Pixel Gaiden - Episode 168 - Are you a Ball or a Bat? + Truxton (Arcade) vs Raiden (Arcade)

When the genius minds at Atari pondered a successor to the Atari 2600, they birthed a mega machine that would stand the test of time! Built like a tank, modular, and a marvel of it's age, the Atari 800 was the flagship work that was SO good, it was TOO good to give up on! Join THE BRENT and Amigo Aaron as we discuss this computing legend, and then we'll talk about our favorite game to play on it, the equally legendary BLUE MAX! It's ATARI FREAKIN' UNLIMITED!🔗 Get social!Email: theretrorotation@gmailFacebook: Amigos Retro GamingTwitch: amigosretrogamingBluesky: amigosgretrogaming#Retrocomputing #atari8bit #atari800

Some people just don't get on with certain types of games. Fighters, Beat 'Em Ups, Point and Click, PUZZLE...sometimes it's just not your cup of tea.

Join Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT for ARG 324 as we tackle Chaos Reborn and Bookworm Deluxe!🔗 Get social!Email: theretrorotation@gmailFacebook: Amigos Retro GamingTwitch: amigosretrogamingBluesky: amigosgretrogaming#argpresents #Retrocomputing
