This week on Bit By Bit, we’re unpacking a big shake-up in retro coverage: Time Extension says it’s done covering ModRetro products moving forward — what prompted the decision, what it means for readers, and why it’s sparking such a loud reaction in the community. ? Plus, we’re celebrating some brighter retro vibes: a look back at why 2025 may have been Evercade’s strongest year yet, with so many releases (and hardware) keeping physical retro alive and well. ???? And finally, a major PC gaming story with retro-friendly implications: CD Projekt is selling GOG — what that could mean for DRM-free games, ownership, and preservation going forward. ?? ? Drop your take in the comments: Should outlets stop covering a company over ethics/politics, or stick strictly to the products? ? Like, ? subscribe, and share the episode with a fellow retro fan!
