Analogue OS is the start of something big.
At its heart, Analogue OS is purpose built for exploring and celebrating all of video game history. Designed to be the definitive, scholarly operating system for playing and experiencing the entire medium.
With Analogue OS you can explore, discover and play through all of video game history, save your game state at any moment with cartridges, track your gameplay and even develop your own FPGA cores to help preserve video game history, too. It's all for the love of video games. With the respect it deserves.
Powered by
Everything at Analogue is powered by FPGA. An FPGA provides unparalleled accuracy and low latency - eliminating many of the problems with software emulation. So you know you are experiencing history with the respect it deserves.
Powered Dev
Pocket is designed to be as easy as possible to develop and port FPGA cores to. We added a second dedicated FPGA just for developers to develop & port their own cores. Developers will be able to interface with Analogue OS: Library, Memories and Tools. And to Pocket hardware, I/O's and scalers. We think developers are going to do some amazing things.
Explore the Library. Everywhere.
Library is a reference level database to play, explore and share. A scholarly cataloging of the entirety of video game history. Search and explore through it's full breadth: system by system, game by game, region by region, developer by developer, publisher by publisher, revision by revision. All of it.
