Did Sony just give retro gaming a massive boost? ? This week on Bit By Bit, we’re talking about Sony’s plan to end physical disc production for new PlayStation games starting in 2028 and why that could make retro gaming, physical media, and old-school collecting even more important. We also dig into Evercade’s new Visco Arcade collections, the increasingly strange 3DO revival drama, a hidden Banjo-Kazooie musical surprise, a wild E-Ink Game Boy project, Donkey Kong 64 getting a native PC port, and the debate over AI-generated FPGA cores. If you love retro games, physical media, game preservation, weird hardware, and the occasional industry faceplant, this one’s packed. #RetroGaming #PlayStation #PhysicalGames #Evercade #BitByBit - LINKS Sony Physical Media - https://tinyurl.com/yyeve5mt Evercade Visco Arcade - https://tinyurl.com/4hru68ek 3DO Comeback Part 1 - https://tinyurl.com/3hz3834s 3DO Comeback Part 2 - https://tinyurl.com/yat5zvtr Banjo-Kazooie Secrets - https://tinyurl.com/ystfu725 E-Ink Game Boy - https://tinyurl.com/4t2awau9 Donkey Kong 64 Native PC Port - https://tinyurl.com/2h36fnc9 AI FPGA Cores - https://tinyurl.com/2zszuj8u - 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 00:22 - Sony Physical Media 06:08 - Evercade Visco Arcade 07:31 - 3DO Comeback Part 1 09:17 - 3DO Comeback Part 2 10:58 - Banjo-Kazooie Secrets 13:13 - E-Ink Game Boy 14:13 - Donkey Kong 64 Native PC Port 15:05 - AI FPGA Cores

Try Afterplay: https://genxgrownup.com/afterplay In 1980, Tomytronic released Cosmic Combat, a dedicated electronic handheld space shooter with one very specific goal: keep fighting until you reach victory. I recently thrifted this 46-year-old handheld, so in this video we clean it up, take a close look at this wonderfully retro piece of electronic gaming history, fire it back up, and find out what it takes to actually beat Cosmic Combat. Unlike so many early electronic games built around chasing an endless high score, this one gives you something to shoot for — and if we can reach 999 points, there’s even a little victory celebration waiting for us. Cosmic Combat was released by Tomy in 1980, made in Japan, and is generally identified as model 7602. It runs on four C-cell batteries and comes from that fascinating period when dedicated electronic games were finding all kinds of creative ways to put an arcade-style experience into your hands. Can this thrift-store survivor still deliver its intended victory 46 years later? Let’s find out. #retrogaming #handheld #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 Cosmic Combat 00:45 Galaxian Note 01:48 Hardware Tour 03:05 Manual 04:30 Clean-Up 06:10 Power On 06:45 Difficulty 1 07:48 Difficulty 2 08:30 Run to 999 12:20 Summary

Tonight we're jumping into BROFORCE, the gloriously over-the-top run-and-gun action game from Free Lives and Devolver Digital! Broforce throws us into destructible levels packed with ridiculous weapons, massive explosions, action-movie-inspired heroes, and what appears to be a complete disregard for the concept of “too much.” This is my first real dive into the campaign, so we're starting from the beginning and seeing just how far the Broforce can take us. If this one clicks, we may keep the campaign going on future Thursday streams. Grab a seat, jump into the chat, and prepare for excessive force in the name of freedom! #Broforce #RetroGaming #RunAndGun #IndieGames #GamingLive

The Atari 8-bit line of home computers were my introduction to the wonderful world of home computing — and a worthy successor to the Atari 2600 as my primary gaming device.
