I’ve had my eye on Tomy’s 1982 PAC-MAN Magnetic Maze for years, and I finally found one at a retro convention. After I showed it in a thrift pickups video, many of you asked to see it in action—so I saved my very first play for the camera. With a tilting maze, a big yellow joystick, rolling PAC-MAN and ghost figures, and fruit that PAC-MAN picks up with the magnet on his head, this is one wonderfully strange take on an arcade classic. Join me as I set it up, figure it out, and see whether it’s as much fun to play as it is to look at. Did you have this or another PAC-MAN toy growing up?

The NeoGeo AES+ was delayed—but how close did it come to disappearing entirely? Plaion reveals how an AI-driven chip shortage threatened the retro console’s future and forced a redesign to keep the project alive. In Bit By Bit episode 153, we also explore Evercade’s upcoming James Pond, The Last Ninja and International Karate collections, an Atari 2600 cartridge build for the Myst demake, and the arrival of Nightdive’s SiN: Reloaded. Then we step inside Pokémon Snap through an unofficial Quest VR project, explore the Atari computer that might have been through JagOS, celebrate the recovery of a long-lost Xevious commercial, and check out GameStop’s Capcom Super Pocket bundle. Does the new explanation restore your confidence in the NeoGeo AES+, or has the wait changed your mind?

Atari has brought back the 2600 and 7800, and now there’s an Intellivision Sprint. So why not complete the collection with a ColecoVision+? I’d love a modern console that plays my original ColecoVision cartridges. But the more I think about what Atari could actually offer alongside one, the more complicated that dream becomes. Let’s look at the games, the licenses, and what “Plus” would mean for someone starting without a shelf full of cartridges. Would you buy a ColecoVision+? Let me know what you’d expect it to include - or at least be available to purchase. #retrogaming #atari #vintage #genxgrownup @atari - 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 ColecoVision Plus 01:15 Classic Console Poetry 01:58 After the Hardware 03:08 Imagine an Acquisition 04:06 IP Licenses 04:40 Flashback Precedent 06:07 How Far Might Atari Go? 07:05 Split Conversation 07:57 Aftermarket Impact 09:10 Flashback & Homebrew 10:00 What Do You Want?

AIRLOCK for the ATARI 2600 has limited content, awkward controls, crude collision detection, and a game that can be completed in about two minutes. So why did I keep coming back? In this Friday Plays, I take on Data Age’s much-maligned submarine escape game, tackle its hardest difficulty setting, and discover that sometimes the real fun begins after you already know how to win. #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
