I wanna replay my old GBA carts, the Analogue Pocket is apparently kind of a luxury GB/GBC/GBA with a very nice screen. Is it worth getting one if I like those games?
>>
>>12498098
You already made this thread on /v/ faggot, if you want one, get one.

I love mine, but the screen resolution, filters, and control setup prioritises DMG carts. GBA compatibility is kind of an extra along with the open FPGA cores.
You'd be better served with an SP, or DS.
>>
>>12498098
No.
FPGA would be nice if it was 100% reverse engineered/perfect replica of the hardware's functionality, but as it stands it's just emulation.
>>
half the price and better in every way

Dumb shill

One of the lowest ways to experience a game.

I have it

If you have physical carts, it's great. If you're gonna use it with things like a GameCube adapter or other GBAs, it's great.

If you're gonna use it to emulate, you're better off with something else. There are other cores, but at that point you can save money with something cheaper that's just as good.

IMO the ergonomics are shit. Hard edges and a weird weight balance. Handheld layouts have been solved for years and people are hung up on the retarded Gameboy layout.

Oh, I forgot to mention that not all cores support sleep mode. GB/C/A do, and I think NES does, but SNES doesn't.

Ironic.

I bought the white one. The screen never ceases to impress me, I have lots of NES, SNES and Genesis games on it and its very fun to explore new games. It is not comfortable to hold for long periods of time. I was playing Kickle Cubicle and Kick Master on a flight for two hours and my hands started hurting. Perfect for RPGs and maybe like hour long bursts max of action games.

>>12498098
if money is no object to you, the screen is very nice. i dont love the build quality. the buttons are not all that great for example.
>>12498137
worse screen, even worse buttons. can play more consoles. much cheaper
>>
>>12498909
>worse buttons
absolutely not, at least the six button model is way comfier
>worse screen
they're both great screens, highly debatable. I like the RPCs more.
>>
>>12498920
all the retroid consoles have loud clicky buttons which are terrible and if you like that you are a fag
the screen on the analogue has higher pixel density. you might prefer the other one, because youre a contrarian faggot, but you would be wrong.
>>
>>12498941
and youre an NPC who just parrots what he heard on retro game cucks. I actually own both of the handhelds. and no, the buttons arent loud at all.
>muh pixel density
true but you failed to mention how its also a smaller screen and is IPS compared to RPC's OLED which is far superior. The contrarian faggot is (You).

You complain in every thread in /vr faggot, if you want a thread about a different topic, make one

I like mine, but be warned that the dpad is not great. It's not awful, but for something with such a high price point, I was hoping for better. The screen is fantastic, and I like that it supports link cable.
