My Arcade Pac-Man 45th Devices: Must-Buy or Meh? + More Retro News!

? It’s Pac-Man’s 45th birthday, and My Arcade is celebrating with two new officially licensed devices: the Pac-Man 45th Anniversary Mighty Player and the Pac-Man 45th Anniversary Pocket Player Max. Both units pack classics like PAC-MAN (Classic), PAC-MAN (Speed-Up), PAC-LAND, SUPER PAC-MAN, and PAC & PAL, along with rechargeable batteries and that bold anniversary graffiti-style artwork. ?? In this episode of Bit By Bit, we dig into what you actually get for the asking price, how these new devices stack up against other Pac-Man and mini-arcade releases, and whether they’re worth it for collectors or just hardcore maze-chasers. ? We’re also talking Nintendo Switch Online’s November 2025 update, which adds more NES and Game Boy greats like Ninja Gaiden II, Battletoads, Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters, and Bionic Commando to the ever-growing retro library for subscribers. ? And to round things out, we look at a stunning LEGO ZX Spectrum fan design on LEGO Ideas — a 2,130-piece tribute to Sir Clive Sinclair’s legendary 8-bit micro that helped bring gaming into homes in the 1980s. If you love retro hardware, clever tributes, and staying on top of the latest classic gaming news, you’re in the right place. Hit that ?, subscribe, and share with a fellow retro fan!

Atari Parks RCT3 on Your Shelf! + More Retro News!

? Atari is bringing RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition to physical form for PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2, letting park-building fans finally put this classic sim back on their shelves. We’ll talk about what’s on the disc/cart, why collectors are excited, and whether it’s worth grabbing if you already own the digital version. ?? Over in handheld land, Evercade is lining up a massive drop with five new cartridges hitting in a single month, the biggest wave the platform has seen since launch. We’ll dig into why this release schedule matters, how it grows Evercade’s already stacked library, and what it means for physical-only collectors. ? And because 2025 refuses to stop being weird (in a good way), we’re also getting a brand-new 8-bit GameTank console built around real cartridges and dedicated hardware instead of emulation. If you love chunky pixels, CRTs, and truly old-school design, this thing is absolutely on your radar. If you’re into Atari, Evercade, new retro hardware, and the joy of owning games physically, this episode is for you. Hit play, hang out with us, and stick around for… yep… more retro news! ?
