Pupdate is a free C# utility for updating openFPGA cores, firmware, and related assets on the Analogue Pocket handheld. It runs as an interactive console menu or a command-line tool and can be placed directly on the SD card to manage the device.

Use cases

  • update all openFPGA cores on my Analogue Pocket
  • download and install Pocket firmware updates
  • fetch BIOS and ROM files from archive.org for Pocket cores
  • manage Game Boy palettes and display modes on the Pocket
  • pin specific core versions and skip unwanted cores
  • set up image packs and Pocket Extras on an SD card

When to choose

  • you own an Analogue Pocket and want automated core/firmware/asset updates
  • you want a single tool to configure display modes, palettes, and instance JSON
  • you prefer an interactive menu or scriptable CLI for SD card maintenance

When to avoid

  • you don't own an Analogue Pocket or other openFPGA device
  • you need a GUI application rather than a console tool
  • you want to manage cores on non-Analogue FPGA hardware
