Summary

  • Analogue has released a firmware update for its Pocket handheld gaming console that expands support for wireless controllers.
  • The update fixes an issue with backup save exports for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games, as well as introducing a host of updates for the Pocket’s TV dock.
  • The TV dock allows for playing on a larger screen, and this update fixes wireless Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 controllers, as well as adding compatibility for Nintendo’s NES and Genesis wireless gamepads.
  • Previously these had only worked with a third-party Bluetooth dongle.
  • The Analogue Pocket supports game cartridges for older handhelds, but its field-programmable gate array (FPGA) architecture means it can replicate the behaviour of different consoles through ROM files.
  • It also allows for playing Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis games with the appropriate gamepads.
