Title: Veteran N64 dev says Analogue 3D ‘nowhere near cycle accurate’ in new test video
Post by: Redaktion on December 22, 2025, 02:12:33
Veteran N64 developer and hacker Kaze Emanuar has publicly challenged Analogue 3D's claims of cycle accuracy and "100% compatibility," presenting side-by-side tests that show slower performance, missing hardware behaviors, and failed system checks compared to an original Nintendo 64. While he still considers the FPGA-based system a strong, affordable option for most players and notes that firmware updates may address many issues, Analogue has yet to respond to the mounting concerns from speedrunners, modders, and preservationists.

Weird comment. Talk about what people enjoy? You'd be a GREAT reviewer, mate.
Anyway on a serious note I 100% agree with this article. This thing has failed ever test I've put it up against and the overall user experience is just absolutely awful. The thing takes forever to turn on and doesn't even send an EDID to your screen right away, so it looks like something's wrong when really you just have to wait a long time. My biggest complaint is the GUI though. They brag that it's sleek or whatever but it looks like a streaming service layout build by an undergrad.
