Carmageddon is back and bloodier than ever! ?? In this episode of Bit By Bit, we’re diving into Carmageddon: Rogue Shift, the new roguelite spin on the classic death-racing series, heading to PS5, Xbox Series, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2 in early 2026. We’ll talk post-apocalyptic zombie hordes, brutal car combat, and whether this new direction can really bring Carmageddon roaring back to life. Then we’re jumping over to Stranger Things season 5, where a “totally unforgivable” NES blooper has retro gamers laughing, groaning, and nitpicking frame-by-frame. We’ll break down the Ghosts ’n Goblins arcade/console mix-up and why tiny details like this matter so much to ’80s kids and cartridge purists. Finally, we look at a decade-long retrobrighting study that suggests our beloved console-whitening tricks might actually be doing more harm than good. From a poor Dreamcast shell to streaking, blotching, and worse yellowing over time, we’ll talk about what this means for restoring (or not restoring) your aging plastic hardware. If you love retro gaming, weird tech experiments, and catching every tiny on-screen mistake, you’re in the right place. Hit play, share with a fellow retro nut, and let us know in the comments: Are you hyped for Carmageddon: Rogue Shift—and will you still risk retrobrighting your gear?

Bubsy is back… and somehow this comeback is looking way more interesting than anyone expected ?? In this week’s Bit By Bit, we’re digging into Bubsy 4D and why its “subvert expectations” energy might actually land when it hits PC + consoles on May 22, 2026. Then we pivot to some seriously cool retro hardware: an Atari ST mini-style build called the MiniST—an FPGA-powered passion project with MiSTeryNano vibes, HDMI output, and that clean black wedge look… but with an initial run of only five units ??? And finally, we take a respectful moment for the retro community as New Wave Toys shares a difficult update following the passing of founder Shilo Prychak. We’ll talk about what’s been shared, what it could mean for future projects, and why his work mattered to so many of us ??? ?

Something's amiss at the bakery! The conveyers are spinning out of control! A torrent of cakes and pies pour from the ovens. The besieged Baker must snatch the pastries before they fall off the end, but avoid the deadly silverware. If that's not enough, there's a dancing gingerbread man that tries to out-fox the Baker and a surly janitor to sweep up the mistakes. #atari #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 King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com

Shop Fightbox: https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox Step back to 1986 with the Radio Shack Astro Thunder, a tabletop VFD classic that brought arcade-style space combat into your home. Powered by 4 C batteries and originally priced at $39.95, this Tandy release (Model 60-2197) is actually part of a fascinating lineage—licensed from Grandstand’s Firefox F-7 and rebranded across multiple versions like the Epoch Astro Thunder 7 and Galaga X6. In this video, we resurrect a malfuncitoning example of this classic, take a closer look at Astro Thunder's gameplay, its distinctive vacuum fluorescent display, and how it fits into the golden age of handheld and tabletop electronic games. Whether you remember it from your childhood or are discovering it for the first time, this is a retro gem worth revisiting. #retrogaming #vintage #handheld #genxgrownup cards 05:28 galaxy ii - 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 00:00 Astro Thunder 01:43 Box & Contents 04:15 Manual 05:22 Hardware Tour 09:13 Power On & Test 11:24 Dismantling 14:15 Cleaning 18:02 Re-Test 21:26 Re-Assembly 22:21 Phase 1 23:21 Phase 2 24:01 Phase 3 25:02 Phase 4 26:13 Phase 5 26:47 Phase 6 27:28 Summary
