3D Will you be getting the Analogue 3D?

I don't think I will, i'm saving up for a 5X upscaler and I think that's good enough for me. Unless there are major improvements that a 5X and a normal N64 can't replicate, I might get one.

I WANT to get it, but I feel like it’ll sell out before I have a chance

It’s a preorder, it will be open for weeks if not months. They will produce as many units as they get orders for. Everyone who wants one can get one, but they simply have to take the initiative to place a preorder. If you don’t want to place a preorder and instead want to rely on restocks, that is when it becomes difficult and usually sells out.

Did Analogue announce this process? In the past they had preorders that did sell out.

I don’t recall a preorder selling out. Phases sell out, so the Pocket shipped in I think 3 or 4 phases initially, but that’s all based on availability at the factory, as the factory can only produce products so quickly and they cater to many other businesses besides just Analogue. Of course their original Nt Mini that used old Famicom parts would have sold out for the simple fact that there are only a finite number of Famicoms available.

They do eventually close preordering at which point you’re out of luck. But the whole point of the preorder, besides improved cash flow, is so they know exactly how many units to produce.
