Shop Fightbox: https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox No GoldenEye. No Donkey Kong Country. No Perfect Dark. At first glance, Blaze's Rare Edition Super Pocket feels like an odd collection. But after spending time with it, I think I finally understand what Blaze was going for. This isn't a collection of Rare's biggest hits—it's the story of how Rare became Rare. Join me as I take a closer look at the hardware, the games, and the surprising journey from Jetpac to Banjo-Kazooie. #retrogaming #banjokazooie #evercade #genxgrownup - SHOP BUY Rare Edition Super Pocket » https://amzn.to/4etXbCv 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 - CHAPTERS 00:00 What's Rare? 00:45 Rare Super Pocket 01:42 Box & Contents 04:43 Hardware Tour 07:21 Power On 08:46 Atic Atac 11:55 Battletoads 13:39 Battlemaniancs 15:12 Cobra Triangle 16:35 Conker's Pocket Tales 18:07 Gunfright 19:27 Jetpac 20:53 Knight Lore 21:53 Lunar Jetman 22:33 RC Pro-Am II 23:56 Slalom 25:00 Snake, Rattle, n Roll 26:22 Solar Jetman 27:27 Banjo-Kazooie 33:05 Summary

Last week on Friday Plays, VENTURE on the ColecoVision showed just how much of the arcade game’s personality could make it home. But a lot of viewers told me something interesting: their version of VENTURE wasn’t on ColecoVision at all. It was on the Atari 2600. So in this video, I go back to VENTURE again — this time on older hardware, in a much more limited 4K cartridge conversion — to see how much of the adventure survived. It was never going to be a one-to-one match for the ColecoVision port, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t still a real game here. I look at what made it home, what had to be left behind, and why this version still deserves a fair look. #retrogaming #atari #arcade #genxgrownup - 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 - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro

Another month of thrifting means another pile of retro treasures to share! This time I'm looking through the games, books, records, toys, gadgets, and oddball finds I picked up while digging through antique malls, thrift stores, flea markets, yard sales, and anywhere else old nerdy stuff might be hiding. Some of these are just fun additions to the collection, but others may turn into full GenXGrownUp videos down the road — so let me know what catches your eye. #thrift #vintage #retrogaming #genxgrownup - 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 - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 June Pick-Ups 01:25 Grover Reads 01:56 B&R Lot 04:25 Mighty Mouse 05:13 Scholastic Frances 06:05 LEGO Puzzle 06:34 Vinyl LPs 08:22 Bionic Woman 10:22 Monster Times 10:56 Vintage D&D 11:38 Jack & Jill 12:24 Disney Sliders 12:49 ViewMaster 14:11 Stay Classy 15:21 Spidey 16:17 Excalibur SI 17:02 TomyPac

Released in 1995 near the end of the Sega Genesis era, Comix Zone remains one of the most visually distinctive games ever created. Instead of fighting your way across traditional levels, you battle through the pages of a living comic book as Sketch Turner, an artist trapped inside his own creation by the villain Mortus. But Comix Zone's reputation isn't built on presentation alone. Beneath the incredible artwork, comic panels, and speech bubbles lies a surprisingly demanding game that rewards planning, memorization, and mastery as much as quick reflexes. In this episode of Friday Plays, I'm stepping into the pages of this Genesis classic to find out what has kept Sega fans talking about it for more than thirty years. #retrogaming #segagenesis #sega #genxgrownup - 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 - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com
