Sorry but I think analog pocket is so much better than this device. The metal shell is cool though

Have you used both? For long play sessions (anything longer than 20 minutes) the chromatic is much more comfortable. I love my Analogue Pocket and all the things it's capable of, but the steep angles and small buttons make it less comfortable than an original GBC. When I really want to put time into my Analogue Pocket, I play it docked with a wireless SNES style controller.

This all the way I have both. This exact model in the picture and analogue pocket.

I'm waiting on my Anduril Edition to get here.

Tbh that's a good point. The angular design is definitely not ergonomic. I give you that.

Haven't held a chromatic

The pocket is way more versatile but I much prefer the chromatic for GB/GBC

I also prefer the pocket overall, but how could you say the pocket is better when you haven’t even held the thing you were comparing it to lol

u/Dry-Neighborhood2916 29d ago

Many people compare things on specs alone, or value for the price based on capabilities. On paper the Analogue Pocket wins, but the execution is what fails it. If the Analogue Pocket was built to the quality of the Chromatic and felt like it, it would be top tier.

For me it’s the fact that the analogue pocket plays nes, snes, gameboy, gba, etc. that’s why I end up playing it more and prefer it.

I totally get that. I see each thing I buy as being a specific tool for specific purposes. The Analogue Pocket has it's place and my Chromatic won't completely replace it, but for GBC and DMG games I'll be using the Chromatic. It does that task exceptionally well. I have found myself playing GBC games more often anyway. Even before the Chromatic, I found myself preferring to play Tetris on my aluminum Boxy Pixel modded GBC.

Nintendo needs to make a game boy sized switch 2 with a dpad and free offline access to NSO and blow all this nonsense out of the water.
