Hold onto your controllers, gamers! The highly anticipated Analogue 3D console, which promises to breathe new life into classic Nintendo 64 games with stunning 4K graphics, has encountered an unfortunate delay in its shipping schedule.

Originally set to ship in the first quarter of 2025, the Analogue 3D's release has been pushed back to July 2025. This means that fans eagerly awaiting the chance to dust off their old N64 cartridges will have to wait a little longer. According to industry insiders, this delay could coincide with the rollout of the much mentioned Nintendo Switch 2, raising anticipation levels even higher!

In a statement on their website, Analogue reassured customers, "We are working hard to get your 3D order in your hands as soon as possible and appreciate your patience." If you preordered the console, there’s no need to worry; all existing orders remain secure. Plus, if you have a change of heart, Analogue maintains a hassle-free, no-questions-asked refund policy for preorders.

So, what sets the Analogue 3D apart from traditional N64 systems? For starters, it is touted as the first fully-compatible recreation of the original console. This means no more frustrating software emulation problems like input lag, graphical inaccuracies, or frame rate issues. The Analogue 3D aims to deliver an authentic gaming experience exactly as Nintendo intended.

As we wait for its arrival, the excitement among retro gaming enthusiasts only builds. Will this console redefine how we play our beloved classics? Here's hoping that the delay allows Analogue to refine their already impressive product further! Stay tuned for updates as we follow this story closely.
