The blood will flow once again—digitally, of course! Digital Eclipse, now owned by Atari, is bringing Mortal Kombat back with the Legacy Kollection, a faithful restoration of the original trilogy of arcade classics. But that's not all in the world of retro and gaming news… We also dive into Atari’s puzzling decision to rebrand a failed Kickstarter game (Mr. Run and Jump) as the spiritual successor to Adventure. Is this a bold move or just nostalgia bait? Plus, we’ve got a look at the first serious rivals to the Nintendo Switch 2: the new Xbox handheld prototypes are real, and they look ready to compete! Hit play for all the pixel-packed updates in this week’s roundup of retro gaming and beyond! ?

G'AIM'E Campiagn » https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tasseidenki/gaime-plug-and-play-time-crisis-gun-system-for-modern-tvs We sent George to the Long Island Retro Gaming 2025 show to get some in-person, hands-on time with G'AIM'E's new offiically Namco-licensed light gun plug-and-play. Tassei Denki’s vision with G’AIM’E is to take the first step towards reviving classic light-gun controllers. In today’s gaming world, where racing wheels, fight sticks, and other specialized controllers thrive, it feels wrong that light-guns have all but disappeared from the modern games room. @LIRetroGaming @bandainamcoentertainment #retrogaming #namco #genxgrownup - LINKS https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tasseidenki/gaime-plug-and-play-time-crisis-gun-system-for-modern-tvs - 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 00:00 As Advertised 00:50 Long Island Retro 01:35 First Impressions 02:45 Officially Licensed 03:20 Screens & Config 04:20 The Games 05:25 Bundles 06:35 Foot Pedal 07:35 Gun Feel & Dates 08:30 Summary

If you ever dismissed this Atari shooter as being too simple, it deserves another look! ? MORE Friday Plays to Watch NOW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_fm0lE77Go&list=PL13zHeyDr6xswcm1YMnJivU0jefJIOLcb&ab_channel=GenXGrownUp The game plays like a fixed shooter, with the player controlling a tank firing at giant worms. The tank auto scrolls up as the worms and blocks move down. Every time all the worms are wiped out, a new set spawns at the top of the screen. The pagoda can be shot to clear all the worms or rammed into by the tank to receive a fuel bonus. There are 99 waves with each wave starting with one worm with six at the end of the wave. #atari #retrogaming #genxgrownup ??? SHOP ??? http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch ???
