This week on Bit By Bit, Evercade is bringing DOOM to cartridge — but do you really need the massive $249.99 limited-edition DOOM Nexus bundle when existing Evercade owners can grab the new DOOM Collection cartridge for just $29.99? We break down what you're actually getting and which option makes the most sense for retro gamers and collectors. Plus, nearly 100 pristine copies of a previously unseen Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt variant have surfaced, including five cartridges earning a perfect PSA 10 grade. Commodore is resurrecting the legendary TAC-2 joystick for $49.99, and one of the rarest arcade machines ever made — a working two-player Computer Space cabinet from 1973 — has gone up for auction. We also check out a new ModRetro M64 firmware update bringing wireless rumble, display options, audio improvements and more; Defender of the Crown: The Legend Returns brings the classic strategy game back roughly 40 years later; Y2K electronics-repair sim ReStory passes 300,000 sales; and Bubsy 4D gets a huge Black Hole update with 15 new levels, outfits, leaderboards and more.

Most Atari 2600 space shooters ask you to move your ship and fire. Encounter at L-5 has a different idea. For this Friday Plays, I’m taking on Data Age’s 1982 paddle-controlled shooter to explore its unusual approach to aiming—and why I wish they’d taken it further. #atari #retrogaming #atari2600 #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
