Analogue’s 4K Nintendo 64 launches next year for $249

It won’t make it out in 2024 as originally planned, but Analogue is finally ready to share details on its take on a Nintendo 64. The Analogue 3D will launch early next year (the company says Q1 2025) and will cost $249.99. It comes in either black or white, and preorders kick off on October 21st at 11AM ET.

In addition to the timing and price, Analogue also released the first images of the console:

First announced at the beginning of the year, the Analogue 3D is a modern take on the N64, similar to previous Analogue consoles covering the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, and Game Boy. The new console can upscale classic games to 4K and includes multiple display modes to mimic the look and feel of a CRT display. Analogue says it’s “designed with a bespoke, purpose-built 4K upscaler.”

The company says the Analogue 3D is 100 percent compatible with the N64’s cartridge library (it’s also region-free) by utilizing FPGA technology, which allows it to function like the original console. This is good news for the N64, in particular, which has proven notoriously hard to emulate.

The Analogue 3D supports Bluetooth and has four original controller ports, two USB ports, and an SD card slot. You can check out the full specs right here. There’s also a new operating system dubbed 3D OS, which you can get a glimpse of below:

It doesn’t come with a controller, but 8BitDo has created an updated version of the N64 gamepad — minus the third prong — that is being sold separately for $39.99. You can see it in the photo at the top of this article. It has a Hall effect stick and is also compatible with the Switch, Android, and PC. You can also just use any original N64 controllers you have lying around.

The reveal comes during a particularly interesting time for new video game hardware. Sony is about to launch the PS5 Pro, while Nintendo has a new console on the horizon, along with a $99 alarm clock.
