This 1979 Baseball Game Was Built for TWO I Found a TWO-PLAYER Baseball Game from 1979 This 1979 Electronic Baseball Game STILL WORKS! Released in 1979, Entex Baseball 2 was built around something many electronic games of the era overlooked: playing with another person. One player bats while the other secretly selects pitches using a separate wired controller. I found this Sears-branded example at a local vintage toy shop, cleaned it up, figured out how it works, and played a complete game to see whether this nearly fifty-year-old tabletop baseball game still has some competition left in it. #retrogaming #handheld #baseball #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 Baseball 2 01:00 Sears Sequel 01:45 Box & Contents 04:54 Hardware Tour 08:14 Cleanup 09:56 Power On 12:25 Two-Player 16:21 Conclusion

Atari has struck a deal to develop movies based on ten of its classic games—but how do you turn Pong, Breakout, Asteroids, or Centipede into a full-length film? Is Hollywood sitting on a gold mine of untapped retro gaming ideas, or has it officially run out of stories? We also look at original Xbox games making the jump to PC, LEGO’s surprisingly playable Donkey Kong arcade cabinet, Anbernic’s modern take on the Game Boy Advance SP, experimental Dreamcast support for MiSTer FPGA, a new 16-bit game from veteran Amiga developers, the FBI’s investigation into malware-infected Steam games, and the newly revealed Mangmi Air Y handhelds.

In this video, we go back to 1978 and the story behind Space Invaders: how one Japanese designer, Tomohiro Nishikado, built the game (and even the hardware to run it), why those aliens speed up as you shoot them, and how a simple shooter turned arcades into a global obsession. Where the idea came from The happy accident that created the game's famous tension How it took over arcades, pizza parlors, and bowling alleys everywhere Why it still matters to anyone who ever begged for one more quarter If you spent your childhood hunched over a cabinet with a pocket full of change, this one's for you. #SpaceInvaders #RetroGaming #ArcadeHistory #GenX #80sNostalgia #VideoGameHistory #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 Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv - CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 00:30 - Welcome 00:50 - Tomohiro Nishikado 02:46 - Western Gun 03:48 - Discrete Circuit Boards 04:39 - Creation of Space Invaders 05:35 - A Happy Accident 06:17 - Space Invaders Launches 06:47 - Atari 2600 Impact 07:19 - Impact 08:05 - Close

Jon is a Donkey Kong fanatic, pure and simple. Yet somehow, this 2006 mod for the original Donkey Kong arcade cabinet flew under his radar until a recent trip to the Daytona Arcade Museum, where one of the cabinets was outfitted with it. It adds new screens and cut-scenes that were never there, and tweaks […]
