In 1983, Atari decided what was good for the goose was good for the gander. Just as Mattel had formed M Network to publish software for the Atari VCS, Atari realized it could leverage its properties and publish to other platforms, too. Thus was born Atarisoft. One high-profile title ported to their main competitor's platform was Pac-Man for the Mattel Intellivision - and as you'll see, it just might have backfired. #atari #retrogaming #intellivision #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

After seeing this new form factor at CES 2026, including a Pac-Man version still to come, I wanted to find out how the screen, controls, size, and overall feel hold up — and what this first Gamer Fun device might tell us about future My Arcade releases. #retrogaming #handheld #sports #genxgrownup @MyArcaderetro - SHOP Shop Gamer Fun » https://amzn.to/4vNjTx8 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 Gamer Fun 02:08 Box & Contents 04:58 Hardware Tour 08:52 Battery 10:30 Power/Volume/Brightness 12:27 Goal! 14:24 Bases Loaded 3 16:15 Trampoline 18:19 Cut the Fruit 19:21 Everybody Fishing 20:15 Go Downstairs 21:03 Good Fisherman 21:29 Happy Miner 22:13 Highway Racing 23:11 Lightning Gunner 23:52 Mine Clearance 25:04 Pastry Party 25:32 Pinball 27:06 Spot Difference 28:16 Trampoline Goblin 28:44 Turn Stone 29:29 Summary

? Atari Hotel Hits GAME OVER — and Vegas isn’t getting its joystick-themed check-in after all. This week we break down the latest report that the Atari-branded Las Vegas hotel plans have been scrapped, what that likely means for the project, and why this one fizzled after so much hype. ?? Then we jump into a wild slice of gaming/tech history: a Steve Jobs–related Atari “Astrochart” plan is among new items headed to auction. Vintage Apple + Atari weirdness? Yes please. ?? ?? And finally, your Evercade gets a nice boost: the first Evercade firmware update of 2026 brings Neo Geo options (hello DIP switches / AES tweaks) plus Atari 2600 improvements—the kind of quality-of-life stuff retro fans actually notice. ?
