All Things Atari, Vintage Gaming & More
On episode 10 of Xpresso4, my Atari Lynx Game Review series, it's a special Halloween episode! For starters, 'Ballistik From the Future' is BACK to hijack the show! (Not seen since wayy back in 2023! Retro!) He's back to review 'Dracula: The Undead' by Hand Made Software for the Atari Lynx back in 1991. Ancient... Continue Reading →
On this episode of #BCB, I have a surprise! My good friend @cryptocoffee13 visited recently & as I was showing him my home, I plugged in my #AsteroidsDeluxe #Atari #ArcadeCabinet &... it worked! The screen flickered to life & its still working! I was philisophical about #retrogaming, #Asteroids, #arcades, #homearcades, #Atari and more! Stay tuned... Continue Reading →
On episode 5 of #XpressO4, #AtariLynx#GameReviews, in about 20 minutes, I play #PacLand for the #Lynx! This is a 1991 port of the super-popular 1985 #arcadegame, a sequel of sorts to #PacMan! How does this one hold up today? #BCB takes a look @ the #box, #manual & reads about the #gamehistory, then shows some... Continue Reading →
On this episode of Atari Stories, I begin a year-long series titled "The Bushnell Files!" Kind of like the X-Files but without the alien babies or UFO's or cattle abductions. In this series, I read random articles about Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari. These span anywhere from the 70's-80's-90's-00's and current times. This time, I... Continue Reading →
On this hotly-anticipated (Haha) episode of #TigerBling, my show featuring the BEST of the WORST of the BEST of the #Tiger #toy lines (& #videogames) from the past few decades! This time, I take a look at the handheld #Tiger #LCD #Electronic #Video #Games! You know the ones! They used to be everywhere, and I... Continue Reading →
On episode 10 of #XpressO3, I play #PolePositionII, a pack-in title for some, for the #Atari7800 #gameconsole! On this #deepdive double episode, I go more into detail on some titles. This one's a classic for sure, the sequel to 1983's #PolePosition by #Namco, it's a cool #game many enjoy to this day. Is it unflawed... Continue Reading →
On this episode of Atari Stories, I read you an article on Kotaku.com titled "Sex, Pong & Pioneers: What Atari Was Really Like, According to the Women Who Were There." By Cecilia D'Anastasio from 2018. According to this article, there was some wild sexism going on and perhaps while Nolan Bushnell, reportedly, turned a blind... Continue Reading →
On this episode of #AtariNewsline, I peel back the covers on the unreleased & legendary #AtariMirai console. It was discovered only recently in an #Atari warehouse after the company shuttered some offices. Was it a partnership with #SNK to released #NeoGeo like collaboration #games or was it meant to be the #16bit successor to the... Continue Reading →
On this episode of #BCB, I #review the #Sears #Telegames #VideoArcadeII! This system came out in 1983 and was actually my very first #Atari #gameconsole as a kid in the early 80's. (It came with some funky controllers, to be sure!) Being reunited with the #console after all these years is very nostalgic. But how... Continue Reading →
On this episode of #Unboxd, I give you a slew of #unboxings going back to #October through #December 2024! These include the #raw & #unedited#videos I created for some of my most recent, timely #Atari videos! Including the #Atari7800Plus, some cool #retro#Vinyl, the #SuperPockets (#Atari & #Technos), the #R1 by #Rabbit, some #PacMan, and much,... Continue Reading →
