Merlin (also known as Merlin The Electronic Wizard, stylized as MERLIN) is a handheld electronic game first made by Parker Brothers in 1978. The game was invented by former NASA employee Bob Doyle, his wife Holly, and brother-in-law Wendl Thomis. Merlin is notable as one of the earliest and most popular handheld games, selling over 5 million units during its initial run, as well as one of the most long-lived, remaining popular throughout the 1980s. A version of the game was re-released in 2004 by the Milton Bradley Company. #retrogaming #handheld #thrift #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 Keys of Fury » https://keysoffury.com G'AIM'E Time Crisis » http://genxgrownup.com/gaime King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 My First Merlin 01:59 The Box 03:13 Manual 03:57 Hardware Tour 07:35 Power On 07:54 Tic Tac Toe 09:05 Music Machine 10:36 Echo 11:29 Blackjack 13 15:35 Magic Square 17:05 Mindbender 19:30 Summary

Grab your trench coat, tune your sixth sense and join the Darkside Division as they investigate the outright bizarre, the downright dangerous and the confusing cases of Twin Lakes. Flesh-hungry tentacles, mafian zombies, and the occasional missing sock are no match for The Darkside Detective. #indiegame #retrogaming #genxgrownup - LINKS The Darkside Detective on Steam » https://store.steampowered.com/app/368390/The_Darkside_Detective/ - 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

Get Your Sprint » Intellivision Sprint » https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FX5Z3N23?tag=genxgrownup-20 So, you’ve got your shiny new Intellivision Sprint and have tried adding games by just throwing a bunch of INT files on a USB stick, you very likely ran into a hiccup or two. Most files will just work, but some may not, and I know it can be frustrating - it was for me. Thanks to info and resources I’ve scoured up from around the net by people way smarter about Intellivision than me, I’m slowly building up my own USB stick full of new and favorite games not already built in. In this video, I walk you through adding one perfectly-formatted and perfectly-functioning game, so you can repeat it as many times as you like with your favorites. #atari #intellivision #retrogaming #genxgrownup @atari @PLAION_Official - LINKS Launchbox Intellivision Database » https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/platforms/games/15-mattel-intellivision AtariAge Config Thread » https://forums.atariage.com/topic/203179-config-files-to-use-with-various-intellivision-titles/ ROM Source » https://www.google.com GXG Templates » https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/17eJgBMWBFGV7leQ6V4YcpjZwqCpW4KM8?usp=drive_link Intellivision Gamer » @intellivisiongamer - SHOP Intellivision Sprint » https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FX5Z3N23?tag=genxgrownup-20 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 Keys of Fury » https://keysoffury.com G'AIM'E Time Crisis » http://genxgrownup.com/gaime King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Sprint Expansion 01:11 Getting ROMs 01:35 ROM Types 02:00 USB Location & Test 02:48 ROM Config File 04:45 Image & Metadata Files 05:57 File Cheat Sheet 06:11 Box Cover 06:32 Overlays 07:14 QR Code 07:37 Screenshots 08:01 JSON Metadata 08:53 Files to USB & Test 10:22 Summary
