This 1979 Baseball Game Was Built for TWO I Found a TWO-PLAYER Baseball Game from 1979 This 1979 Electronic Baseball Game STILL WORKS! Released in 1979, Entex Baseball 2 was built around something many electronic games of the era overlooked: playing with another person. One player bats while the other secretly selects pitches using a separate wired controller. I found this Sears-branded example at a local vintage toy shop, cleaned it up, figured out how it works, and played a complete game to see whether this nearly fifty-year-old tabletop baseball game still has some competition left in it. #retrogaming #handheld #baseball #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 Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Baseball 2 01:00 Sears Sequel 01:45 Box & Contents 04:54 Hardware Tour 08:14 Cleanup 09:56 Power On 12:25 Two-Player 16:21 Conclusion

Shop Fightbox: https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox This week on Friday Plays, I take to the skies with Snoopy and the Red Baron for the Atari 2600. Released late in the console’s original life, this licensed Peanuts game looks surprisingly polished and turns Snoopy’s famous Flying Ace routine into a colorful dogfight filled with falling treats, risky pickups, and one very good idea Atari may have asked to carry the entire game.

Before consoles, before cartridges, before anyone had a joystick in their living room, there was Pong. In 1972, a young Atari engineer named Allan Alcorn was handed what he thought was a simple training exercise by co-founder Nolan Bushnell, build a basic ping-pong game to learn the hardware. Instead, he created the game that launched the video game industry. In this video, we dig into the origin story of Pong, from its predecessors to its home console release through Sears in 1975 — and why this ridiculously simple game became the spark that put a controller in the hands of an entire generation. If you grew up chasing that little white square across the screen, this one's for you. #videogamehistory #atari #pong #atari-pong #arcadehistory #arcadegames - 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 Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 00:35 - Willie Higinbotham 01:43 - Ralph E Baer 02:19 - Magnavox Odyssey 03:49 - Atari 06:10 - Lawsuits 06:58 - Closing

The CULTIC live playthrough continues this Thursday! This week, we’re finishing off The Mining Town map and then heading straight into The Mine, because apparently the only thing worse than fighting cultists in a creepy town is following them underground where everything is darker, tighter, and probably full of things trying to kill us. Join the GXG crew as we keep blasting our way through CULTIC’s brutal retro FPS chaos, survive more cultist madness, and find out what horrors are waiting below the surface. Come hang out, chat, and help guide me through another night of old-school shooter mayhem! #CULTIC #BoomerShooter #RetroFPS #IndieGames #HorrorFPS #PCGaming #LiveGameplay #GenXGrownUp

Microsoft’s latest round of gaming layoffs has reportedly gutted id Software, drastically reducing the legendary studio behind DOOM and Quake—and co-founder John Carmack admits his prediction that Microsoft would be a good steward of the company isn’t aging particularly well. Plus, Activision and Imagic classics are packing a colorful new Super Pocket, someone has successfully booted Linux on the Atari Jaguar, and a massive LEGO Donkey Kong arcade set has apparently leaked ahead of its official reveal. We’re also covering Commodore’s surprisingly successful Callback phone, Atari’s new Centipede Swarm for Amazon Luna, four new Game Boy and Game Boy Advance additions to Nintendo Switch Online, and Valve’s simple official fix for the Steam Machine’s dreaded “Red Line of Death.” Which story surprised you the most?
