Shop G'AIM'E: https://genxgrownup.com/gaime Arcade games are on Jon’s mind as he prepares to head to the Southern-Fried Gaming Expo, so this week on Friday Plays he is checking out Sega’s uncommon 1984 conversion of Tapper for the Atari 2600. This late-release port is now rare, expensive, and unfamiliar to many Atari fans—but how much of Bally Midway’s frantic arcade classic survived the trip to the 2600? Jon serves drinks, catches returning glasses, tackles the devious bonus round, and finds out whether this watered-down conversion still has plenty of flavor. #atari #arcade #retrogaming #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

I picked up this nearly unused Radofin Tele-Sports Mini at the Long Island Retro Gaming Expo, mostly because it was impossible to resist the pure late-1970s charm of the thing. With 4 electronic action games, two unusual controllers, and even a PRO-AM OPTION, this is a great little snapshot of what home TV gaming looked like in 1977. In this video, I take a closer look at the hardware, the history behind Radofin, and what makes this strange little Pong-era time capsule so much fun to explore. card 12:14 Bentley - 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 Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv - CHAPTERS 00:00 Radofin Tele-Sports 01:57 Box Opening 03:55 Switch Box 04:40 Controllers 07:18 Manual 08:32 Light Clean-Up 10:35 Practice & Pro/Am 13:00 Two-Player Tennis 14:20 Two-Player Hockey 15:20 Two-Player Squash 16:17 Conclusion

The NeoGeo AES+ was shaping up to be one of the most exciting new pieces of retro hardware this year — but now fans are going to be waiting a whole lot longer. The hardware-accurate NeoGeo revival has been pushed all the way into September 2027, and we’re digging into what caused the major delay. Plus, GOG takes game preservation beyond the games themselves with printable classic PC big-box extras, Super Smash Bros. Melee reaches a huge decompilation milestone after years of work, and the new Metal Slug Ultimate Collection packs ten games together with online co-op. We’ve also got a major RPCS3 breakthrough that makes physical PS3 discs much more useful on PC, another surprising development in the never-ending Amico saga, a modern reimagining of Lara Croft’s original Tomb Raider adventure, and a compact 4:3 retro gaming monitor built with classic consoles in mind. It’s eight bits of retro gaming news, all packed into this week’s Bit By Bit! #NeoGeo #RetroGaming #SNK #GamePreservation #MetalSlug #TombRaider #ClassicGaming #BitByBit - LINKS NeoGeo AES+ Delayed - https://tinyurl.com/498wbpxe GOG Big-Box Preservation Extras - https://tinyurl.com/yc29phfs Super Smash Bros.
