I don’t do a lot of videos here on Goto 10 and don’t expect that to change. It’s a lot of work to create good videos and I really don’t have the equipment or space to do so. Any videos you see from me will be short snippets at most.

There are lots of great sources of retrocomputing YouTube channels that have Atari-related video content, so I thought I would take a moment to point out some of my favorites.

• The 8-bit Guy

  • David is one of the original retro video channels, or at least is one of the first ones I started following. He’s a big Commodore guy, but I won’t hold that against him. His content is always great, super-nerdy, and fun!

• 8-bit and more

  • Rick has been doing Atari-focused videos for a few years now. He also repaired my 130XE! He has done some great videos explaining how to do some complicated stuff on an 8-bit Atari, such as assembly programming and display lists. I’ll be referring to his “Dev Setup” video in the future to help get my 8-bit development setup going.

• Atari Legend

  • This channel is a love letter to Atari ST games.

• RMC - The Cave

  • Neil is also another YouTuber that I’ve been following for a long time. He covers a wide variety of retro gear. Although he is a big Amiga fan, he has covered Atari on several occasions.

• ctrl-alt-rees

  • A relatively new channel, Rees has lots of retro content with a large amount that is Atari-related.

• The Retro Shack

  • I really like this channel. It covers all types of retro computer gear, but I’ve been pleased with the Atari content.

• Retro Recipes

  • Perifractic and Lady Fractic are the hosts of this somewhat oddball retro channel. There’s not a lot of Atari content, as Perifractic is an admitted Commodore nut, but it’s a fun channel.

• retrobits

  • This channel has a variety of retro computing content and there has been some good Atari content from time to time.
