Coleco was ahead of the curve in the early ’80s with their line of tabletop arcade machines. This Ms. Pac-Man from 1981 is in incredible condition, but it’s missing the battery door and hasn’t been tested. But for only $20 at a used game store, I had to take a shot! Join GenXGrownUp for Perks! […]

??? This week on Bit By Bit, we’re looking at a seriously bold (and seriously pricey) tribute timepiece that wears classic Atari vibes right on your wrist — woodgrain energy and all. Plus, two more retro headlines you’ll want on your radar: AYANEO says 2026 will bring real improvements to customer support and after-sales service, and Digital Eclipse’s Disney Afternoon Collection has reportedly been rated for Switch and “Switch 2”, which could mean a whole new audience for those cartoon-era classics. ??

8BitDo’s NES40 drop is here—and that $499 Retro 68 Keyboard is the lightning rod. We break down what you actually get (aluminum build, Ice Cream Pro Max switches, 300-hour battery), plus the rest of the NES40 set: the limited-run Ultimate 2 N40 controller and the $49.99 Retro Cube 2 speaker. Launch windows, pricing, and the 1,985-unit cap inside. Also in the show: the Friday the 13th devs are back with Halloween: The Game—asymmetrical slasher mayhem with Michael Myers stalking Haddonfield, targeting a 2026 release. What’s new vs F13, and will rights issues stay clear this time? And we check in with Ron Gilbert (Monkey Island): he “never stops thinking about adventure games,” but won’t make another point-and-click just for nostalgia as his roguelike Death By Scrolling nears release—what that means for classic adventure fans.

Valve’s latest CS2 patch detonated the skins economy — reports say up to $3B vanished overnight as Trade Up tweaks let players convert cheap Covert “reds” into knives and gloves, sending prices into freefall. It’s a stark reminder that when platforms change the rules, your “digital assets” can disappear instantly. Plus: Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection drops with a brand-new Fatality Trainer to help you master every finisher, from Babalities to Animalities — launching October 30, 2025. And in retro news, deadmau5 teams up with Atari for a limited-edition Atari 7800 cartridge, Meowingtons Revenge, playable on both the 2600+ and 7800+ systems.
