    There are so many awesome devices to experience classic games on now its mind blowing. Wasn’t aware of this one. Like that it has a docking station for big screen play.

      Yeah it’s a really nice handheld. It’s Fpga based that can play from carts and the screen is gorgeous for GB and SNES.

    Useless tidbit: Marge has bunny ears when she gets shocked in that dream level. This is because an idea Matt had was that Marge was going to be a rabbit, hiding the ears in her hair.

    Analogue Pocket looks awesome. But I wish they have a version without cartridge support to make the device cost a bit less.

      I don’t think that would change the price much. The slot itself is probably only a few pennies and you can’t get cheaper FPGAs without reducing the cores the device is capable of playing. Adding another SKU would just make it more expensive and harder to stock.

        Makes sense. But somehow it hurts to buy such a device when I don’t have cartridges :(
