This week on Bit By Bit, we’re looking at two unexpected portable retro systems: THEC64 Handheld and The Spectrum Handheld. Classic computer nostalgia is going portable, but are these must-have handhelds or just another retro curiosity? Plus, we’ve got more retro gaming news, including the LEGO SEGA Genesis set, Super ZSNES, Neo Geo AES+ preorder updates, Commodore’s new C64C lineup, Mortal Kombat krossplay, Pixel FX’s Morph 2K upscaler, and new Evercade collections. ?? #BitByBit #RetroGaming #C64 #TheSpectrum #RetroHandhelds #SEGA #NeoGeo #Evercade - LINKS C64/Spectrum Handhelds - https://tinyurl.com/mrx8f2th Lego Sega - https://tinyurl.com/586kf5ac Super ZSNES - https://tinyurl.com/3rfvax9b Plaion Neo Geo Order Issues - https://tinyurl.com/27b7nz9v GXG Neo Geo Store - https://a.co/d/0bbwxEml New C64 Old Molds - https://tinyurl.com/6847hv6s MK Legacy Kollection Update - https://tinyurl.com/zz27hzma New 2K Upscaler - https://tinyurl.com/5237nvhw 2 New Evercade Cart Collections - https://tinyurl.com/mu8zd7ur - 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 0:22 - C64/Spectrum Handhelds 5:40 - Lego Sega 7:20 - Super ZSNES 8:14 - Plaion Neo Geo Order Issues 9:55 - GXG Neo Geo Store 11:08 - New C64 Old Molds 12:52 - MK Legacy Kollection Update 14:40 - New 2K Upscaler 17:09 - 2 New Evercade Cart Collections

We’re also looking at new Virtual Boy games on Nintendo Switch Online, Evercade’s final Activision collection, a hidden Wilhelm scream in the Steam Controller, a lost Atari Lynx-style Rampage game, California’s game preservation bill, a Crazy Taxi Game Boy demake, and a GoldenEye-inspired Steam freebie. It’s business drama, retro preservation, weird controller secrets, and classic gaming surprises — all packed into this week’s Bit By Bit! #BitByBit #RetroGaming #GameStop #eBay #NintendoSwitchOnline #VirtualBoy #Evercade #AtariLynx #GamePreservation #GoldenEye - LINKS Ebay Says No - https://tinyurl.com/mwztb4ex NSO Virtual Boy Games - https://tinyurl.com/bdf7vate New Evercade Carts - https://tinyurl.com/4yeku7ma Wilhelm Steam Scream - https://tinyurl.com/5n6re8ju Monster Demolition - https://tinyurl.com/va9tkx5s New Gaming law - https://tinyurl.com/ynrcs8uu Crazy Taxi Demake - https://tinyurl.com/6vappcme Free Goldeneye - https://tinyurl.com/mr3zwa26 - 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 0:22 - Ebay Says No 3:48 - NSO Virtual Boy Games 5:52 - New Evercade Carts 7:57 - Wilhelm Steam Scream 10:16 - Monster Demolition 12:09 - New Gaming law 13:43 - Crazy Taxi Demake 15:05 - Free Goldeneye

Check out Afterplay: https://genxgrownup.com/afterplay Shop for Gamer Fun » https://amzn.to/4vNjTx8 My Arcade’s All-Star Sports Gamer Fun is the first release I’ve been able to get hands-on with from the new Gamer Fun line — and while the sports games are part of the story, the hardware may be the bigger deal. After seeing this new form factor at CES 2026, including a Pac-Man version still to come, I wanted to find out how the screen, controls, size, and overall feel hold up — and what this first Gamer Fun device might tell us about future My Arcade releases. #retrogaming #handheld #sports #genxgrownup @MyArcaderetro - SHOP Shop Gamer Fun » https://amzn.to/4vNjTx8 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 Gamer Fun 02:08 Box & Contents 04:58 Hardware Tour 08:52 Battery 10:30 Power/Volume/Brightness 12:27 Goal! 14:24 Bases Loaded 3 16:15 Trampoline 18:19 Cut the Fruit 19:21 Everybody Fishing 20:15 Go Downstairs 21:03 Good Fisherman 21:29 Happy Miner 22:13 Highway Racing 23:11 Lightning Gunner 23:52 Mine Clearance 25:04 Pastry Party 25:32 Pinball 27:06 Spot Difference 28:16 Trampoline Goblin 28:44 Turn Stone 29:29 Summary

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
