https://www.analogue.co/announcements/analogue3d-shipping-in-q4">announced[/url] its third delay to the Analogue 3D on Wednesday, pushing the retro system back to Q4 2025. However, it said that's an intentionally conservative estimate, so this probably isn't a huge concern.</p>
<p>The postponement follows previous ones in March and July. (The last time was <a data-i13n="cpos:3;pos:1" href="

Analogue acknowledged the frustration pre-order customers must be feeling. "We know this sucks," the Pocket maker wrote. "Another delay, announced late, after months of patience. We feel it too."</p>

<p>So, why bother with the $250 console when you can grab a used Nintendo 64 for under $100? Well, Analogue's take supports 4K output, variable refresh rate displays and both PAL and NTSC carts. It's also adding "original display mode" filters to simulate old-school TVs. (They're similar to those you find on the company's highly rated <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="

<p>Analogue says the system is 99 percent done β including hardware, system and packaging. "The last 1% is where we're focused," the company wrote. It says it wants every detail to meet its high standards. Nonetheless, pre-orderers who wish to bail can do so by contacting support.</p>
<p>Frustrations aside, delays are indeed better than shipping incomplete products β even if only by one percent. "We're pushing without pause and appreciate everyone's patience and trust," the company wrote in an email to customers. "Analogue will always deliver β delays or not, it's a commitment to our standard of care."</p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at
