This week on Bit By Bit, Atari makes another big retro move by acquiring rights tied to the first five Wizardry games. Is this just another classic IP pickup, or is Atari quietly building something much bigger in the retro gaming space? We’re also covering Super Mario 64 running on Game Boy Advance, a pocket-sized GameCube made from real Nintendo hardware, the delayed THEA1200 Amiga-style retro computer, Takashi Tezuka retiring from Nintendo, new Neo Geo AES+ details, possible retired Evercade cartridges returning, and the open-source Game Bub FPGA handheld. Eight bits of retro gaming news from the past week — all that and just a little bit more, right here on Bit By Bit! ?? #Atari #Wizardry #RetroGaming #BitByBit #SuperMario64 #GameBoyAdvance #GameCube #Amiga #NeoGeo #Evercade #Nintendo #FPGAHandheld #RetroNews - LINKS Atari Acquires Wizardry - https://tinyurl.com/522kt3pe Keychain GameCube - https://tinyurl.com/bdhtjke5 Evercade News - https://tinyurl.com/mr793pct Super Mario 64 GBA - https://tinyurl.com/3rjtv72k A1200 Pushed Back - https://tinyurl.com/5zbmm45d Neo Geo AES+ Questions - https://tinyurl.com/437tffh9 Takashi Tezuka Retires - https://tinyurl.com/3wtyttx7 Game Bub - https://tinyurl.com/nuv8wj8x - 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 0:22 - Atari Acquires Wizardry 4:31 - Keychain GameCube 6:21 - Evercade News 7:19 - Super Mario 64 GBA 8:33 - A1200 Pushed Back 9:51 - Neo Geo AES+ Questions 11:18 - Takashi Tezuka Retires 12:20 - Game Bub

Shop Fightbox: https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox The Atari VCS entered 1982 as the undisputed king of home video games. Millions of consoles had found their way into living rooms, arcade games were becoming cultural phenomena, and Atari was firing on all cylinders. The result was one of the most ambitious years in the system's history. In 1982, Atari released sixteen new cartridges for the VCS, including arcade adaptations like Berzerk, Defender, and Vanguard, groundbreaking originals such as Yars' Revenge and Haunted House, ambitious adventures like Raiders of the Lost Ark and Star Raiders, and even the infamous E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. But which of these games still hold up? Which were the best examples of Atari operating at the peak of its creativity? And which ambitious ideas failed to live up to their potential? In this video, I'll be ranking every game Atari released for the VCS in 1982 through the eyes of Little Jonny—the thirteen-year-old Atari fanatic who was there to experience many of them firsthand. #atari #retrogaming #tierlist #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 Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Atari in 1982 02:19 Berzerk 03:20 Defender 04:27 Demons to Diamonds 05:33 E.T. the Extraterrestrial 07:02 Haunted House 08:11 Math Gran Prix 09:13 Pac-Man 10:35 Raiders of the Lost Ark 13:20 RealSports Baseball 14:33 RealSports Football 15:45 RealSports Volleyball 16:52 Star Raiders 18:15 Submarine Commander 19:26 Swordquest: Earthworld 20:50 Vanguard 22:08 Yars' Revenge 23:40 Conclusion
