? Atari’s “playable hotel” plans in Phoenix are giving me major bad-vibes. A gaming resort with an esports venue, a sportsbook, nightlife… and an investment push? Yeah—this is one of those ideas that sounds “bold” on paper but feels messy (and risky) the closer you look. ??? In this episode of Bit By Bit, I break down what’s been revealed so far, why it doesn’t sit right with me, and what I think this could mean for Atari’s brand (and retro fans) if it goes sideways. Then we wrap up with more retro news you don’t want to miss! ??? ? Sound off in the comments: Would you actually stay at an Atari Hotel… or is this a hard pass? ? Like • ? Comment • ?

Nintendo is responding after a hacker group reportedly demanded $2 million over allegedly stolen employee-related data, and the story gets messy fast. But that’s only the beginning of this week’s Bit By Bit! We’re also looking at the sad news of Ubisoft co-founder Claude Guillemot’s passing, Sony apparently shifting away from future PC releases for its biggest single-player PlayStation games, Wolfenstein 3D getting an impressive Atari Lynx port, and someone finally trying to make the definitive version of Zaxxon for the Atari 2600. Plus, Commodore is back in the weirdest way possible with a retro flip phone, LEGO is releasing a working arcade pinball machine set, and the cancelled Xbox 360 version of GoldenEye 007 has been recompiled to run natively on PC. Grab your coffee, fire up the CRT, and let’s dig into another round of retro gaming news, modern gaming weirdness, and a few stories we definitely did not see coming. ? #Nintendo #RetroGaming #BitByBit #Atari #GoldenEye007 #PlayStation #Commodore #LEGO - LINKS Nintendo Ransom - https://tinyurl.com/3hrkacyj RIP Claude Guillemot - https://tinyurl.com/27exbnbc Sony Ditches PC - https://tinyurl.com/ymzfsc9m Wolfenstein Lynxy - https://tinyurl.com/y2494y86 Zaxxon 2600 - https://tinyurl.com/29ep55b8 Commodore Callback - https://tinyurl.com/2t2yjt9k Lego Pinball - https://tinyurl.com/5yps5u2m Golden Eye Xbox - https://tinyurl.com/37sbhwmr - 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 00:22 - Nintendo Ransom 03:28 - RIP Claude Guillemot 06:40 - Sony Ditches PC 09:34 - Wolfenstein Lynxy 11:28 - Zaxxon 2600 13:36 - Commodore Callback 16:09 - Lego Pinball 17:46 - Golden Eye Xbox

Atari just dropped a surprise for retro gamers — brand-new physical cartridges for the Atari 7800 in 2025! That’s right, officially licensed Bandai Namco classics like Pac-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug, and Xevious are hitting shelves again for the 7800 and 7800+.

Meanwhile, the voice behind the legendary “Toasty!” line from Mortal Kombat has left the studio, marking the end of an era for one of gaming’s most iconic sound bites.
