If you see these please report them.
Ha, and that's if you can even time the order it actually goes through, since they still haven't improved their store despite repeated instances of resellers buying them out immediately. Gosh, I wonder if they themselves "buy" the product to resell under different names at incredibly elevated prices. Nah, that would be illegal, and corporations clearly follow the law nowadays, right.
And yeah, not only have these chucklefucks done nothing to improve their ordering or stock situation, they can't code either so software such as for the Pocket is still unfinished and lacking. These shitheads are selling crap on empty promises, and not delivering, all the while keeping the scam going since too few have noticed this company is propped up by years old rumored quality. Sure the hardware is nice, but it's always late and there's never enough, which hardly matters when the morons can't competently write the software to go with it.
While I'm absolutely not vocal about it as you are, I'd say almost 100% of what you feel is shared by myself too. I even bought two pockets (one for me and one for someone else) and we've been amazingly disappointed at the progress of updates on it. Yes they created the OpenFPGA thing, but that was obviously to not get left behind by new emerging platforms like the MisterFPGA and (to a less extent) the Steam Deck.
And will all things on the Internet, they developed a fan base that is mostly pretty defensive about them because they believe if Analogue died tomorrow, all of a sudden this type of project would stop existing (I feel anyhow).
I started looking differently at Analogue after mGBA's developer endrift told their story about their experience with them (worth a read)
Just read it. Confirmed everything I was thinking, the people running Analogue are shitheads.
