Pick Axe Pete! for the Odyssey² | BIG Claims from a SO-SO Platformer?

Those are some pretty bold claims - can Pick Axe Pete live up to them? See MORE Friday Plays NOW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-0SNVhRM_o&list=PL13zHeyDr6xswcm1YMnJivU0jefJIOLcb&ab_channel=GenXGrownUp Pickaxe Pete is a video game released in 1982 as cartridge number 43 for the Philips Videopac console. It was published in North America for the Magnavox Odyssey² as Pick Axe Pete!. In Brazil, it was re-branded as Didi na Mina Encantada (Didi in the Enchanted Mine) for the Odyssey, featuring the character Didi from the TV series Os Trapalhões on the game cover. The player controls a miner named Pickaxe Pete who starts in the middle of the screen with a pick-axe. There are three doors from which boulders are coming, bouncing down the mine-shafts; every time Pete destroys one of these he gains 3 points, although the axe wears out after a while and disappears. When two boulders collide, they explode, and out comes either a pick-axe which floats to the bottom of the screen, a key which floats to the top, or nothing. If Pete has no axe, the player can either jump over boulders (gaining him 1 point), or get to the bottom of the mine to retrieve a new axe (gaining a 5-point bonus). If Pete collects a key then he can enter the doors, which lead him to the next level. #retrogaming #odyssey #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

Is AI killing retro gaming? ?? In this episode of Bit By Bit, we dig into how the AI boom may be driving up the cost of key components like RAM and what that could mean for retro gamers, collectors, and anyone trying to keep older hardware alive. If rising prices are making it harder to enjoy classic gaming, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear. We also break down more retro gaming news from around the scene and talk about what it all means for GenX gamers who still love the classics. #BitByBit #RetroGaming #AI #GamingNews #RetroNews #ClassicGaming #GamingCollecting #RetroTech #OldSchoolGaming #GenXGaming - LINKS AI Kills Retroid Handheld - https://tinyurl.com/ydbe25bt SNES Doom - https://tinyurl.com/3eypkfhu New Anbernic Flip - https://tinyurl.com/2wc3t6fj Convenience kills the joy of gaming - https://tinyurl.com/5n7u7e9j PS3, WiiU, Xbox 360 Are Old - https://tinyurl.com/5fvfy65z Save Myrient - https://tinyurl.com/3ufjp5cy Secret Of Monkey Island Demake - https://tinyurl.com/vjn9zw8y RG Vita & Vita Pro Updates - https://tinyurl.com/mr4xddrv New Swtich Dock Covers - https://tinyurl.com/mwpbt6vk Atari & OpenTTD News - https://tinyurl.com/ykf3vs5w - 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 - CHAPTERS 0:36 - AI Kills Retroid Handheld 4:40 - SNES Doom 5:49 - New Anbernic Flip 7:36 - Convenience kills the joy of gaming 9:29 - PS3, WiiU, Xbox 360 Are Old 11:38 - Save Myrient 12:53 - Secret Of Monkey Island Demake 14:53 - RG Vita & Vita Pro Updates 16:31 - New Swtich Dock Covers 18:05 - Atari & OpenTTD News
