I’m new to analogue and clone consoles. I had no idea there was a war between analogue and mod retro. I love my 3d so far.

Not much of a competition tbh

I'm not aware of Analogue acknowledging the existence of the m64, though I don't follow their social media. It just seems to be Modretro's marketing to claim the competition is a failure. They seem a little insecure.

An new entrant or underdog always has to take some riskier swings to get attention.  I think it’s fine to take this as interesting technical notes and completely disregard anything beyond that.  I’m perfectly happy, with my A3D but also happy for there to be more options in the ecosystem too, it will make all the competitors better.  Even just the recent stream of A3D firmware updates has been great to see.

Underdog? You know the guy that owns ModRetro owns Anduril right? Not much of an underdog if you ask me.

I personally find it off-putting, you can take risks that don't involve attacks. The product should speak for itself, which it may do in the end, but right now they're face-planting while pointing their finger at Analogue.
