Analogue 3D is finally getting restocked… but there’s a catch. ? In this episode we break down the November 24th preorder return of Analogue’s 4K, FPGA-powered Nintendo 64-style console, why the price just jumped from $249.99 to $269.99, and what tariffs have to do with it. Is it still worth the premium for original-cart, zero-emulation gameplay, or are you tapping out this round? ? We’re also checking in on Retro Games and PLAION’s The Spectrum Collector’s Edition — a gorgeous all-white tribute to the legendary ZX Spectrum, complete with matching QuickShot-style joystick, thermal printer, and other throwback goodies celebrating 8-bit home computing in style. ???? Then we flip over to the BrickBoy Arcade Edition, a wild LEGO-powered upgrade that turns the LEGO Game Boy build into a tiny arcade cabinet with HDMI output, boosted performance, and local multiplayer. Yep, a mini LEGO cab on your desk playing real games and lighting up like an ‘80s arcade. ???
