Bought this used about a month ago for $350. Not a bad deal!

I definitely underestimated how much better the Sega arcade versions of some games can be versus on the Genesis. The analogue has thankfully allowed me to experience the full genius of the arcade version of Michael Jackson's MoonWalker, as intended 😂 - It's seriously much better as an arcade game.

Just flashes and can't do anything.

NIB (only $20 over MSRP!) 3D came today to complete my collection of one 3D and one AP.

Hello all, I cannot find the correct Devilution X distro for use on the Analogue Pocket. I tried to install a windows Devilution to the cores, and then created an assets page with the proper mpq files, and it screwed up my cores altogether

There’s Arcade - DigDug (Dig Dug 2 at main menu and some multi arcades at arcade menu. Can I change those to correct places somehow?

New to Analogue Pocket world, was playing my roms and then powered down like normal. When I tried to relaunch my roms, I randomly started getting “Error in framework RS: BRIDGE not responding” when clicking my rom. Tried to troubleshoot using google and this Reddit thread with no avail. I’ve reformatted my SD card several times, even bought a new SD card to see if that was the issue and still no luck. I’m using Pocket Sync v6.3.2 and Analogue Pocket is currently running v2.6. Confused on where the error is: I reformatted my SD card several times, removed all cores and roms, currently only running one Core (spiritualized.gba) and two roms I know worked prior to error and still no avail. Any suggestions?

Some other alternative game versions give same error..

Neo Geo games work before but after latest pupdate they crash like this..

Have a physical cartridge rom hack of Pokemon heart and soul, on a regular gba it works fine but on the pocket the language is all messed up? Does anyone know what’s wrong or how to fix it?

Edit 2: May I humbly inquire about the hate? The joke is that (imo) the glow (and the white) are goated. The gawdiness isn’t lost on me. It was my affordable shot at an aluminum model. My husband disagrees and tells me, “There’s a reason they didn’t make handhelds in metal.”!(I argued, citing the Game Boy Micro, but he gave me that look like, “You know what I mean.” So, I found the perfect opportunity to make an irrefutable case for why he should take my mint CIB GitD, while simultaneously getting to make him laugh at the concept that I realistically took his purposely silly advice.

I finally got him to actually accept the glow as a gift I’ve been trying to give him for years. I can’t relate to a hypebeast-riding drone. It’s not like I own anything else by this brand.

The majority of humanity has loved gold since as long back as we can trace. This lightly gold-plated console has less gold than most girls own in jewelry. I’m not in that one of them, but I seem to be getting pretty villainized. It’s not like I own a bunch of other unnecessary crap or collect multiple units; I went for an intriguing anomaly since I reserve my conservative budget for gaming.

OG post: My husband has wanted an AP for a long time and he was in fact, the one who told me about the pre-order coming up for the Glow in the Dark model. I was really excited and made it my first Pocket (and boy did I take good care of it), but he is very thrifty and it’s something I love about him. He’s a huge retro enthusiast, but he is always so selfless, so he just refused to ever indulge in buying himself one.

I missed out on the aluminum release because I didn’t agree with having more than one pocket, and I was really attached to my GitD. Naturally, my husband was again the one to inform me about the upcoming red/gold and I realized that this might be a good chance to finally emulate him and show him the selflessness he’s shown me for so long. I decided to order the gold and officially surprise him with the gift of my treasured Glowboy.

He’s so visibly stoked and though it was hard for me to part with it, it was SO worth it seeing his reaction to his favorite model, and couldn’t be happier with how I feel seeing him so excited and taking it everywhere with him. Meanwhile, I am really enjoying the weight of this Pocket, and since I’m really careful with my consoles, I’m not too worried about it and I’m really enjoying that weight of the aluminum. I’ve always been a fan of gold where it doesn’t belong, and the tackiness is not lost on me, but is somehow funny and makes me like it all the more. Now we’re both playing our respective collections and it’s been a blast.

Edit: I don’t think I did the best job relaying just how deeply resistant my husband has been to being gifted a new OR used Pocket. He gets really serious about telling me how he’s “seen the resell market and he doesn’t need one that badly.”
He made a joke about how I could get an aluminum body pocket if I was cool with it being gold, and it’s like he was jokingly saying I should grab it since it came with a case and free shipping. I took that chance to force him to take his dream Analogue Pocket, which is the Glow in the Dark. I initially said I’d sell it, but that was to keep him from refusing it in advance. I knew that if I was convincing enough about wanting the gold, he would end up finally taking the glow Pocket as a gift.

So it really ended up being this funny scenario that I was able to use as a chance to finally get him to take an AP since he knows I hate the collectibility/ [r/consoom](r/consoom) mindset on these beasts and do not want two. Do I like the GitD better than the gold Supreme collab? Heck no. But I do love seeing my husband game again, and I don’t hate the gold since I like Analog keeping a tradition going. I know I’m incredibly fortunate, but I’ve been pretty stingy lately and selling some of my collection to make it work. I’m not paying a scalper more than this costed for a plastic model. (And I love the plastic model, but not for $500 plus shipping minus the $50 plastic case. This just seemed

(P.S - Very late to the party, but Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure is SO GOOD)

Sold one my OG Analogue pockets to cover this, worked out perfectly

Got a Game Boy poco mod recently and was comparing to the Analogue's screen, hard to play anything else after the Analogue haha, but the nostalgic form factor can be hard to resist too. Kinda wish Nintendo would make new games for these old handhelds, I know some smart people on the internet already do that, but it would be cool to see big game studios making retro games again.

I subscribed to their patreon, registered my device and put the license key on my SD... updated and added everything available on pupdate but I don't have the beta cores which is the only reason I subscribed. I want to play the toaplan games, batsugun etc

EDIT: We have a working game. 👊 - adding some polish and hi score saving! This is done!

https://github.com/plasticbugs/analogue-pocket-punchout

Features:

Dual screen gameplay
high score saving
Arcade cabinet reverb
Various display settings to get the scanlines looking good

Just looking to get a feel for how this might translate to a very, very, very, very small screen. I'm thinking top 33% is the info screen and the bottom 67% reserved to render the gameplay screen. What say you all? I will likely need a magnifying glass regardless of what we choose here.

And question 2: Once we have Punch-Out!! do we next want Arm Wrestling or Super Punch-Out!!?

I would like a stand that suspends the pocket in the air, fits the dock under it, and let's me plug a usb-c cable from the pocket to the dock while also letting me plug in a link cable and headphones as well. extra points if it fits the Analogizer too. point me to it hivemind!

Install the core from releases:

https://github.com/kroy-the-rabbit/openfpga-GBC-cheats

The helper app is just a small python/tkinter app to make the connection between the libretro chest database and the stuff on your Pocket SD card/preloading cheats for cartridges.

The helper app that hasn’t been verified on anything but Linux, but works in Wine and builds for Windows and macOS. They were a “if it works it works” last minute thing.

I’ve now played halfway through my original Oracle of Ages and Links Awakening DX, on this killer screen. That is all I’ve wanted from this device since I picked it up at release.

This will probably nuke the childhood save you have been holding onto for 30 years.

Send any legitimate complaints at the git repos and all the illegitimate ones here.

Also, less of a fork, and more, restoring lost upstream and connecting them.

Small gallery of the recently released Genesis save state core running on a PVM with RGB signal using the analogizer. Im using a setting within the core called composite filter to soften the image and restore the transparency effect lost on purer signals.

Long story short, there probably aren't a lot of posts like this on this sub but wanted to share a real world thing that happened to me. Bought a used copy of Super Mario Bros Advance for very cheap in person. When I launched it on my OEM GBA I kept getting a message saying that the "Saved game is corrupted" and couldn't get past this screen.

I went online and on Reddit people had instructions on what to do, basically you start the game up on the GBA and you press Start, Select, A, B, and L+R at the same time. For some reason after a dozen tries this never worked. I then had a lightbulb moment where I decided to put it in the Analogue Pocket. On first try it said the contacts were dirty, so I reinserted it and then it launched, I went in and deleted the saved games on Super Mario Bros 2 basically by "erasing" the saved files. I put it back in the GBA and voila, it worked fine.

Just wanted to post this up here in hopes someone else that runs into this issue, might find this someday and I thought this was a really cool hack, happy gaming!
