Jon sits down with Vectrex Lead Manager, David Oghia, to dig into the details of this forthcoming reproduction console. Remember 1982, the Vectrex is the console that made many gamers dream. With its look like a small arcade machine, its independent screen and above all the vector graphics, even 40 years later, the Vectrex is still great. #retrogaming #vectrex #genxgrownup - LINKS Kickstarter » https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1852390947/vectrex-mini Vectrex Site » https://vectrex.com Full Interview Podcast » https://pca.st/8izq2v4i - 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 King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome 01:25 Inspiration? 04:07 Gamescom 06:05 Non-CRT 08:25 Controller 10:16 Screen Overlays 11:38 The Games 14:55 Date & Price 16:33 Backer Add-Ons 20:30 Created by a Fan 20:41 Hardware 22:30 Vector Clock 23:32 Size 26:35 Comparison Plan 28:03 Farewell

How well can you do in Fire Fighter without using a drop of water? See MORE Friday Plays NOW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tWfm2jXaC0&list=PL13zHeyDr6xswcm1YMnJivU0jefJIOLcb&ab_channel=GenXGrownUp Fire Fighter is a video game written by Brad Stewart for the Atari 2600 published by Imagic in 1982. The player uses fire fighting equipment in an attempt to extinguish the fire in a tall building and rescue the occupant. The player moves a fire fighter around a non-scrolling screen to spray water on fires in a building, the size of which may vary between levels depending on options selected by the player. If the fire rises high enough, the person will wait on the roof until the fire burns itself out. At any time, the player can extend a ladder from a fire truck to rescue the person from the building so long as no fire exists on that floor. #atari #retrogaming #fridayplays #genxgrownup - LINKS Wikipedia » https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_Fighter_(video_game) - 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 King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com

The Atari 5200 SuperSystem or simply Atari 5200 is a home video game console introduced in 1982 by Atari, Inc. as a higher-end complement for the popular Atari Video Computer System. The VCS was renamed to the Atari 2600 at the time of the 5200’s launch. Created to compete with Mattel’s Intellivision, the 5200 wound […]

? This week on Bit By Bit, we’re looking at the TrimUI Smart Pro S and why it’s being called a massive step up from the original. Faster internals, a much-improved D-pad, and even active cooling?! If you’ve been hunting for a sub-$100-ish handheld that feels like a legit “Version 2.0,” this one’s worth a closer look. ?? ? Then we detour into pure maker madness: somebody built a mini PC inside a Red Bull can (yes, really) using a Raspberry Pi 5—loaded up for retro goodness and running straight into a front-end for classics like Pac-Man and more. Absolute gremlin energy. ?? ?? And finally, we hit a nostalgia nerve with a list of Atari games with serious replay value—the kind of titles you can fire up for “just five minutes” and suddenly it’s 2AM. (Asteroids, Missile Command, Yars’ Revenge… you know the deal.) ? ? Question of the week: What’s YOUR most replayable Atari game—and would you daily-drive the Smart Pro S over the original? ?
