Launched in 1977, The Atari VCS turned four years old in 1981. The number units sold in '81 more than doubled from the previous year meaning greater than five million homes now had an Atari hooked up to the TV and were potential customers for new games. Slowing from previous years' schedules, Atari only rolled out only nine new games this year - with two of those being Sears exclusives. How did the runaway success of the previous year's Space Invaders influence this new roster AND, how would Atari shift to adapt to new competition? In this video, I'll be ranking every VCS game Atari released in 1981. #atari #retrogaming #tierlist #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 King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Atari 1981 00:54 Taking a Breath 02:07 Asteroids 03:26 Missile Command 04:35 Othello 05:47 Pelé's Soccer 07:12 Steeplechase 08:37 Stellar Track 10:20 Super Breakout 11:23 Video Pinball 12:30 Warlords 13:42 Summary

? This week on Bit By Bit, we’re looking at the TrimUI Smart Pro S and why it’s being called a massive step up from the original. Faster internals, a much-improved D-pad, and even active cooling?! If you’ve been hunting for a sub-$100-ish handheld that feels like a legit “Version 2.0,” this one’s worth a closer look. ?? ? Then we detour into pure maker madness: somebody built a mini PC inside a Red Bull can (yes, really) using a Raspberry Pi 5—loaded up for retro goodness and running straight into a front-end for classics like Pac-Man and more. Absolute gremlin energy. ?? ?? And finally, we hit a nostalgia nerve with a list of Atari games with serious replay value—the kind of titles you can fire up for “just five minutes” and suddenly it’s 2AM. (Asteroids, Missile Command, Yars’ Revenge… you know the deal.) ? ? Question of the week: What’s YOUR most replayable Atari game—and would you daily-drive the Smart Pro S over the original? ? Like, ? subscribe, and share this with a fellow retro addict! #BitByBit #RetroGaming #TrimUI #SmartProS #RetroHandheld #HandheldGaming #Emulation #LinuxGaming #RaspberryPi5 #Recalbox #MiniPC #DIYBuild #3DPrinting #Atari #Atari2600 #GamingNews - LINKS TrimUI Smart Pro S - https://tinyurl.com/mvbx7d9r 5 Worst Handheld Systems - https://tinyurl.com/ybf4z49b Red Bull Mini PC - https://tinyurl.com/ya5d6m5n 1541 PC - https://tinyurl.com/2p9n69ms 10 Best Atari Games With High Replay Value - https://tinyurl.com/2x9ztc3v - 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 Keys of Fury » https://keysoffury.com G'AIM'E Time Crisis » http://genxgrownup.com/gaime King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 00:34 - TrimUI Smart Pro S 04:05 - 5 Worst Handheld Systems 06:32 - Red Bull Mini PC 08:20 - 1541 PC 10:33 - 10 Best Atari Games With High Replay Value
