WaterField finally made a great Analogue Pocket case

Once you have overcome the challenge of obtaining an Analogue Pocket, your next task is figuring out how to play the thing outside your home. There aren't many case options beyond Analogue's own, which is an awkward clear plastic box that was seemingly more intended for storage and display than on.

The best one I have found so far is from WaterField Designs, the San Francisco company we have covered a few times in the past for its leather-clad backpacks and laptop bags. The Analogue Pocket Pouch is a simple accessory that protects your console and gives you storage for a few Game Boy games.

The Analogue Pocket Pouch is mostly made of a canvas material. It is available in five colors: black, red, blue, and green. I think the red version looks great. The closest product to luxurious flair is the interior, which is made of plush padded material.

The pouch has magnets hidden in it. I found the magnets to be a little weak and the pouch would often be open when I went to take it out of a bag. I don't think there is much risk of the Analogue Pocket coming out of the pouch accidentally.

The zip pocket is designed to hold Game Boy games and a charging cable. WaterField says it's good for two Game Boy games, but I found that it made the pouch bulge a little and may not protect the games as effectively. If you stack three more, you can easily fit three shorter Game Boy Advances in the pocket. This is a solid amount of storage for a system that is still designed to run original physical software.

There isn't much more to say about WaterField's Analogue Pocket Pouch. I want it to make the Analogue Pocket a more viable portable console. You can order one from the 11th batches now, and it will ship April 22nd.
