RetroBytes Neo: October 2026

RetroBytes Neo has found its groove as a monthly hangout for gamers and pop-culture fans alike. Each month, Joe and Brian pull up a chair for an unscripted conversation that can go just about anywhere—from industry trends and gaming history to personal stories and the occasional completely unexpected tangent.

For the October 2026 edition, the duo invites Danny from Retro Wars podcast to talk about the ongoing debate of Physical vs. Digital games.
