? 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! Time Extension picked up the story on My Arcade’s Gamestation Retro Go (and yes… they used our video as a reference ?), so we’re breaking down what’s coming, what changed since we first saw it, and why this handheld is such a big swing for modern retro. ? Also in today’s roundup: ? 8BitDo’s FlipPad turns your phone into a Game Boy-style handheld controller (portrait mode!), and it’s packed with extra buttons for mapping and emulation fun. ? Plus, CBR dropped a ranked list of retro gaming YouTube channels—including names like AVGN, Scott The Woz, and more—and it got us thinking: who’s on your must-watch list? ?

We’ll break down what’s new, why it matters for preservation, and what retro fans should try first. Then we jump to two more stories making the rounds this week: ????

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. ?

This week on Bit By Bit, we’re unpacking a big shake-up in retro coverage: Time Extension says it’s done covering ModRetro products moving forward — what prompted the decision, what it means for readers, and why it’s sparking such a loud reaction in the community. ? Plus, we’re celebrating some brighter retro vibes: a look back at why 2025 may have been Evercade’s strongest year yet, with so many releases (and hardware) keeping physical retro alive and well. ???? And finally, a major PC gaming story with retro-friendly implications: CD Projekt is selling GOG — what that could mean for DRM-free games, ownership, and preservation going forward. ?? ?

? Atari’s “playable hotel” plans in Phoenix are giving me major bad-vibes. A gaming resort with an esports venue, a sportsbook, nightlife… and an investment push? Yeah—this is one of those ideas that sounds “bold” on paper but feels messy (and risky) the closer you look. ??? In this episode of Bit By Bit, I break down what’s been revealed so far, why it doesn’t sit right with me, and what I think this could mean for Atari’s brand (and retro fans) if it goes sideways. Then we wrap up with more retro news you don’t want to miss! ??? ? Sound off in the comments: Would you actually stay at an Atari Hotel… or is this a hard pass? ? Like • ? Comment • ?
