Crazy Climber has the honor of being the first Atari Fan Club exclusive game.

Perhaps Atari thought the game had limited appeal, or maybe […]

Homebrew is absolutely on a roll in 2026 ?? Mega Cat Studios is kicking off the year with a triple physical-cart drop for classic Nintendo hardware—Super Fanger (SNES) plus Plyuk and Old Towers (NES). Three new reasons to dust off the old consoles? Yes please. ?? Plus, Nintendo fans get a surprising “free” win: Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance (a pricey GameCube gem) is essentially available via Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack—but there’s a catch you’ll want to hear about. And because we’re living our best retro timeline, we take a quick nostalgia detour into forgotten ‘70s hits like Shark Jaws, Sea Wolf, Combat, Space Wars, and Galaxian—games that were huge once… and then poof. ??? ? Drop a comment: are you buying modern homebrew on real carts, or sticking to emulation? #RetroGaming #NES #SNES #Homebrew #MegaCatStudios #NintendoSwitchOnline #Switch2 #FireEmblem #GameCube #ArcadeGames #ClassicGaming #BitByBit - LINKS Mega Cat Studios New Releases - https://tinyurl.com/4nzajdsz Floppy Charger - https://tinyurl.com/3ausvmhr NSO - Fire Emblem - https://tinyurl.com/3zjmzewe Doom Crockpot - https://tinyurl.com/ya3uwvuk 5 Video Games That No One Remembers - https://tinyurl.com/mr335dwa - 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 Keys of Fury » https://keysoffury.com G'AIM'E Time Crisis » http://genxgrownup.com/gaime King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 0:33 - Mega Cat Studios New Releases 2:30 - Floppy Charger 4:19 - NSO - Fire Emblem 5:53 - Doom Crockpot 7:03 - 5 Video Games That No One Remembers

The Atari Gamestation Go, first known as the Gamestation Portable at CES 2024, is still a few months away from release. Back at CES 2025 in January we got a look at the updated design of the handheld, but My Arcade wasn't done. I've been fortunate to get my hands on a new build of the unit and I want to highlight one very notable but easy-to-miss improvement that's been implemented since our last look. #atari #retrogaming #handheld #genxgrownup @MyArcaderetro - 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 King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com
