A foldable gaming handheld is officially on the menu ??? This week on Bit By Bit, we’re digging into the OneXSugar “Wallet” concept—what a folding OLED could mean for handheld play, retro emulation, and even that “dual-screen” vibe without a giant hinge gap. Then we pivot to a must-have SNES accessory: the SN Operator. If you’ve got a shelf full of Super Nintendo carts, this thing aims to make playing (and backing up saves) on modern hardware way easier. And finally… a spicy nostalgia check ? We’re talking about a list of classic ’80s games that “aged badly”—and debating what still rules today vs what deserves a remake, a patch, or a respectful retirement. ?
