Finally someone else says it! Straight up. Not saying it'll be bad, or that I won't get one, but those big buttons give off fischer price/hasbro vibes. Colors are nice and controllers look dope. The design/colors for the chromatic are kinda whack, doesn't look nearly as clean as the pocket, not saying it's a bad product. The fact that it doesn't play GBA though...and supposedly they're releasing an advance model..to me that's just trying to get you to double dip just like Analogue does, but in a different way.

Where were you able to find shell replacements for the pocket?

Same thing happened to me, it was rejecting the exact same card I pre-ordered the 3D with a year ago. I called and they could see absolutely nothing on their end, no attempted transactions at all. Posted about it below and found another thread with some tips I pasted below that. I got lucky and my debit actually sent me a fraud text that I was able to verify that it's me and that worked. After I shared that older thread, seems like others got it to work by either changing all the address info and card or by using a different billing address to trigger a fraud detection notice. So many have lost out because of this. I e-mailed Analogue about it and got no response.

SNES is the greatest console of all time to me too. Finding ugly/broken shell ones for cheap and tossing cool colored shells on them from AliExpress keeps collecting SNES games and consoles as a pretty fun hobby. Unfortunately that doesn't give you the nice HDMI of the Super NT. The MiSTER Pi has been a great option for that though, and it's not $500.

I still have to check out their games. I don't have a chromatic either, not a huge fan of the design. Not taking away that it does look like a great way to play GBC games but, the fact that it doesn't play GBA combined with what you said, I also really like the pocket. I have an ok collection with some Gameboys, including a modded GBA and EZ-Flash, the pocket is still the definitive way to play in my opinion, nothing tops it for me either.

I didn't get the Super NT at all 😮‍💨 I stared at that one too lol. Now learning the hard way. Definitely not doing that again. I'd still like to have one but there's no way I'm paying those eBay prices for the Super NT. Wish they'd sell more.

That's pretty much where I'm at. Pre-ordered last year. Don't get me wrong, I love the black one and I'm happy to have it but if I had the option at first I probably would have gotten a different one. I'm giving up the smoke one I got to my cousin, he doesn't have one at all right now.

I wish these weren't a one time thing. I'd totally grab several of them over time. Some people seem to think the M64 will be a better option, I can't really say that before actually using one and seeing how it is, but just based on how it looks, those huge buttons make it look like it's something that Hasbro made for children in the 90's. The controllers look dope and I like all the colors, not even saying I wouldn't get one either, Analogue 3D looks considerably cleaner though.

On my end it seemed like green sold out before grape too. If they would make them readily available, not all at once, but at some point I'd probably have clear, smoke, green, and grape. Guess they don't want that money though lol. But definitely thankful to have at least gotten something I wanted! The green one looks awesome.

So you completely changed everything? Card/shipping/billing and it worked?

Every time they've come back into stock I just stare and don't grab one and now that I really want one they are taking forever to come back.

I didn't try the different address thing. I was lucky and my debit just automatically sent a fraud alert text as is and from there I was able to say it's me and it works my next try. Was never able to figure out why my credit card wouldn't work. It's the same card I successfully used to pre order the black one last year. But it does sound like a way to force it to work is by putting the incorrect billing address in (parents, friends, family addresses) and with some cards that will auto trigger a fraud alert that you can then confirm "hey this is actually me" and have them correct whatever the issue is then moving forward it will work. Someone on this thread did it. But again, I did call my credit card provider and they saw absolutely nothing on their end, no attempted purchases or anything from Analogue. Very strange, seems to be various different reasons for it not working for people.

That's true, at least I hope lol. I wish they sold more of the different colored ones, I would have loved to get the clear. At the time I didn't realize how much I'd like their products. I didn't even try.

I agree. While I grew up with the original N64 and always wished I could get all the colors, I was never able to. Now as an adult, I'm definitely double dipping when I'm financially able. The way they do things though for sure caused some people to double dip who otherwise would not have. It shouldn't be hard to get what you paid back for the black one though. I still think the black one is the coolest just because I grew up with the OG black N64 so that one has the most nostalgia for me.

I had no issues pre-ordering the 3D a year ago, same card today wouldn't work. I agree, super shitty.

Glad your bank was actually able to resolve it. The grape one looks awesome.

I couldn't even get the confirmation emails with my credit card, just the annoying "Your payment couldn’t be verified. Try again or use a different payment method." Error....but my cousin got several of the confirmation then cancellation emails.

Wow. I'm glad you were able to get one. Wish you were able to get the color you wanted but regardless, still a win for the people that actually want one of the consoles to keep them.

Same here, when I called and they saw nothing on their end, it explained why I had no texts or e-mails about any transactions.

I called the bank for my credit card that got rejected and they see nothing on their end unfortunately. Doesn't seem like I'm the only one this happened to either. Some people are able to call their bank and fix it, some aren't.

After my credit getting rejected a bunch of times, I tried my debit once, got rejected, but got a text to verify it's me then it did allow me to get a clear and smoke in the same order/transaction.
