Growing up watching Leonard Nimoy’s “In Search Of…,” I learned that the Bermuda Triangle was somewhere you probably ought to avoid. So naturally, this week I’m heading straight into it—with an Atari 2600 submarine! Requested by viewer TeeDoh Jackson, Data Age’s Bermuda Triangle sends me treasure hunting through a mysterious underwater city. There are sharks, squid, mines, and some things on the ocean floor that are better left alone. I enjoy the arcade action, but once I cross 10,000 points, this expedition gets a LOT more dangerous. #atari #retrogaming #vintage #genxgrownup - 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 Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv

Shop Wonderfitter: https://genxgrownup.com/wonder Light gun gaming with a little extra KICK! I put the Wonderfitter M17 through its paces, playing on my phone and bringing the action to the TV in big-screen mode.

Atari’s classic 800XL home computer is making a comeback! Newly announced by Atari, THE 800XL from Retro Games Ltd. brings a full-sized mechanical keyboard, a working cartridge slot, and built-in Atari BASIC together with HDMI and modern gaming conveniences. In this announcement editorial, I take a look at what’s been revealed, what stands out, and why bringing back the computer experience makes this more interesting than just another box of retro games. THE 800XL includes 25 built-in games, USB loading for cartridge, disk, and cassette images, and announced software support for Atari’s 400, 800, XL, and XE computers, plus Atari 5200 games. Four save slots per game and up to 30 seconds of rewind bring some modern help to those vintage challenges. U.S. preorders opened October 8, 2026, at $219.99, with shipping scheduled to begin April 23, 2027. The package includes a THECXSTICK joystick. Did you grow up with an Atari computer? And would you use this for games, BASIC programming, or dusting off your old cartridges? Let me know in the comments!

In this video, we go back to 1978 and the story behind Space Invaders: how one Japanese designer, Tomohiro Nishikado, built the game (and even the hardware to run it), why those aliens speed up as you shoot them, and how a simple shooter turned arcades into a global obsession. Where the idea came from The happy accident that created the game's famous tension How it took over arcades, pizza parlors, and bowling alleys everywhere Why it still matters to anyone who ever begged for one more quarter If you spent your childhood hunched over a cabinet with a pocket full of change, this one's for you. #SpaceInvaders #RetroGaming #ArcadeHistory #GenX #80sNostalgia #VideoGameHistory #genxgrownup - 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 Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv - CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 00:30 - Welcome 00:50 - Tomohiro Nishikado 02:46 - Western Gun 03:48 - Discrete Circuit Boards 04:39 - Creation of Space Invaders 05:35 - A Happy Accident 06:17 - Space Invaders Launches 06:47 - Atari 2600 Impact 07:19 - Impact 08:05 - Close
