Retro. Technology. Life.
Welcome to the cozy, authentic side of retro games.
I’m Jake, and 8bitjoystick is dedicated to enhancing lives through the appreciation of retro games and retro media.
I make monthly, high-quality, documentary-style videos that go beyond the hype to celebrate the 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit eras. Whether it’s preserving CRT history, celebrating classic hardware, or exploring the many ways to enjoy retro games, this channel is about slowing down and finding real joy in the experience.
The Schedule: New videos release on the last Saturday of every month.
The Crew:
Jake: Host & Editor
This Guy: Executive Producer (Orange Cat)
Pull up a chair, grab a controller, and Stay Awesome, Play Retro
