Is AI killing retro gaming? ?? In this episode of Bit By Bit, we dig into how the AI boom may be driving up the cost of key components like RAM and what that could mean for retro gamers, collectors, and anyone trying to keep older hardware alive. If rising prices are making it harder to enjoy classic gaming, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear. We also break down more retro gaming news from around the scene and talk about what it all means for GenX gamers who still love the classics. #BitByBit #RetroGaming #AI #GamingNews #RetroNews #ClassicGaming #GamingCollecting #RetroTech #OldSchoolGaming #GenXGaming - LINKS AI Kills Retroid Handheld - https://tinyurl.com/ydbe25bt SNES Doom - https://tinyurl.com/3eypkfhu New Anbernic Flip - https://tinyurl.com/2wc3t6fj Convenience kills the joy of gaming - https://tinyurl.com/5n7u7e9j PS3, WiiU, Xbox 360 Are Old - https://tinyurl.com/5fvfy65z Save Myrient - https://tinyurl.com/3ufjp5cy Secret Of Monkey Island Demake - https://tinyurl.com/vjn9zw8y RG Vita & Vita Pro Updates - https://tinyurl.com/mr4xddrv New Swtich Dock Covers - https://tinyurl.com/mwpbt6vk Atari & OpenTTD News - https://tinyurl.com/ykf3vs5w - 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 0:36 - AI Kills Retroid Handheld 4:40 - SNES Doom 5:49 - New Anbernic Flip 7:36 - Convenience kills the joy of gaming 9:29 - PS3, WiiU, Xbox 360 Are Old 11:38 - Save Myrient 12:53 - Secret Of Monkey Island Demake 14:53 - RG Vita & Vita Pro Updates 16:31 - New Swtich Dock Covers 18:05 - Atari & OpenTTD News

Carmageddon is back and bloodier than ever! ?? In this episode of Bit By Bit, we’re diving into Carmageddon: Rogue Shift, the new roguelite spin on the classic death-racing series, heading to PS5, Xbox Series, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2 in early 2026. We’ll talk post-apocalyptic zombie hordes, brutal car combat, and whether this new direction can really bring Carmageddon roaring back to life. Then we’re jumping over to Stranger Things season 5, where a “totally unforgivable” NES blooper has retro gamers laughing, groaning, and nitpicking frame-by-frame. We’ll break down the Ghosts ’n Goblins arcade/console mix-up and why tiny details like this matter so much to ’80s kids and cartridge purists. Finally, we look at a decade-long retrobrighting study that suggests our beloved console-whitening tricks might actually be doing more harm than good. From a poor Dreamcast shell to streaking, blotching, and worse yellowing over time, we’ll talk about what this means for restoring (or not restoring) your aging plastic hardware. If you love retro gaming, weird tech experiments, and catching every tiny on-screen mistake, you’re in the right place. Hit play, share with a fellow retro nut, and let us know in the comments: Are you hyped for Carmageddon: Rogue Shift—and will you still risk retrobrighting your gear?

A journalist receives a mysterious package. A console. And a game. No combat, no score, no objectives, only movement, and a menu full of cryptic settings you’re meant to adjust. What are you really configuring?

We’re going back in! ? Darkenstein 3D is calling us back for Part 2, and this time we’re pushing deeper into the castle where the bullets fly faster and mistakes get punished HARD. Expect frantic retro FPS action, close calls, lots of trash talk with chat, and (hopefully) some progress without getting absolutely humbled. Jump in, hang out, and help guide the chaos! ?? #Darkenstein3D #RetroFPS #BoomerShooter #FPS #IndieGame #Livestream #LiveGaming #RetroGaming #SteamGame #OldSchoolGaming #WolfensteinVibes #GamingCommunity

In 1983, Atari decided what was good for the goose was good for the gander. Just as Mattel had formed M Network to publish software for the Atari VCS, Atari realized it could leverage its properties and publish to other platforms, too. Thus was born Atarisoft. One high-profile title ported to their main competitor's platform was Pac-Man for the Mattel Intellivision - and as you'll see, it just might have backfired. #atari #retrogaming #intellivision #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 King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com
