Hey Retro Fans!

Sorg, Katie, and Dave Podnar hit the week's tech and geek headlines: Nintendo's Virtual Boy revival on Switch, Apple's latest product wave (including iPhone 17e and iPad Air updates), and a troubling report about Meta AI smart glasses and human review. Plus Dunkin's giant drink bucket, MuppetVision in VR, Adobe's AI video-editing experiments, Pokémon nostalgia gadgets, Xbox 1440p cloud streaming, a Marvel retro collection, and a Women's History Month spotlight on Grace Hopper.

My Arcade continues to build on its reputation for creative, nostalgia‑driven gaming hardware with a new lineup that blends classic arcade experiences with modern design. The company's approach focuses on reimagining retro play in ways that feel familiar to longtime fans while remaining accessible to new audiences. At CES 2026, My Arcade introduced several products that highlight this philosophy, including a jukebox‑inspired gaming speaker, an updated handheld system, and a growing catalog of licensed titles from major gaming publishers.The company's design direction emphasizes playful form factors, authentic arcade aesthetics, and user‑friendly features. These elements support a wide range of players, from collectors seeking display‑worthy hardware to casual gamers who want portable access to classic titles.Jukebox Player Combining Music and Arcade GameplayOne of the most distinctive products introduced this year is the Jukebox Player, a device that merges a portable Bluetooth speaker with built‑in arcade games. The unit features a retro‑styled cabinet design with illuminated accents and a front‑facing speaker system engineered for everyday music listening. The inclusion of Bandai Namco titles transforms the device into a hybrid entertainment system that supports both audio playback and classic gaming.The concept reflects a growing trend in which users combine music and gameplay in shared environments. By integrating both functions into a single device, the Jukebox Player offers a compact and visually striking option for fans who want a multifunctional piece of retro‑inspired hardware.GameStation Retro Go Handheld SystemMy Arcade also showcased the GameStation Retro Go, a handheld system designed to deliver an extensive library of classic titles. The device includes more than two hundred games from Bandai Namco and Capcom, offering a broad selection of arcade and console favorites. The eight‑inch display uses a four‑by‑three aspect ratio, which preserves the original presentation of retro games and avoids the stretching common on widescreen devices.The system includes a built‑in kickstand for tabletop play and a rechargeable battery for portable use. A key feature is the company's Smart Glow technology, which illuminates only the controls required for the selected game. This guidance helps players navigate large game libraries without guesswork. The latest version of Smart Glow adds turbo and macro functionality, allowing users to assign rapid‑fire actions or complex move sequences to dedicated buttons. These enhancements support both casual play and more advanced gaming styles.Expanding Licensed Retro TitlesMy Arcade continues to grow its licensed catalog, with Sega joining Bandai Namco and Capcom as a major partner. Recent releases include Sonic‑themed tabletop units and joystick players that have performed strongly in retail environments. Additional Sega‑based products are planned, including devices featuring Shinobi, OutRun, Golden Axe, and Streets of Rage. These systems incorporate themed controls, illuminated marquees, and gameplay faithful to the original titles.The company also offers Pixel Pockets, a line of fully playable keychain systems that include complete game ROMs rather than abbreviated versions. These miniature devices appeal to collectors and fans who want portable access to authentic retro gameplay.ConclusionMy Arcade's CES 2026 lineup demonstrates a continued commitment to creative hardware design and authentic retro gaming experiences. The Jukebox Player blends music and arcade play in a unique form factor, while the GameStation Retro Go expands handheld gaming with a large library and intuitive control guidance. The company's growing partnerships with major publishers further strengthen its position in the retro gaming market. As interest in classic games continues to rise, My Arcade's products offer a blend of nostalgia, innovation, and accessibility for players of all ages.Interview by Scott Ertz of F5 Live: Refreshing Technology.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

In dieser Episode von „Dirty Minutes Left“ begeben wir uns auf eine kulinarische und spielerische Entdeckungsreise. Holger und Arne probieren die 8,15 Cola, ein interessantes koreanisches Getränk, das am Unabhängigkeitstag des Landes produziert wurde. Während sie das Getränk verkosten, diskutieren sie seine Inhaltsstoffe, wie das Koffein, und die einzigartigen Produktionsbedingungen in Korea, was eine witzige Anekdote zur Folge hat, als Arne die Cola in einem Asia-Laden in Hamburg entdeckt hat. Das Gespräch wechselt schnell zu ihrem neuesten Spielerlebnis mit dem Spiel „Last Resort“. Holger erklärt die Mechanik des Sidescoring-Shooters, bei dem man ein Raumschiff steuert und mit einem Satelliten-Raumschiff interagiert. Sie vertiefen sich in die Spielstrategien, diskutieren die grafischen Eigenschaften, die dem Neo Geo-Stil entsprechen, und die Vorzüge eines Handheld-Systems. Im Verlauf des Gesprächs zeigen die beiden ihre nostalgischen Erinnerungen an Arcade-Spiele und wie moderne Technologien diese Erfahrungen neu beleben. Der Fokus verschiebt sich, als Holger von seinem bevorstehenden Umzug und den damit verbundenen Veränderungen berichtet. Er schildert seinen letzten Arbeitstag an einer neuen Position in der Firma, den damit verbundenen Geschenken und den Komplikationen, die mit seinem Umzug verbunden sind. Die Anekdoten geben Einblicke in das Büroalltag und die Beziehungen zu Kollegen, während die Gespräche um Umzugsunternehmen und neue Möbel für sein Büro kreisen. In der weiteren Diskussion wird ein Spendenlauf thematisiert, an dem Arne teilgenommen hat. Hier erhebt sich die Frage nach der besonderen Atmosphäre solcher Veranstaltungen. Er beschreibt die Struktur des Laufs, die Gruppendynamik und die Herausforderung, die Distanz im Team zu bewältigen. Arne bringt die Freude über die Teamarbeit und das Gemeinschaftsgefühl zum Ausdruck, das durch das gemeinsame Laufen und Anfeuern erzeugt wird. Abschließend sprechen die beiden über eine neue Errungenschaft von Arne: seine selbstgebauten Arcade-Station. Er erläutert die technischen Details, das Design und die Funktionalität der Station, was von einer leidenschaftlichen Begeisterung für Retro-Gaming zeugt. Allem in allem verbindet sich in dieser Episode der Eindruck, dass „Dirty Minutes Left“ nicht nur eine Diskussion über Getränke und Spiele ist, sondern auch Anekdoten über das Leben, Umzüge und persönliche Projekte abdeckt, die die Zuhörer in ihren Bann ziehen.

It also happened to be the last year before EA secured the exclusive rights to the NFL license, leaving many fans wishing we could go back to the way things were back then, and we were left with two games that many consider to be some of the best sports games ever made- Madden 2005 (EA Tiburon) and ESPN NFL 2K5 (Visual Concepts). 20+ years later, which game stands on top?

Then they bring back a recent format and talk about their “lock-ins” and “leave-its” for the new year, helping each other decide what to bring forward into 2026 and what to ultimately drop (NOT GAMES).Poll of the Show:https://gamesandnotgames.com/pollTimestamps:00:00 Intro00:18 Catching Up02:03 Games / Retro Gaming58:35 Not Games / 2026 Lock-Ins & Leave-Its02:01:38 Poll of the Show02:06:28 OutroSend your questions and topics to the email address Inbox@GamesAndNotGames.comFor more Games And Not Games:YouTube.com/@GamesAndNotGamesTwitch.tv/GamesAndNotGamesBlueSky: @GamesAndNotGames.comTikTok, Instagram, Threads: @GamesAndNotGamesTwitter/X: @GamesAndNotFollow the hosts:Janet: @gameonysus.bsky.socialIsaiah: @isaiahsmith.dev
