The Analogue Pocket has officially been delayed from May to October 2021. Analogue revealed the news on Twitter, attributing the delay to the global shortage of semiconductors, which could cause issues for the video game industry as well as several other electronics manufacturers. An e-mail detailing the delay will be sent out to those that pre-ordered the retro console, and gamers will have the option to cancel pre-orders should they so choose. The news will surely come as a disappointment for some, but hopefully the delay will give the company a better chance at securing the chips necessary for the Analogue Pocket.
Pocket is delayed and shipping in October 2021.
There are sudden and severe electrical component shortages and logistical issues leading to a domino effect of challenges for nearly everyone in the industry.
We’re sorry this is happening.
