(Analogue Pocket) was released. The product will launch in 2020 and will cost $200.

This product is said to be able to play 2,780 previous-generation Game Boy cartridges, including the first Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advanced. If you attach a cartridge adapter that will be released after the main body is released, it will also support game gear, neo-geo pocket color, and games for Atari. If it goes like this, it covers most of the major portable game consoles that have been released so far.
It is known that the retro game compatible models introduced by analog companies have excellent compatibility. The secret is that the hardware itself is reproduced as an FPGA chip without using a software emulator. The analog pocket also includes a game development kit. It is said that it is also supposed to be used as an indie game developer platform, such as creating a dedicated game and porting software for other game machines. It also offers the Nanoloop app, known as the Game Boy composition tool. Related information can be found here .
