Dimitris “Modern Vintage Gamer” Giannakis is leaving Limited Run Games and joining Atari-owned Digital Eclipse—a big get for preservation-minded retro fans. MVG co-built LRG’s Carbon Engine; now he’s headed to Digital Eclipse (of Atari 50 and the Gold Master Series fame). What does this mean for future collections and restorations? Let’s break it down. We also cover a retail shake-up: Costco has removed Xbox listings in the US and UK and, per a rep, doesn’t plan to carry Series X|S “going forward,” calling it a business decision. This lands right before Microsoft’s October 3 price hike (Series X to $649.99, Series S to $399.99). We unpack what this means for Xbox visibility going into holiday 2025. Finally, Eden, the Nintendo Switch emulator that hit Google Play two weeks ago, was pulled from the store. Reporting points to a wave of Nintendo DMCA notices; the devs say they’ll appeal while development continues off-store. We look at what happened and what it signals for emulation on Android. ? Drop your takes: • Will MVG at Atari’s Digital Eclipse raise the bar for classic comps? • Does Costco’s move signal deeper retail headwinds for Xbox? • Is the Play Store a viable home for emulators after Eden’s removal?

Bubsy is back… and somehow this comeback is looking way more interesting than anyone expected ?? In this week’s Bit By Bit, we’re digging into Bubsy 4D and why its “subvert expectations” energy might actually land when it hits PC + consoles on May 22, 2026. Then we pivot to some seriously cool retro hardware: an Atari ST mini-style build called the MiniST—an FPGA-powered passion project with MiSTeryNano vibes, HDMI output, and that clean black wedge look… but with an initial run of only five units ??? And finally, we take a respectful moment for the retro community as New Wave Toys shares a difficult update following the passing of founder Shilo Prychak. We’ll talk about what’s been shared, what it could mean for future projects, and why his work mattered to so many of us ??? ?
