I would hope whatever team was behind the new Earthworm Jim would get to keep working on it for real consoles/PC, but probably no…
☝️ This. Their cartridges are mostly retro compilations from classic arcade companies and 8/16 bit home computers and such,
The article poising this as an analogue competitor seems naive.
If you upload a video to YouTube, it has to have a clickbait title 😒
Yeah, I hate that Analogue releases are limited. If you miss the window, you either missed it forever or are willing to pay obscene prices on eBay 😞
As the video says, it doesn’t provide all the functionality that the Analogue Pocket has, but it’s a very good alternative for a decent price!

Nice! I’ve always wanted a Famicom AV, they look super cool.
The Amazon listing says:
I don’t understand why they didn’t make it compatible with Switch and other consoles 8Bit-Do usually supports.
I remember playing this on a friend’s Lynx and I would love to play the Surf game on that! I really enjoyed it at the time. Later I’d play the DOS port and thinking “this is not as fun as I remembered”, but I’m not sure it was an issue with the port itself or that the game wasn’t that good to begin with 😅 I should check it out again…
I’ll add a recommendation for Retro Recipes, I find it pretty chill and wholesome.
Cool! Other interesting retro gaming musicians on Bandcamp:
After a long time of going to the Analogue website and looking at the Pocket, I ended up ordering one. I usually play on my GBA, but the Analogue Pocket is really promising as the best device to play the original GB/GBC/GBA cartridges!
I love Marvel Vs. Capcom and I didn’t really play the second one much. This is a day one purchase for me on the Switch!
