Hey there, welcome back to GenXGrownUp — I’m George, and this is Bit By Bit! Nintendo is at it again, this time going after a Reddit moderator with a massive $4.5 million piracy claim.

But that’s not the only retro gaming news this week! Namco is bringing back history with its very first in-house arcade game — designed by none other than the creator of Pac-Man himself — as part of the latest Arcade Archives release. And to top it off, the MAME emulator just got a big update, now supporting ARM-based Windows devices, which could open the door for smoother emulation on handheld PCs and future retro handhelds.
