Sure thing, let’s dive into this… where do I begin? Ah, right, Analogue’s been teasing us with their new take on the Nintendo 64. But, ahem, surprise surprise! It’s delayed. Again. This time they’re blaming tariffs. Whatever that means. So, if you’ve been counting the days, it’s now “late August” — but who’s keeping track?
Analogue threw out this gem on social media: no extra charges for you folks who’ve preordered. I guess that’s nice? Maybe.
Delays. Yes, more of them. If anyone’s itching to cancel, Analogue’s cool with that. But let’s be honest: most have had their money tied up so long, you’d think it’s some sort of investment. Will prices jump on general release? Probably. It’s a wild world out there.
Oh, and in case you forgot, this console is all about revisiting those old N64 experiences. Fully compatible with cartridges from all regions. Can’t forget that 4K HDMI output — sounds fancy, right? Plus, it’s got that whole FPGA thing going on. Basically, it’s not just another emulation box. I think that’s supposed to be impressive.
Then there’s the no-ROMs stance. Real cartridges only, folks. They’ve got this lineup of previous hits, like the ‘Pocket’ for Game Boy enthusiasts. If you’re into retro gaming, you’ve probably heard of them.
