Dimitris “Modern Vintage Gamer” Giannakis is leaving Limited Run Games and joining Atari-owned Digital Eclipse—a big get for preservation-minded retro fans. MVG co-built LRG’s Carbon Engine; now he’s headed to Digital Eclipse (of Atari 50 and the Gold Master Series fame). What does this mean for future collections and restorations? Let’s break it down. We also cover a retail shake-up: Costco has removed Xbox listings in the US and UK and, per a rep, doesn’t plan to carry Series X|S “going forward,” calling it a business decision. This lands right before Microsoft’s October 3 price hike (Series X to $649.99, Series S to $399.99). We unpack what this means for Xbox visibility going into holiday 2025. Finally, Eden, the Nintendo Switch emulator that hit Google Play two weeks ago, was pulled from the store. Reporting points to a wave of Nintendo DMCA notices; the devs say they’ll appeal while development continues off-store. We look at what happened and what it signals for emulation on Android. ? Drop your takes: • Will MVG at Atari’s Digital Eclipse raise the bar for classic comps? • Does Costco’s move signal deeper retail headwinds for Xbox? • Is the Play Store a viable home for emulators after Eden’s removal?

The Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection just hit Steam, but the reaction isn’t quite a flawless victory. We dig into what fans love about this nostalgic bundle and what’s leaving them frustrated. Plus—SouljaBoy’s “new” handhelds have sparked controversy for looking almost identical to Retroid devices, and AtariAge Publishing drops a surprise at PRGE with Ducks Away, a brand-new light gun game for the Atari 7800.
