Other features include wireless Bluetooth and 2.4g, with a preview of what the controller looks like below. It will have four original-style controller ports to connect your original N64 controllers to. It will run on the Analogue OS. Hidden away in the bottom of the page are the following notes:

  • Analogue 3D does not support openFPGA
  • Analogue 3D does not play copyrighted rom files, it plays legacy game cartridges via the cartridge slot.
  • Analogue 3D is not designed using software emulation. It is designed using a specialty hardware chip called an FPGA, which operates on a transistor level implementation of its functionality.
