After more than a year of delays, Analogue’s modern take on the Nintendo 64 is finally on its way to customers.
The Analogue 3D will start shipping on 18 November, marking the end of what’s been a painfully long wait for retro gaming fans.
Analogue quietly updated the console’s product page this week with the new shipping date. On Reddit, early buyers are already reporting shipping confirmation emails popping up in their inboxes. Others say they’re still waiting, but at least this time it appears the process is actually moving forward.
If you were hoping to grab one, though, you’re out of luck for now. The Analogue 3D is sold out, and there’s currently no option to place a new order.
For those who did manage to secure a unit, the Analogue 3D promises a faithful yet modernised way to replay classic N64 games. It’s built to run original Nintendo 64 cartridges while outputting gameplay in 4K resolution, with added perks like save states and support for wireless controllers.
Analogue also teamed up with 8BitDo to design a matching Bluetooth N64-style gamepad — this time ditching the original controller’s infamous three-pronged design for something far more comfortable.
The Analogue 3D comes in black or white, each priced at $250, and those early preorders should start arriving before the holidays. The console was originally scheduled to ship over the summer before being delayed yet again, but if this latest update holds, the modern N64 revival might finally make its way into living rooms after all.
