Atari 2600’s Fast Eddie: No Story, No Power-Ups, NO PROBLEM!

Can a game be TOO simple? See MORE Friday Plays NOW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmlnlyzIo_M&list=PL13zHeyDr6xswcm1YMnJivU0jefJIOLcb&ab_channel=GenXGrownUp Fast Eddie is a video game on the Commodore 64 and Atari 2600, released in 1982, developed by Sirius Studios and published by 20th Century Fox. You play as the titular Fast Eddie, who collects the levels' prizes (Hearts, tanks or fish for instance) and avoids Sneakers, who are blue Waddling Heads. At the top, there's an orange Sneaker named Hi-Top who's too high to jump over at first, but as Eddie collects prizes, Hi-Top gets shorter. After collecting nine prizes, Hi-Top turns normal size and Eddie can grab the key, which allows him to move on to the next level. "You've got to be quick and you've got to be steady The skills you need to play Fast Eddie He's on his way to the top And man can he hop And when you think you're the master You face a disaster 'Cause the Sneakers are coming So you better get running And when you catch all the prizes There's even more sizes Cause when you get to the top and go after the key, You can still get stomped by Hi-Top, you see." —The commercial script for the game - 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

Radio Shack’s 1989 RACEWAY has a SLOT MACHINE Mini-Game?!

In 1989, Radio Shack released this handheld LCD racing game. Oddly, despite when it was released, it almost feels like a late '70s or early '80s release. Watch to see what I mean and if you agree. #retrogaming #handheld #lcd #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 Game & Watch? 00:46 Raceway 01:26 Box & Contents 03:34 Hardware Tour 04:27 Clock Functions 05:27 Manual 06:24 Game A 09:30 Game B 11:21 Summary
