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. ?? ? Drop your take in the comments: Should outlets stop covering a company over ethics/politics, or stick strictly to the products? ? Like, ? subscribe, and share the episode with a fellow retro fan!

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. The mod allegedly helped spread Nintendo Switch game files and ignored the lawsuit — and now the company wants to make a very expensive example out of him. 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. It’s a big week for retro gaming, legal drama, and emulation evolution — let’s dig into it! ?
