Strategy X began as a 1981 Konami arcade game before reaching the Atari 2600 in 1983—one of just three games Konami published for the system. It should have been something special. Instead, it feels unfinished, unfair, and barely play-tested. This week on Friday Plays, I revisit a game I once skipped and ask: Am I missing something, or is it really this bad? #atari #retrogaming #atari2600 #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 Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv

Fizz Creations has packed STREET FIGHTER II: Champion Edition into a tiny HDMI dongle—no separate console required. Plug it into your TV, connect the power, grab one of the two wireless controllers, and you’re ready to fight… at least, that’s the promise. In this video, I unbox the Fizz Creations STREET FIGHTER II Duel Plug & Play, get everything connected, and put it through its paces. How do the unusual controllers feel? How well does the game play? And does this console-free setup deliver a satisfying arcade experience—or is “plug and play” doing some heavy lifting? Let’s plug it in and find out! #fightinggames #retrogaming #fizz #genxgrownup @fizzcreations - SHOP https://genxgrownup.com/shopfizz 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 Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv - CHAPTERS 00:00 SF2 PnP 01:25 Box & Contents 04:03 HDMI Brain 05:17 Real Manual 06:16 Controller Design 10:58 Power On 13:20 Ryu 14:55 Dhalsim 15:37 Blanka 16:57 Conclusion

This Tiger Electronics handheld was picked up at Retrocon 2025 in Oaks, PA. We knew for sure it worked, but really couldn't figure out how to play until looking up the instructions online, and it turns out it's actually pretty fun! #retrogaming #handheld #thrift #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 Tiger Electronics 01:25 Hardware Tour 03:51 Cleanup & Batteries 04:47 Power On 06:25 Practice Game 08:58 Serious Game 11:20 Summary
