Shop Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox For a while now, Venture has been one of the most requested games in my ColecoVision Friday Plays series. After hearing "Play Venture!" over and over in the comments, I finally took your advice. I expected one of the ColecoVision's finest arcade conversions. What I discovered was something even more interesting: a game with surprising depth, clever room-by-room design, and a reputation that suddenly made perfect sense. This week, I'm diving into Venture for the ColecoVision to see why this early Exidy arcade classic has remained such a favorite for more than four decades. - SHOP Shop Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox 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 Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com

Shop LitNXT: https://genxgrownup.com/litnxt The Anbernic RG Rotate is one of the more unusual Android emulation handhelds I’ve seen, thanks to its square 720x720 screen that swivels open to reveal the controls underneath. But is that rotating display actually useful, or is it just a gimmick? In this review, I test the RG Rotate with everything from Atari and Game Boy through arcade, PlayStation, N64, and more to see where it performs best, where the lack of analog controls becomes a limitation, and whether this distinctive little handheld is worth your attention.

This week on Bit By Bit, Evercade is bringing DOOM to cartridge — but do you really need the massive $249.99 limited-edition DOOM Nexus bundle when existing Evercade owners can grab the new DOOM Collection cartridge for just $29.99? We break down what you're actually getting and which option makes the most sense for retro gamers and collectors. Plus, nearly 100 pristine copies of a previously unseen Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt variant have surfaced, including five cartridges earning a perfect PSA 10 grade. Commodore is resurrecting the legendary TAC-2 joystick for $49.99, and one of the rarest arcade machines ever made — a working two-player Computer Space cabinet from 1973 — has gone up for auction. We also check out a new ModRetro M64 firmware update bringing wireless rumble, display options, audio improvements and more; Defender of the Crown: The Legend Returns brings the classic strategy game back roughly 40 years later; Y2K electronics-repair sim ReStory passes 300,000 sales; and Bubsy 4D gets a huge Black Hole update with 15 new levels, outfits, leaderboards and more.

Leatherface traded the movie screen for the Atari 2600—but did the horror survive the trip? Spooky season continues on Friday Plays with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Wizard Video Games’ 1983 adaptation that puts YOU behind the chainsaw. I finally give this infamous cartridge a try, explore its unusual history, and take a look at an alternate prototype that helps explain something strange about the box art. There’s plenty of fuel for discussion… even if the chainsaw keeps running dry. Did you ever encounter this one growing up? And what vintage game would you like to see on a future Friday Plays?
