Did They Finally Fix MK Online? + More Retro News!

Did Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection finally get the online treatment it deserves? ? In this episode of Bit By Bit, I’m diving into the new Online Arcade lobby beta, talking about how it works, what’s improved, and whether it might finally redeem MK’s shaky online reputation. Then we’re swapping quarters for cartridges with Evercade’s newly announced TAITO Arcade 3 collection, packed with more classic arcade goodness for your handheld or VS setup, and wrapping things up with maybe the wildest crossover yet: custom Nike sneakers you can actually play SNES games on. ???

If you love retro fighters, cartridge collections, and weird-but-awesome hardware mods, this one’s for you. ? From MK lobbies and Evercade’s next arcade installment to the Air SNES kicks, we’re celebrating how retro keeps evolving in 2025 while still hitting those nostalgia nerves.
