Analogue has unveiled new color options for its 3D console, drawing from unreleased prototypes of the original Nintendo 64. The limited-edition versions will feature hues like Ghost, Glacier, and Atomic Purple, available starting February 9. These cosmetic updates include matching accessories to enhance the retro gaming appeal.
Analogue, a company known for recreating classic gaming hardware, is tapping into Nintendo 64 history with fresh aesthetics for its 3D console. The new limited-edition models take cues from prototype color schemes that were produced but never commercially released for the original N64 back in the 1990s. This approach appeals to enthusiasts seeking rare, nostalgic designs.
The available colors include Ghost, Glacier, Ocean, Extreme Green, and Atomic Purple. Each console bundle comes equipped with coordinated cables, power adapters, and a 16GB SD card preloaded for immediate use. To round out the package, Analogue has collaborated once more with 8BitDo to offer controllers that match the console's palette, providing a cohesive retro look and feel.
Sales begin on February 9 at 11 a.m. ET, with the company emphasizing highly limited quantities. Previous releases, such as the initial Analogue 3D and the Funtastic variants, sold out rapidly, underscoring the demand among collectors. The console is priced at $299.99, with orders shipping within 24 to 48 hours of purchase. Meanwhile, the 8BitDo controllers, at $49.99 each, open for preorder on the same date but with initial deliveries slated for April.
This release builds on Analogue's track record of modernizing vintage systems while preserving their essence, potentially reigniting interest in N64-era games through accessible hardware.
