I’ve had my eye on Tomy’s 1982 PAC-MAN Magnetic Maze for years, and I finally found one at a retro convention. After I showed it in a thrift pickups video, many of you asked to see it in action—so I saved my very first play for the camera. With a tilting maze, a big yellow joystick, rolling PAC-MAN and ghost figures, and fruit that PAC-MAN picks up with the magnet on his head, this is one wonderfully strange take on an arcade classic. Join me as I set it up, figure it out, and see whether it’s as much fun to play as it is to look at. Did you have this or another PAC-MAN toy growing up?

Microsoft’s latest round of gaming layoffs has reportedly gutted id Software, drastically reducing the legendary studio behind DOOM and Quake—and co-founder John Carmack admits his prediction that Microsoft would be a good steward of the company isn’t aging particularly well. Plus, Activision and Imagic classics are packing a colorful new Super Pocket, someone has successfully booted Linux on the Atari Jaguar, and a massive LEGO Donkey Kong arcade set has apparently leaked ahead of its official reveal. We’re also covering Commodore’s surprisingly successful Callback phone, Atari’s new Centipede Swarm for Amazon Luna, four new Game Boy and Game Boy Advance additions to Nintendo Switch Online, and Valve’s simple official fix for the Steam Machine’s dreaded “Red Line of Death.” Which story surprised you the most?

Test drive Afterplay » https://genxgrownup.com/afterplay This 2005 Excalibur Space Invaders Mini Arcade looked too cool to leave behind at a toy show — even if I wasn’t completely sure it worked. Turns out, it only partially works. So today I’m cleaning it up, testing it, and trying to figure out whether this little tabletop arcade can be rescued. It has the look, it has the charm, and it definitely has a problem. But can I bring this broken invader back to life? #retrogaming #handheld #vintage #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 Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Thrifted Invaders 02:35 Hardware Tour 03:43 Power On & Test 06:13 Cleaning 10:05 Reset Button 11:48 Shenanigans 12:44 Diminishing Returns 13:30 Exemplar 14:15 Re-Assembled 15:17 Attempted Play 16:55 Are You the One?

We’re jumping into CULTIC, a gritty retro-inspired FPS from Jasozz Games and 3D Realms that throws us into a twisted cult, hands us guns and dynamite, and dares us to survive. This one has all the right ingredients for a GenXGrownUp livestream: old-school shooter energy, dark horror atmosphere, fast combat, chunky pixel style, and probably more panic-reloading than I’d like to admit. Join us live as we crawl out of the grave and find out if CULTIC really is one of the best modern boomer shooters we somehow missed. Grab a snack, hang out with the GXG crew, and help us blast our way through the cultists! #CULTIC #RetroFPS #BoomerShooter #GenXGrownUp #LiveStream
