chiptune artists. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,721 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Interested, but damn, it looks like I will be in for over $400 with the accessories I want to get once you figure in shipping. Still though, I think I'm going for it. Edit: I didn't realize that two of the adapters will not be part of the initial pre-order. So that will at least save me $60 next month. But regardless, I want to get those once they are available. Edited July 27, 2020 by TDIRunner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
