  • Fuck yeah, Chip's Challenge.
  • I don't think think the price is too crazy but for the price of the small one you can just get a real C64 and the full sized one will probably be priced similar to a MiST computer.



    I think computer emulators in tiny boxes are a little weird though. It's less convenient to plug a separate keyboard and display into this box than to just buy C64 Forever and run an emulator on your PC using your existing keyboard.
  • I thought there was a c64 plug and play that took real carts

    I hear ya. Chip's Challenge was the first video game I ever played and loved it! I seen a chips challenge nes cartridge that I want to get my hands on one day



     
  • It's pretty much missing everything I grew up with, and my family had like 60 different floppy disks
  • Not an official Commodore product, right? They don't actually call it "Commodore."

    Apparently it's all licensed. A separate holding company has the Commodore trademark so they can't call it that.

     
  • Where's the price info? I couldn't find it.



    Though if DefaultGen is saying you can buy an original for the price...it probably isn't cheap :/
  • Bubble Bubble, Buggy Boy, Wizard of Wor, International Karate and Barbarian were some of the classics back then. Brings back some memories!

    However, I don't think the C64 mini will be very popular with the exception of just the hardcore commodore collectors, maybe.
  • Depends in price. I hate that these things cost so much in general. I see them 10 years later dirt cheap at garage sales and thrift stores.
  • It's clearly missing Potty Pigeon

    Suggested retail price is said to be $69.99.
  • Thats amazing... I want one
  • That's pretty cool. There are some good games in that thing.

    Also, with all the minis going out these days, I'd love to see a joke/oddball mini like the CD-i mini for some reason
  • I'd be more interested if it had more of the games I played as a kid. Maybe I wasn't playing the "good" games, so these will be more fun. I liked Zaxxon, Wizard of Wor, the C64 version of Ghostbusters, Jumpman, Radar Rat Race, and tons of others I'm forgetting. I'm glad to see Impossible Mission on the list, the modern remakes get some of the details wrong, even on "classic" mode.
  • wasn't Uridium was ported to NES as Last Starfighter?
  • Has anyone pre ordered one yet?
