I am loving this MCON controller from !
It’s definitely a dream mobile controller for me.
✅ Wireless Bluetooth
✅ Compact + clicky
✅ Modern analog thumbsticks and triggers
✅ Works with iPhone + RetroArch
✅ Perfect for vertical tate mode
✅ Future proof

This thing turns your phone into a legit handheld console.
Scratches that reatrogaming itch on the go. Eliminates the need for an additional handheld gaming device 🎮

Me calling my 2026 future self to let them know everything’s going to be okay.

2025 was a tough year for a lot of us. But we grinded through that previous level.

To everyone who stuck around, pressed continue, and played along with me—thank you.

Every game, every pinball drain, every “Game Over” we laughed at together meant something.

In 2026, I hope we all find more joy, more 1ups, more extra balls, and fewer boss fights.

Let’s keep those retro games and memories alive, into a high-score future.

See you on the other side of midnight.
Let’s get some more quarters because the next level awaits.

Drop your 2026 wish in the comments. I’ll read every one.

👾This might be the wildest streaming challenge I’ve taken on yet…
Live-streaming an original Vectrex CRT console 🤯

In this video I’m breaking down the quirks of streaming a vintage CRT, how I use OBSBot Cameras, and Saramonic wireless mics 🎤✨

Not too many Vectrex streams out there — so if you're into retro gaming, weird tech problems, or creative setups… this one’s for you 👾💚

Follow The Living Arcade for more retro streams, DIY builds, and other nerdiness!

A big thank you to Saramonic audio for the support!

Betcha didn’t know this microSD trick 👇
Whether you’re a creator, gamer, IT pro, or anyone who works with microSD cards, you know how surprisingly hard they can be to remove from certain devices. Here’s a simple, reliable solution.

This simple hack is great for:
🎮 Gaming handhelds & consoles
📸 Cameras
💻 Laptops & card readers
📱 Mobile devices

It also doubles as a visual indicator — so you know whether a card is inserted at a glance.
If this helps your workflow, let me know. Happy to share more creator-friendly tech tips and process improvements.

Granted, this is global views across my whole channel — but wow! I still have a long way to go toward monetization, but news like this keeps me going. A big thank-you to everyone who has encouraged and supported me!

Ever seen a Twitch streaming rig built on a kitchen cart? 😅

This is my unconventional virtual pinball setup — complete with custom-mounted Elgato Key Lights in the ceiling, dual Stream Decks, analog plunger + haptics, and a full Sony camera overhead to capture every shot.

It’s messy in the best way — a blend of maker energy, gaming, and production nerdiness.

🕹️🕹️ arcade stick museum at evo! The nostalgia vibes💪 I remember drooling over every one of these when they released. I’ll never forget the first arcade stick I got as a kid when I worked all summer for a G&L controls for my SNES. They unfortunately didn’t have one on display.

Finally made the time to vibe out and watch the action in the arena! 🕹️🕹️
