Atari on a Game Boy… in 2025? Yep. ModRetro’s new Atari ’90s Rewind Collection drops three classics—Asteroids, Centipede, and Super Breakout—remastered in full color with fresh soundtracks on the Chromatic cartridge system, priced at $99.99. It’s designed for Chromatic but also works on original GB/GBC and Analogue Pocket, giving handheld retro a legit glow-up. Plus: Saturn fans—there’s a new SAROO firmware with slick features (cheats, media players, Photo CD support, config editing), but early reports say proceed with caution due to caveats and instability. We’ll unpack what’s great and what to skip—at least for now. And to cap it off, the Indie Horror Showcase 2025 returns Oct 23 at 10am PT / 1pm ET, co-hosted by John Wolfe and BigGaming64, with fresh reveals from horror publishers. We’ll preview what to watch. If you dig retro news with real talk, hit like & subscribe, and drop your take: colorized Atari on GB—genius or gimmick?

Chopper Command is a horizontally scrolling shooter video game released by Activision for the Atari 2600 in June 1982. It was written by Bob Whitehead. The player flies a helicopter left and right over a scrolling, wraparound landscape, shooting down enemy airplanes to protect a convoy of trucks below. In Chopper Command, the player controls a military helicopter in a desert scenario protecting a convoy of trucks. The goal is to destroy all enemy fighter jets and helicopters that attack the player's helicopter and the friendly trucks traveling below, ending the current wave. The game ends when the player loses all of his or her lives or reaches 999,999 points. A radar, called a Long Range Scanner in the instruction manual, shows all enemies, including those not visible on the main screen, similar to Defender . The player's helicopter is destroyed if it collides with an enemy aircraft or a truck (which destroys the truck as well) or is shot by an enemy. Each enemy bullet splits in two, one going up and one going down. Using the "A" difficulty level results in a slower player shot. Each enemy helicopter is 100 points and each enemy jet is 200 points. After each wave, bonus points are awarded for remaining trucks. A player who achieved 10,000 points could send in a photo of the TV screen and receive a "Chopper Commandos" patch. #atari #retrogaming #activision #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 Keys of Fury » https://keysoffury.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com
