The Analogue Pocket retro handheld console is returning to stock this week after multiple sellouts, but nostalgia comes at a higher cost. Preorders open March 4 at 11AM ET, with shipments arriving in June. The company confirmed a price increase to $240, up from $220, citing Trump's tariffs on Chinese-assembled electronics as the culprit.

This marks the first price adjustment since the device launched nearly six years ago. The Pocket plays original Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance cartridges without emulation, plus supports various accessories like the camera and printer. Additional adapters enable compatibility with Game Gear, TurboGrafx-16, and Atari Lynx games. The company attributes the increase to recent tariff expansions after the Supreme Court struck down previous trade measures.

Despite the markup, the device remains popular among retro gaming enthusiasts. Our review praised it as a "clever little thing" that triggers nostalgia, earning it a spot on our best handheld consoles list alongside modern competitors like the Steam Deck. Given the console's track record of selling out quickly, interested buyers should be ready at preorder time.
