Analogue 3D Console: Nintendo 64 in 4K with FPGA hardware and CRT mode visuals
Analogue has introduced the Analogue 3D console, a device that lets players enjoy Nintendo 64 games in modern 4K while preserving access to the original cartridges. The system supports the entire official N64 library and guarantees full regional compatibility, so titles from different regions can be enjoyed without issue. At the heart of the console is 4K upscaling that sharpens the image on contemporary televisions and monitors, while also offering display modes that emulate the look of classic CRT televisions, a feature cherished by retro gamers.
The core technology is FPGA based, reproducing the original hardware behavior of the Nintendo 64 rather than simply emulating the games. The Analogue 3D supports both wireless controllers via Bluetooth and four ports for original wired N64 gamepads, enabling an authentic feel for classic play. For players who do not own original controllers, an 8BitDo pad is available for 39.99.
Sales are planned to begin in 2025 with a suggested price of 250 dollars. For buyers who want the 8BitDo option, it will be offered at 39.99. The North American market remains a primary focus, with the unit expected to ship to Canada and the United States while keeping compatibility with the region libraries intact.
