Our My Arcade Coverage Went Viral-ish + More Retro News!

?? Our My Arcade coverage officially made it into the retro news cycle! Time Extension picked up the story on My Arcade’s Gamestation Retro Go (and yes… they used our video as a reference ?), so we’re breaking down what’s coming, what changed since we first saw it, and why this handheld is such a big swing for modern retro.

? Also in today’s roundup:
? 8BitDo’s FlipPad turns your phone into a Game Boy-style handheld controller (portrait mode!), and it’s packed with extra buttons for mapping and emulation fun.
? Plus, CBR dropped a ranked list of retro gaming YouTube channels—including names like AVGN, Scott The Woz, and more—and it got us thinking: who’s on your must-watch list?

? Drop a comment: Are you excited for the Gamestation Retro Go… and which retro YouTuber is #1 in your book?
