Is finally out! thec64.com/Came home tonight to find one waiting for me. I'm a BBC Micro boy through and through and through, but 30 years on I can finally play all the games I so coveted on my mate's C64. This thrills me MUCH more than than the SNES mini. |

Ashens' review was not particularly favourable. Interesting that it's a custom Linux build on a custom processor, but the input lag in emulation is a problem, as is launching disk images from USB.

I randomly bought a 1987 C64 box today.
(I didn't think this piece of news justified the creation of an actual vintage C64 thread)
