Homebrew is absolutely on a roll in 2026 ?? Mega Cat Studios is kicking off the year with a triple physical-cart drop for classic Nintendo hardware—Super Fanger (SNES) plus Plyuk and Old Towers (NES). Three new reasons to dust off the old consoles? Yes please. ?? Plus, Nintendo fans get a surprising “free” win: Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance (a pricey GameCube gem) is essentially available via Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack—but there’s a catch you’ll want to hear about. And because we’re living our best retro timeline, we take a quick nostalgia detour into forgotten ‘70s hits like Shark Jaws, Sea Wolf, Combat, Space Wars, and Galaxian—games that were huge once… and then poof. ??? ? Drop a comment: are you buying modern homebrew on real carts, or sticking to emulation? #RetroGaming #NES #SNES #Homebrew #MegaCatStudios #NintendoSwitchOnline #Switch2 #FireEmblem #GameCube #ArcadeGames #ClassicGaming #BitByBit - LINKS Mega Cat Studios New Releases - https://tinyurl.com/4nzajdsz Floppy Charger - https://tinyurl.com/3ausvmhr NSO - Fire Emblem - https://tinyurl.com/3zjmzewe Doom Crockpot - https://tinyurl.com/ya3uwvuk 5 Video Games That No One Remembers - https://tinyurl.com/mr335dwa - 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 G'AIM'E Time Crisis » http://genxgrownup.com/gaime King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 0:33 - Mega Cat Studios New Releases 2:30 - Floppy Charger 4:19 - NSO - Fire Emblem 5:53 - Doom Crockpot 7:03 - 5 Video Games That No One Remembers

? Atari Hotel Hits GAME OVER — and Vegas isn’t getting its joystick-themed check-in after all. This week we break down the latest report that the Atari-branded Las Vegas hotel plans have been scrapped, what that likely means for the project, and why this one fizzled after so much hype. ?? Then we jump into a wild slice of gaming/tech history: a Steve Jobs–related Atari “Astrochart” plan is among new items headed to auction. Vintage Apple + Atari weirdness? Yes please. ?? ?? And finally, your Evercade gets a nice boost: the first Evercade firmware update of 2026 brings Neo Geo options (hello DIP switches / AES tweaks) plus Atari 2600 improvements—the kind of quality-of-life stuff retro fans actually notice. ?

? This week on Bit By Bit, we’re looking at the TrimUI Smart Pro S and why it’s being called a massive step up from the original. Faster internals, a much-improved D-pad, and even active cooling?! If you’ve been hunting for a sub-$100-ish handheld that feels like a legit “Version 2.0,” this one’s worth a closer look. ?? ? Then we detour into pure maker madness: somebody built a mini PC inside a Red Bull can (yes, really) using a Raspberry Pi 5—loaded up for retro goodness and running straight into a front-end for classics like Pac-Man and more. Absolute gremlin energy. ?? ?? And finally, we hit a nostalgia nerve with a list of Atari games with serious replay value—the kind of titles you can fire up for “just five minutes” and suddenly it’s 2AM. (Asteroids, Missile Command, Yars’ Revenge… you know the deal.) ? ? Question of the week: What’s YOUR most replayable Atari game—and would you daily-drive the Smart Pro S over the original? ?

?? Our My Arcade coverage officially made it into the retro news cycle!

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. ? Sound off in the comments: Would you buy a foldable handheld? Would you pick up an SN Operator? Which ’80s game holds up the BEST today? ? Like, ? subscribe, and share this with a fellow retro fan!
