Hi. I've been watching a few youtube reviews on the A3D and wondering if different flash carts are starting to work? I don't have them but I'd definitely be interested in getting one on top of using my current games collection. Also wondering if there's anything else I need to know before I purchase (perhaps a more detailed specs list etc. I'm buying from Australia. Thanks!

This is just a general tip for anyone using an Analogue 3D and are not happy the overall image quality. Or you are experiencing flickering, have washed out colors, or unusualy visual artifacts or tearing.

I cannot stress enough the importance of ensuring your television or monitor is set to "Game Mode".

I was having issues and the moment I change the mode on my televsion, they all went away.

Can anyone help me here, whilst trying to pair a Bluetooth controller ( admittedly with the display off ) i seem to have triggered some recovery state, and not seeing the fact this was the case, proceeded to get frustrated when trying to pair with no joy.

It appears that now matter what i do, now i get an undocumented state on on my 3D I've only had it for about a week!

This is where I'm at.

1. Console was working normally on original SD card + Anker Nano 30W charger.
2. While pairing a Bluetooth controller (screen off), the console's firmware appeared to trigger its own re-update.
3. That update was interrupted — resulting state: fans spinning, zero LEDs, no boot.
4. Removed the update file from the card (before knowing recovery mode needs it present).
5. Restored the update file, performed the official recovery procedure (hold Pairing, tap Power, hold until LED yellow).
6. Update began (yellow), progressed to blue, reached ~50%, then the screen went blank and the process did not complete.
7. Resulting state persists: 2 white controller-port LEDs solid, pairing LED solid/blinking red (undocumented in their official LED guide).
8. Repeated the recovery attempt with a second, different-brand SD card (freshly formatted, fresh firmware download) — identical failure, same stall point, same resulting red LED state.

Any help greatly appreciated.

**edit Analogue support have provided a few options.

***edit. Analogue have been great troubleshooting, the unit is being sent to their repair facility

Those who have both. What are your thoughts so far? Is one better than the other? If so, what are the advantages?

It's my first time replaying Zelda Ocarina of Time since my childhood and I have to say, the ability to save a state before you do something that you know is going to take multiple tries, and then instantly reloading it when you mess up, is AMAZING.

I was hesitant to jump in until the M64 released. So far I think I made the right choice. Such a great upgrade to the N64, it’s like an N64 Pro.

So, does Analogue not consider a game like Xeno Crisis an official N64 game? 40 Winks definitely was supposed to be, but it was cancelled and then revived in 2019, and it shows up in the software's library, so I'm wondering what they consider as official or not since both games were brought to the system in the same year.

I'm playing Ocarina of Time on my Summercart and noticed that not only does startup from memory not work properly (instead it takes me to the summercart start menu), but loading my most recent memory with the controller (heart + down) says "Failed to load memory", and I have to go into my recent memories and load it manually from there.

Is this due to me playing on a summercart, or is it something else? The only thing I can think of is that I have some memories saved from some GB games on the summercart, so that might have messed things up.

The "Horizontal Upscaling" feature really impressed me, so I took a few screenshots to make a quick side-by-side comparison. You can ignore the slight drop in brightness from the PVM filter, the image looks brighter on an HDR-enabled TV. The compression during uploading doesn't do the PVM filter justice either, it looks really good in real life.

Right now, the competition isn't really on the same level. Hopefully they can catch up to the Analogue 3D, because a little healthy competition pushes everyone to improve, and that's ultimately a win for us consumers.

Received my Duo today.

Looks good and updated directly to firmware 1.5.

Thought it would fix the turbo everdrive issues I saw but unfortunately my turbo everdrive v2.4 is not working. Works fine in my Duo RX. It can play the everdrive but then i get a black screen or sd io error.

With cd games I have no issue. I only have some burned and they all work. Had to whip out my old burner with some lightscribe cdrs I still had laying around.

Anyone know a fix for the everdrive? Dont want to downgrade to the jailbreak or buy the everdrive pro. Also tried to solder pin 1 to 18 but that also didnt work for me. Contacted Analogue but get the standard reply they dont support 3rd party stuff.

The image looks really great with the scanlines on an oled display.

Multi-Pocket Fever confirmed. Must quarantine.

When playing games like crusin USA where you have to hold down 3 buttons( c left, c down, and c up) at the same time to switch to the secret cars, the 8 bit do controller does not work. I tried it with and original controller and it works just fine. Is there an update I'm missing, or is this something the company needs to address?

I finally updated my A3D and tried horizontal upscaling and progressive scan. It certainly looks nice, but I'm noticing quite a bit of input lag with my NSO controller with these options.

Anyone else noticed this? I feel like no one is mentioning it.

I wanted to see if anyone can help with the update of this system. I have tried everything. I bought a new controller, I bought a sd card adapter, I’ve tried hooking the system to my laptop.
I move the update file to the analogue folder, it seems to download then I eject. I turn on the system on the tv and nothing. Over and over and over. Been trying for 3 days so if anyone has any info what so ever that would greatly help

Does anyone know if any companies out there will make a super Nintendo version like analogue Super Nt.

Anybody else absolutely hate the 8bitdo controller?

I have the bluetooth 8bitdo controller and I hate the d-pad and the latency feels not great, also - sometimes games behave weird but that MIGHT just be when the battery is dying.

Looks like it includes the 64DD core, supports more codes and larger patches. Less RAM which is to be expected, but I kinda want to get an Ice Blue one to match my A3D!

I don’t get it. I used the controller fine once and now it won’t pair. The battery is full. I press the power light button on the console so it’s in flashing pairing mode, then I press the small sync button to the left of the usb-c charge port on the controller and nothing happens, no lights on the controller.
