ATARI Star Wars: The Arcade Game | It Took THREE Companies to Build This 2600 Port!

Star Wars, the arcade game, was created and released into arcades in 1983 by Atari, but when it came time to bring their own space-shooter to home consoles, they hit a legal road block. So how was it that Atari didn't have the rights to bring their OWN game to their own home console in 1984? A board game company beat them to it. #atari #retrogaming #starwars #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 - CHAPTERS

VENTURE on Atari 2600 Shows What Had to Be LEFT BEHIND

Last week on Friday Plays, VENTURE on the ColecoVision showed just how much of the arcade game’s personality could make it home. But a lot of viewers told me something interesting: their version of VENTURE wasn’t on ColecoVision at all. It was on the Atari 2600. So in this video, I go back to VENTURE again — this time on older hardware, in a much more limited 4K cartridge conversion — to see how much of the adventure survived. It was never going to be a one-to-one match for the ColecoVision port, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t still a real game here. I look at what made it home, what had to be left behind, and why this version still deserves a fair look. #retrogaming #atari #arcade #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 - CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro

LEVEL DEVIL | I Promise I’m Gonna Keep My Cool (maybe)

“Troll” is such a strong word for this 2D platformer with nearly 240 uniquely inventive levels. Don’t let screaming YouTubers convince you that this game is unfair. It’s fair. Sure, there are buzzsaws but they’re NICE buzzsaws. You will curse the guy who made Level Devil then ask for more. #indiegame #vhs #video #genxgrownup - LINKS Level Devil on Steam » https://store.steampowered.com/app/3242750/Level_Devil/ - 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

What Happened to the NeoGeo AES+ Launch? + More Retro News!

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.

ATARI ColecoVision+ Sounds Great… So What’s the Catch?

Atari has brought back the 2600 and 7800, and now there’s an Intellivision Sprint. So why not complete the collection with a ColecoVision+? I’d love a modern console that plays my original ColecoVision cartridges. But the more I think about what Atari could actually offer alongside one, the more complicated that dream becomes. Let’s look at the games, the licenses, and what “Plus” would mean for someone starting without a shelf full of cartridges. Would you buy a ColecoVision+? Let me know what you’d expect it to include - or at least be available to purchase. #retrogaming #atari #vintage #genxgrownup @atari - 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 ColecoVision Plus 01:15 Classic Console Poetry 01:58 After the Hardware 03:08 Imagine an Acquisition 04:06 IP Licenses 04:40 Flashback Precedent 06:07 How Far Might Atari Go? 07:05 Split Conversation 07:57 Aftermarket Impact 09:10 Flashback & Homebrew 10:00 What Do You Want?
