With an eye towards rare, unreleased and long out-of-print classics on a variety of consoles, Retro-Bit Publishing has been a leading name in preserving classic 8- and 16-bit video games since 2018. Each release is lovingly recreated and given the star treatment, with many games featuring statues, art cards, keychains, posters, reversable covers and more. Limited to a single pressing (often with only a few thousand copies in existence), Retro-Bit's titles are highly sought-after and the perfect collectable for both the hardcore gamers and casual enthusiasts. Below you will find the complete list of games released under the Retro-Bit Publishing banner.

BEFORE RETRO-BIT PUBLISHING: Prior to forming the Retro-Bit Publishing label, the company was best known for plug-n-play consoles like the Retro-Bit Generations and Super Retrocade. This led to the release of four compilation cartridges that paved the way towards the Retro-Bit Publishing brand. While not considered part of the official line-up, these four releases play an important role in Retro-Bit's legacy.
