Analogue pushed back the release date for their N64-style home console yet again. They first showed us the Analogue 3D back in 2023, promising we'd play it by 2024. Buyers expected to have their systems by early 2025. The company just changed plans on March 18, telling everyone they'll need to wait until July 2025.
The company posted this news in its "3D Preorder FAQ" section. It said, "Shipping is delayed and will be delivered by July 2025. We are working hard to ship your 3D order fast." It added that current customers don't need to take any action. Anyone unhappy with the delay can ask for their money back—Analogue offers full refunds on all pre-orders without asking why.
This fancy remake of the classic Nintendo 64 sells for $249.99 and comes in black or white colors. The team spent almost four years building it with FPGA technology. This helps the system run games exactly as intended without the problems you see in regular emulators. It skips the lag, weird graphics, audio issues, and timing problems found in software-based systems.
Buyers should know the Analogue 3D package doesn't include a controller. You'll need to plug in an original N64 "trident-shaped" controller or buy a third-party version. The ads show 8BitDo's new 64 Bluetooth Controller with the system. Thanks to these delays, gamers will likely have their wireless controllers several weeks before the actual console arrives.
