Summary
We've got a real blast from the past for you this week—which is kinda the point of Retronauts, but our newest episode is a blast from the past in an entirely different way. We originally recorded this one on December 6th, 2015, exclusively as an episode for our Kickstarter backers, but now so much time has passed that we feel it's the right time to release this podcast to the general public. So join Jeremy Parish, Bob Mackey, and special guests Steve Lin and Jaz Rignall as the crew discusses Atari's oversized handheld and says things they likely don't remember in the distant year of 2020. Transport yourself back to a time when we were still excited for more Star Wars and get ready for this week's episode!

| 0:51.2 | And I think, you know, something that makes the links interesting in particular is the |
| 0:55.2 | relationship it had with the Game Boy. |
| 0:57.2 | The two kind of comparing contrast in a fascinating way. |
| 1:00.3 | And you can learn more and explain more about video game history by looking at the relationship |
| 1:05.0 | these two systems had. |
| 1:06.0 | They're interesting, good systems and a vacuum, but even more valuable to study in relationship |
