Microsoft’s latest round of gaming layoffs has reportedly gutted id Software, drastically reducing the legendary studio behind DOOM and Quake—and co-founder John Carmack admits his prediction that Microsoft would be a good steward of the company isn’t aging particularly well. Plus, Activision and Imagic classics are packing a colorful new Super Pocket, someone has successfully booted Linux on the Atari Jaguar, and a massive LEGO Donkey Kong arcade set has apparently leaked ahead of its official reveal. We’re also covering Commodore’s surprisingly successful Callback phone, Atari’s new Centipede Swarm for Amazon Luna, four new Game Boy and Game Boy Advance additions to Nintendo Switch Online, and Valve’s simple official fix for the Steam Machine’s dreaded “Red Line of Death.” Which story surprised you the most?

Take your beloved 8-bit and 16-bit cartridges to the cloud! In today’s episode we break down RetroArch’s new Netplay overhaul—peer-to-peer connections, a public lobby browser, and even spectator mode mean you can finally square off in Mario Kart, Streets of Rage, or Street Fighter II with friends around the globe as if you were sharing the same couch. retroarch.com But what does this tech leap say about the bigger picture? A fresh GameSpace report argues the industry is on the verge of ditching dedicated hardware altogether as cloud and cross-platform services outpace traditional consoles in convenience and reach. We weigh the pros, the lag concerns, and why exclusives still keep that dusty SNES (or a shiny PS6) relevant—for now. gamespace.com Finally, CBR has ranked the 10 greatest video-game cameos in movie history—from Mel Brooks’ Silent Movie literally “playing” with a character’s life, to Airplane! sinking a hoops shot, and The Princess Bride going full HardBall. We’ll run through the list and add a few retro favorites of our own. cbr.com Hit play, share your Netplay triumphs in the comments, and don’t forget to subscribe for your weekly blast of Bit By Bit nostalgia!

Atari on a Game Boy… in 2025? Yep. ModRetro’s new Atari ’90s Rewind Collection drops three classics—Asteroids, Centipede, and Super Breakout—remastered in full color with fresh soundtracks on the Chromatic cartridge system, priced at $99.99. It’s designed for Chromatic but also works on original GB/GBC and Analogue Pocket, giving handheld retro a legit glow-up. Plus: Saturn fans—there’s a new SAROO firmware with slick features (cheats, media players, Photo CD support, config editing), but early reports say proceed with caution due to caveats and instability. We’ll unpack what’s great and what to skip—at least for now. And to cap it off, the Indie Horror Showcase 2025 returns Oct 23 at 10am PT / 1pm ET, co-hosted by John Wolfe and BigGaming64, with fresh reveals from horror publishers. We’ll preview what to watch. If you dig retro news with real talk, hit like & subscribe, and drop your take: colorized Atari on GB—genius or gimmick?
