If you've watched my reviews, you've probably heard me complain when a retro handheld or tabletop arcade doesn't save high scores. But this isn't really about the scores themselves—it's about what they represented, and why that little feature was such an important part of the original arcade experience. Let's talk about what we've been trying to preserve all along. #retrogaming #arcadegames #highscore #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 Common Comment 01:15 Small but Important 02:05 What We're Chasing 03:10 The Challenge 04:09 Technical Argument 04:58 The Chase 05:37 What Are We Preserving? 07:12 Gadgets Aren't Arcades 08:03 The Irony 08:44 Why It Matters 09:15 Conclusion

Shop Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox For a while now, Venture has been one of the most requested games in my ColecoVision Friday Plays series. After hearing "Play Venture!" over and over in the comments, I finally took your advice. I expected one of the ColecoVision's finest arcade conversions. What I discovered was something even more interesting: a game with surprising depth, clever room-by-room design, and a reputation that suddenly made perfect sense. This week, I'm diving into Venture for the ColecoVision to see why this early Exidy arcade classic has remained such a favorite for more than four decades. - SHOP Shop Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox 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

When most people think of Frogger, they picture the arcade cabinet, the home console ports, or maybe even the classic handheld LCD games. But in 2000, Tiger Electronics decided to take things a step further and turn Frogger into an actual frog-shaped handheld.

Join me as I take a look at this quirky piece of retro gaming history, put it through its paces, and find out whether this goofy green frog is all gimmick—or a surprisingly fun way to play Frogger. #retrogaming #handheld #frogger #genxgrownup - LINKS Retro Zoltan » @RetroZoltan Crazy Eights II » C82 https://youtu.be/obSeHa1d7xk - 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 Fysical Frogger 01:50 The Frog 03:00 Hardware "Tour" 06:30 Power On 10:07 Better Run 12:45 Summary
