2 Weeks With The Analogue Pocket - Is It Worth Buying???
After an intense couple weeks with the Analogue Pocket, I have learned a lot about the console! I found out what's great about it and I found some glaring issues that hopefully will be addressed. Analogue, I hope you’re listening. I also go over what I see as the future of Analogue and their Pocket device.
I spent a lot of time with the accessories which I also go over. I’ll review the screen protector, the clear hard case, Game Gear adaptor, and the Dock.
► So here's what you will find in this video:
► 0:00 Intro
► 1:56 Accessory Review: Screen Protector
► 2:38 Accessory Review: Clear Hard Case
► 3:40 Accessory Review: Game Gear Adaptor
► 4:46 Accessory Review: Dock
► 7:50 Analogue Pocket Review
► 14:23 The Future and Analogue and the Pocket
► 16:15 Should You Buy The Analogue Pocket?
► 17:44 Final Thoughts

Note: The nice thing about these screen protector kits is that you get more than 1 screen protector in case you don’t install the first one well. However, it should be noted that these appear to be film protectors instead of Glass like the Analogue one. I also haven’t personally tried these out myself.

I'm so glad to see that you actually spent time with the product before reviewing it and laid out genuine and meaningful criticisms, unlike most other creators in this space that just rushed their review out on the day of release. This is the kind of thing that lets me know that you're really interested in getting good information out to your viewers instead of pandering for views by trying to be the first to upload a review of the product, so thank you for that. You are what content creators should aspire to be Tito.

If you unplug the dock from power and HDMI, the same sound persists. This tells me it’s just the USB-C port pins releasing from the connector on the dock and less an electrical discharge.

@fryke 2 года назад

If you want to, you _can_ actually delete most apps from your smartphone and just use the Analogue Pocket, a modded GB(C/P/A) or emulation device for gaming to achieve the main goal. Arguably even with better feel than some mobile phone that tries (and fails) to combine gaming inputs with either a keyboard or touch interface.

@stephendallasdraws2929 2 года назад

@@fryke I don't really play apps/games on my phone, but I do like the old days of just carrying my Gameboy around haha. I think what I mean by "attention economy" is that we seem to all have 20-30 games on whatever devices we play. But when you stick to carts, you have to carefully choose one at a time and enjoy it more thoroughly because you have to physically swap games to do something different.

Great video and thanks for reviewing. I was having second thoughts on this pocket due to price and also since I already own modified hand held devices. However, knowing that I can play turbo, neo pocket, game gear and lynx on tv makes the device worth buying. In the long run it would save users money from buying separate boards that allows you to play e.g neo geo pocket on tv.

That shot in your intro of the screen protector is so good. Awesome taste man. My dock disappointed me we I pulled the Pocket out, but not perfectly straight up, and now the back of it is just permanently scrapped.... I really have a problem with that. Why is the dock not designed in a more conscientious way so I don't have to stop and remove the system with great focus. I do absolutely love it, but I could list some grievances to be sure. I would REALLY love a GBA shaped version of it for the L&R buttons, and the cartages need more of a cradle than what the Pocket offers. Anyway, thanks for the balanced video, I completely agree with your pros and cons!

The updates that have come out since this video are great too, I easily installed several community made cores to play SNES, Genesis, arcade games, etc. Sucks that stock has still been an issue, but apparently the latest pre order for the new color variants actually went over pretty well, actually lasting for several hours this time, letting a bunch of people who couldn't snag one before finally get their hands on a Pocket.

@Shendue 2 года назад

@sswpp8908 2 года назад

The chip shortage is a huge problem. If Analog scrounges up the parts to manufacture more this year I'd be very surprised. The two Intel Cyclone FPGAs used in the design are completely unavailable from any supplier as far as I can tell. In fact nearly all of the Cyclone FPGA catalog atmre out of stock. Suppliers don't care about small outfits like Analog. They prioritize major manufacturers and critical technologies.

@xCheezMuffnx 2 года назад

Hey Tito, I really appreciate your terrific review of the Analogue Pocket. I'd love a companion video of alternatives to the Pocket like you suggested. I'm definitely interested in the machine, but the one thing that's preventing me from investing in it is game cartridges. Since I don't have any old carts lying around buying aftermarket carts can get extremely expensive, or if I opt for the cheaper end then they're just reproductions anyway. So, for me it's trying to determine if I'd rather just get a flash cart and use it on my modded GBA, or invest in a higher end emulation only device.

I'm kind of glad I went with the black model. The crop bars when using GBA games is much less obvious when they blend with the rest of the case. I am happy with the system, but it needs a jailbreak.

I loveeeee my analogue pocket so much. I've played it every night. One huge issue with mine is its defective. There are crack lines that go from thr bottom left side all the way up that it seems deep down in thr screen. I didn't drop this as I still have the plastic it came with on it waiting for an Amazon replacement to not scratch it. I showed it on the reddit and a few people said there's has the same thing. I reported it to analogue but they are very busy so im sure it will take them awhile to get to me.

For travel cases: YNOT Tech Case. Lightly padded and water resistant. Made in Toronto. I use one for my DSes and Vita.

Hey brother, amazing work on this video! I think you and I have the same observations on the Pocket, but my dock doesn’t give me the discharge sound. I’ve heard some folks have the issue and some don’t. I ordered all the same things as you, except I didn’t order an additional power adapter, instead opting for a link cable. One of my only gripes with this device is the lack of Bluetooth for audio. At 13:00 you mention the Switch doesn’t have this feature either, but, it was recently added! Man, if they release these in colors…it’ll be hard to not order a green one. But if they release a GBA form factor…it’s game over, that’s one of the only other issues I have with the system. Check out the work being done patching GB and GBC games to run on the pocket through GB Studio, HMU on Twitter/discord if you need details, but it’s pretty easy to find.

Thank you buddy! Glad you enjoyed the video! I wish I got the link cable, would have been much better than the fast charger. I can’t believe I didn’t know it was added! That so awesome. Not sure how I missed that 😅 Gba form factor with some color options would be so cool. We can always dream ☺️

The dock noise definitely scared me. I have a support email with analogue awaiting a response. Saw the pin explanation and started using again. Still hopefully we will get an official response as it seems to be a concern with multiple pocket owners.

15:55 they can only disrupt the retro gaming landscape if they can sell more than 6 consoles of any given line they release. But for real great video man. You're the best in the game imo.

I've been using that very SN30 2.4g Controller on my dock. It took a little fiddling to get it paired, but it's been working great so far. Lack of a dedicated home button is a little frustrating since you can't take save states with it, but for low lag play, works great.

@MachoNachoProductions 2 года назад

How did you get it to pair? I thought it wasn’t supported yet.

@TanukiTakey 2 года назад

@@MachoNachoProductions I just used the factory pairing mode (hold select for 3 seconds) and then used the pairing button on the dock. Good luck!

I've been salivating for various Analogue products, but haven't been able to justify buying one yet. I don't need any of them, but they're so cool!! If you were to "pre-order" an Analogue Pocket now they promise to deliver it sometime in 2023... x)

@SegaKid_V 2 года назад

6:51 Does the electrical arc sound occur even if the dock is not connected to the wall outlet?

@friedzombie4 2 года назад

No mention of loose cart pins at all was a surprise. Save states not working with Everdrives I haven't heard yet which is kind of a bummer. Everything else we've heard before from previous reviewers just only a handful have this production value, good job Nacho :) It's just a shame that this device could be perfect but still would have an apathetic fan base because of supply chain woes. 4 min into the 2nd pre order window and I still get Q4 2022, add to the fact that they charge you upfront to wait a year feels like a slap in the face

Tito, the most important thing has input lag? Both original games and emulation? Thank you for your work, you always make fantastic videos

@mixmastermacaroni 2 года назад

Great video!!! Question: So for game gear games is there a option to make the "x" button on the analog the start button like the game gear start button location???

@MachoNachoProductions 2 года назад

Unfortunately not at this time. I’m sure as we get firmware updates that could be a possible, full button mapping would be great!

@stonedcrusader 2 года назад

I have a pretty random question - does the sleep button glow in the dark? Great review and the console looks amazing.

@matthewdavis6818 2 года назад

Hey Tito! I have a recommendation for a case. I use the Drive Logic DL-64 portable carrying case, which can be found on Amazon and some other places. It fits my original DMG and Color without any issues. Since the Analogue Pocket is the same height/width but actually thinner than the DMG, I think it would be a good fit. Let me know if you would like to see photos of my handheld cases. Thanks for the great review!

@matthewdavis6818 2 года назад

I also would recommend retro mod ding’s neoprene sleeves as well for additional protection (also fits inside case listed above.) ⬆️

@MachoNachoProductions 2 года назад

Awesome, thank you Matthew! I’ll definitely take a look at it! Cheers!

@matthewdavis6818 2 года назад

It also looks like Waterfield (San Francisco) made an Analogue Pocket case! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UotF2WCr8lo.html

@danielturnage 2 года назад

Yo Tito, I had an idea from one of your previous videos, I saw the unhinged GBA sp and It got me thinking if its possible to make an unhinged DS Lite with a case from Boxy-pixel. I think this would be a really dope project but I'm not sure how I would go about designing a custom PCB to fit the DS mother board since it controls both screens. I was also wanting the DS to use a joycon instead of the traditional D pad in addition to having Blue tooth capability. I know its possible to use the Bluetooth model from a wii mother board but its like how would all of that be incorporated into the piece?

@codysandusky2130 2 года назад

Great video, as always! Have you noticed any of the issues others have reported of the cartridge slot being narrow enough to peel off game labels?

@MachoNachoProductions 2 года назад

Thanks Cody! I haven’t noticed that issue. I’ve heard some folks having that issue with the game gear adaptor though. I think of your labels are in good condition than you should be okay. The labels get damaged if they are beginning to peel or are in not too good of condition. Cheers buddy!

@mjc0961 2 года назад

I've heard it both ways: so tight it peels labels, and so lose that slight taps will break the connection between the system and the cartridge, ending your game. Analogue has some serious QA issues to work out with this device.

Love my pocket as well, the only things is that big hands cramp a little bit. I need to tweak my right hand under instead of on the side for some reason. I can't wait for the super game boy support.
