Dimitris “Modern Vintage Gamer” Giannakis is leaving Limited Run Games and joining Atari-owned Digital Eclipse—a big get for preservation-minded retro fans. MVG co-built LRG’s Carbon Engine; now he’s headed to Digital Eclipse (of Atari 50 and the Gold Master Series fame). What does this mean for future collections and restorations? Let’s break it down. We also cover a retail shake-up: Costco has removed Xbox listings in the US and UK and, per a rep, doesn’t plan to carry Series X|S “going forward,” calling it a business decision. This lands right before Microsoft’s October 3 price hike (Series X to $649.99, Series S to $399.99). We unpack what this means for Xbox visibility going into holiday 2025. Finally, Eden, the Nintendo Switch emulator that hit Google Play two weeks ago, was pulled from the store. Reporting points to a wave of Nintendo DMCA notices; the devs say they’ll appeal while development continues off-store. We look at what happened and what it signals for emulation on Android. ? Drop your takes: • Will MVG at Atari’s Digital Eclipse raise the bar for classic comps? • Does Costco’s move signal deeper retail headwinds for Xbox? • Is the Play Store a viable home for emulators after Eden’s removal?

The Atari Gamestation Go has gone gold! I’m opening Costco’s $199 bundle to check out the gold handheld, matching gamepad, and official carrying case—and compare the package with buying separately. Plus, Atari’s 55th anniversary branding gives us an early taste of 2027, while community firmware and accessories add even more ways to enjoy it. Thanks to My Arcade for providing this bundle for coverage. #retrogaming #atari #handheld #genxgrownup @MyArcaderetro @atari @CostcoTV - LINKS Gold GSG: https://www.costco.com/p/-/atari-gamestation-go-gold-and-atari-gamestation-gamepad-gold-with-travel-case/4201038944 GSG Grip: https://innovative3dshop.etsy.com/listing/4605099784/gamestation-go-snap-on-ergo-comfort Gamepad Grip: https://innovative3dshop.etsy.com/listing/4605300843/myarcade-wireless-gamepad-ergo-comfort Paul's Store: https://innovative3dshop.etsy.com - SHOP Classic GSG: https://link.amazon/B08P9MICE Classic Gamepad: https://link.amazon/B04N5jwvU http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv - CHAPTERS 00:00 Costco GSG 01:38 Box & Contents 05:17 Carrying Case 05:48 Gamepad 07:50 Hardware Tour 09:20 Old vs. New 10:29 Power On 12:02 Settings & Recharged 13:44 Gameplay 15:22 Conclusion
