One day left in the Donut Dodo Recharged Squad Challenge at ClubVCS!
A reminder, the winner gets a copy of developer Pixel Games' excellent Sir Lovelot on Switch!
How cool is that?!

PSA: There is less than one week left in our Donut Dodo Recharged Squad Challenge at ClubVCS!
Folks, this is the best arcade game from 1983 made and published in 2022. How high can you get!?

No worries on the sore subject. That's all on me. I hate to disappoint others. Something to work on. I'm totally fine with my decision. Crowded indoor event is something I'm not ready for yet.
How is baby doing?

Congratulations to @Joe for winning our Yars: Recharged Squad Challenge with an amazing 128,700 points!
October's Recharged Squad Challenge is Donut Dodo! If you haven't played this game, I highly recommend it whether on the VCS, Steam, or iiRcade. If you have it on another platform, feel free to join in as a shadow player.

Two weeks left in our Yars: Recharged Squad Challenge at ClubVCS.
This one has really grown on me. Have you tried the new Yars game on the VCS or any other platform?

Ah well. Worth a shot!
I'll look forward to hearing your thoughts on this one.
-
Thanks again for the reminder. I would have totally biffed this one without that and then been really mad at myself.
I've only played one game so far (back to work!), but there's one thing already I don't like...the fact that you have to "fire" to eat the bricks. Mostly because it's different than the orig version and honestly seems unnecessary. Otherwise, it's pretty awesome so far.

Congratulations to @tripledfor taking the top spot in our ClubVCS Tempest 4000 Recharged Squad Challenge!
For September, we're playing Yars: Recharged! Can you defeat the Qotile onslaught in this great new revamp of the HSW classic?!

We welcomed "Babytooth Retro" into the world this morning just before 6:00 am. Mom and baby girl are healthy and sleeping. I'm taking the time to improve my swaddle. 😅
I may not be as active in the coming weeks but will keep ClubVCS rolling.

Thinking about how all other iterations of Atari's iconic "fuji" logo were egregious.
Am I the only one whose skin crawls whenever a YouTuber uses the Infogrames flared fuji in a video? Ghastly!
-
You are not the only one. The "Flarey" logo is glaringly lame.
-
Top left is the one that I recognize. Top right was used on the arcade games but I don't remember seeing that one until Midway picked up Atari's arcade division. The bottom two are imposters!
A bit off subject but isn't it weird how Atari Games ended up going back to Warner?

ICYMi: A great discussion on Stoneage Gamer Podcast with Digital Eclipse's Stephen Frost on Atari 50 and TMNT: Cowabunga Collection.

You know that you're old when web versions of your childhood favorites are playable on the AARP website.

My mom lives in an assisted living facility, and I often think about what those places are going to look like when Gen X lives there. Lots of arcade games, 80's music, and old consoles I hope.
-
That's hilarious! That could be a great business opportunity if someone designed some tabletop models that people in wheelchairs could use and went to the assisted living and/or nursing homes to sell them.

PSA: Did you miss out on the Atari 50 sale ? Not to worry, @BHG_Gaminghas you covered. Use code BHG50 for 50 percent off Atari published titles in the VCS store now through 7/16.

Cool new interview with Warren Robinett discussing Adventure and his famous Easter Egg!
-
So awesome.
-
One of the things that is markedly different than previous iterations of Atari is that Atari SA under its new CEO, Wade Rosen, seems to have been able to reconnect and work with former Atari programmers like Frye, Robinett & HSW. I think all of this reflects a change in tone and approach at Atari.
