Jon scored a 1983 Arcade Mania at the Thrift Shop - DOES IT WORK? ? MORE Thrift Finds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kndd5tYyNEk&list=PL13zHeyDr6xvKE5HBOAcEgdIs1cqUt6t4&ab_channel=GenXGrownUp Arcade Mania is a skill and strategy game that features a mini arcade machine that's simple to operate, a challenge to play, and totally portable, so you can play a real honest-to-goodness arcade game away from an arcade! To challenge THE MACHINE, you must react with lightning-fast fingers. Either to battle alien raiders, to track down a slithering serpent, to blast away at threatening missiles, or to run away from a very hungry monster. It takes skill to score points on THE MACHINE but it takes strategy to win the game. For Arcade Mania challenges you to collect chips during a match... and chips are accumulated either by winning on THE MACHINE yourself or by betting successfully on other players tackling THE MACHINE. You'll discover that WHO to bet on and HOW MUCH to bet takes clever planning and plotting. #boardgames #retrogaming #thrift #genxgrownup ? S H O P (affiliate) http://genxgrownup.com/amazon ?

Games are written in assembly, or a mix of C and assembly. The special hardware features of the GameTank - such as the Sprite Copy mechanism and the Audio Coprocessor - streamline the process of writing fun and richly animated games. #retrogaming #crowdfunding #diybuild #genxgrownup @gametank-console - LINKS GameTank Crowdfunding » https://genxgrownup.com/gametank GameTank Home » http://gametank.zone - 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 Keys of Fury » https://keysoffury.com G'AIM'E Time Crisis » http://genxgrownup.com/gaime King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 GameTank 00:55 Fantasy Goes Physical 03:12 Demo Kit Contents 05:03 Hardware Tour 06:35 Manual 07:09 Controller & Carts 08:28 Benefits 09:44 Power On 10:51 Cubicle Knight 12:57 A Very Hard Game 13:38 Accursed Fiend 15:54 Tanks! 16:34 Brick Battle 17:41 Summary

For better or worse, when Atari & PLAION designed the controller for the Intellivision Sprint, they made it match the original almost exactly. If you love that control disc, that's great news. If you DON'T love that control disc, you may be looking for options. But whether you love or hate the Sprint's controller, this new upgrade kit likely includes something worth checking out. #atari #intellivision #retrogaming #genxgrownup cards 00:35 old intv stick 05:00 cx balls - LINKS Paul's Store » https://www.etsy.com/shop/Innovative3DShop Sprint Stick Kit » https://www.etsy.com/listing/4479337383/sprint-stick-kit-for-new-intellivision Sprint Ball Tops » https://www.etsy.com/listing/4479381126/intellivision-sprint-ball-topper-stand GSG Thumbstick » https://www.etsy.com/listing/4426504607/gamestation-go-d-pad-thumbstick-adapter GSG 40mm Super Spinner » https://www.etsy.com/shop/Innovative3DShop?ref=dashboard-header&section_id=55853536 GSG 37mm Super Spinner » https://www.etsy.com/listing/4427102457/game-station-go-spinner-kit-37mm Intellivision Selection » https://www.etsy.com/shop/Innovative3DShop?ref=seller-platform- NES Refurb » https://www.etsy.com/listing/4300832858/classic-nes-modernizer-and-refurbishment NES Grip » https://www.etsy.com/listing/4300612359/classic-nes-grip-attachment-for-a Screw-In Sticks » https://www.etsy.com/listing/1824490859/joystick-accessory-set-for-the-atari - SHOP Intellivision Sprint » https://amzn.to/4c6BB5Q 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 King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Sprint Control 01:17 Sprint Stick Kit 01:50 Disc Installation 03:25 One: Disc 03:50 Two: Stick/Ball 05:49 Three: Thumbstick 06:50 Four: Ringpad 08:53 Five: Nub/Ball 11:39 Playtesting 15:50 Summary
