This sheet of puffy Pac-Man sticker with googly eyes was manufactured by Diamond Toymakers from Skokie, IL some time in the early '80s. I was able to score this one from a local Mom & Pop vintage gaming store, and I wanted to quickly share its charms with you! #pacman #retrogaming #genxgrownup @bandainamcoentertainment - SHOP 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

Analogue 3D is finally getting restocked… but there’s a catch. ? In this episode we break down the November 24th preorder return of Analogue’s 4K, FPGA-powered Nintendo 64-style console, why the price just jumped from $249.99 to $269.99, and what tariffs have to do with it. Is it still worth the premium for original-cart, zero-emulation gameplay, or are you tapping out this round? ? We’re also checking in on Retro Games and PLAION’s The Spectrum Collector’s Edition — a gorgeous all-white tribute to the legendary ZX Spectrum, complete with matching QuickShot-style joystick, thermal printer, and other throwback goodies celebrating 8-bit home computing in style. ???? Then we flip over to the BrickBoy Arcade Edition, a wild LEGO-powered upgrade that turns the LEGO Game Boy build into a tiny arcade cabinet with HDMI output, boosted performance, and local multiplayer. Yep, a mini LEGO cab on your desk playing real games and lighting up like an ‘80s arcade. ???

This week on Bit By Bit, we’re unpacking a big shake-up in retro coverage: Time Extension says it’s done covering ModRetro products moving forward — what prompted the decision, what it means for readers, and why it’s sparking such a loud reaction in the community. ? Plus, we’re celebrating some brighter retro vibes: a look back at why 2025 may have been Evercade’s strongest year yet, with so many releases (and hardware) keeping physical retro alive and well. ???? And finally, a major PC gaming story with retro-friendly implications: CD Projekt is selling GOG — what that could mean for DRM-free games, ownership, and preservation going forward. ?? ? Drop your take in the comments: Should outlets stop covering a company over ethics/politics, or stick strictly to the products? ? Like, ? subscribe, and share the episode with a fellow retro fan!
