Is Atari Building A Retro Empire? + More Retro News!

This week on Bit By Bit, Atari makes another big retro move by acquiring rights tied to the first five Wizardry games. Is this just another classic IP pickup, or is Atari quietly building something much bigger in the retro gaming space?

We’re also covering Super Mario 64 running on Game Boy Advance, a pocket-sized GameCube made from real Nintendo hardware, the delayed THEA1200 Amiga-style retro computer, Takashi Tezuka retiring from Nintendo, new Neo Geo AES+ details, possible retired Evercade cartridges returning, and the open-source Game Bub FPGA handheld.

Eight bits of retro gaming news from the past week — all that and just a little bit more, right here on Bit By Bit! ??
