The TrimUI Brick Takes Inspiration From The Analogue Pocket

No offense to the author, but this doesn't have anything to do with the Analogue Pocket (and doesn't seem to be inspired from it). It's emulation, it doesn't take a cart, the dpad and buttons look different (it has 3 lower buttons in a different position), the screen form factor is different. I guess it comes in black and white and it's somewhat slim with a narrow bezel (unlike the Game Boy Pocket that all of these inherit design from). But are we going to call everything that looks like a Game Boy pocket Analogue-Pocket-like now?

The RGB light at the top is also a negative feature for me personally. Other than that, it looks okay and I hope the feel of the buttons is equal to a Game Boy and isn't tactile domes.

@JonathanChapman Oh, come on. The overall physical design is extremely similar to the Pocket, which is obviously what the author was referring to.

It looks far more like an Analogue Pocket than a GameBoy Pocket, which is why he made that comparison.

@Razieluigi If I got very very drunk I might mistake the two in the dark. Maybe that's why they added the RGB light. To make sure I wouldn't accidentally pick this up in that state.

@JonathanChapman

it's obvious to everyone (else) that this is deliberately going for the same general look. when you have to point out that the function buttons are slightly different, you arent making a great case. 👍

I don't know. When I see this I think "modern DMG" and not "Analogue Pocket". Because this design has been done to death and while I love TrimUI and my old GB, the shoulder buttons in this form factor give me handcramps.

Still waiting on a OG GBA formfactor device for everything Nintendo and some better CFW the RG-ARC-S for everything Sega.

@Scollurio I agree.. that would be great.

Another Chinese handheld clone being passed off for a poor man's Analogue Pocket w/ underwhelming performance. That's an insult trying to compare this Chinese handheld clone to a Pocket.
