ACNE Production has released a third demo version of Mundialito 3, the latest entry in its arcade football series for Amiga. The update fully optimises the scrolling routines, making the game run faster and more smoothly than before. Player positioning logic has also been revised so players track the ball more effectively and fall back to defend, and the substitutes' bench can now be accessed. The demo adds a budget system that grows with match results and a post-match transfer market to bring variety to the arcade-style tournaments. via amiga-news.de

Following Atari's confirmation that it is sunsetting the Atari VCS, further details have emerged on how the wind-down will work. The console's online store is set to close in 2027, but Atari plans to issue a system update alongside a new Atari Home Brew app, intended to let owners and developers keep using and creating software for the machine after the store goes offline. The Atari VCS was a Linux-based console that began as a crowdfunded project before reaching retail after repeated delays. via console-classics.com
Azahar, widely regarded as the main 3DS emulator, has said it will no longer support Anbernic handhelds. The move follows the launch of Anbernic's RG DDS, which reportedly uses a fork called AzaharPlus, prompting Azahar's developers to publicly distance themselves from the company. The dispute centres on Anbernic's use of the fork rather than the official Azahar build. Azahar is a continuation of the Citra 3DS emulator project. via retrohandhelds.gg

The PS2 launched in 2000 and remains one of the best-selling consoles ever, with a large library of games still popular among collectors. via retrododo.com

An opinion piece on Time Extension argues that Retro Games Ltd's Amiga lineup may be expanding rather than winding down. The company's forthcoming A1200 is a full-size reproduction of Commodore's machine, arriving pre-loaded with classic games, running Workbench, and supporting extra titles via USB storage, following the earlier A500 Mini micro-console. The piece cites a Retro Gamer magazine interview in which Retro Games Ltd licensing director Darren Melbourne hints that further Amiga devices could be on the horizon, despite the company already having two Amiga clones on the market. Retro Games Ltd is a UK specialist known for recreating classic Commodore and Amiga hardware. via timeextension.com
