Did you boughtered the new Commodore? Back when vidya was vidya, zero AI.
Even the most antiquated shitboxes can emulate Commodore 64 games at 100x speed.
Is that a bunch of plastic with a 40 year old trademark? Woah momma.
>>731019765This isn't emulation, it's the real deal.
>>731019827Nobody who wants to play games gives a shit.
>>731019827I'll show you the real deal *unzips dick*
>>731019695ai was actually pretty hip and cool during that time
>>731019695What are the top three C64 games? I've never touched the console
>>731019827lol
>>731019695I got two of the original ones downstairs. Picked them up from my parents' place a few months ago.
>>731019934Maniac Mansion, Pirates!, Elite
>>731019695Cool for enthusiasts I guess, I'll just emulate it though
>>731019695we are so back gramps
Another generation, another small tech company buying the C64 trademark and using it to sell a cheap-ass plug-n-play PC.
>>731019695is the SID actually replicated at the logic gate level?, or did just compile some c++ emu code like most FPGAs do?
>>731020387This one seems like an expensive passion projectIt is an actual C64 you can put dual SIDs in and has the expensive hard to find memory expanders built in The case is a perfect match to the original to where if you had an original upper shell keyboard assembly it is a drop in replacement.
>>731019878Why do I care what a bunch of retarded zoomies who don't "give a shit" about where or how their games come from think? This isn't for them. There are always going to be poorfags and leeches who try to pirate games, but their abilities to do so are intrinsically tied to the troons who make their emulators. Someone with real tech isn't going to have their games taken away if ROM sites and torrenting suddenly disappears.
>>731020580malding unc
>>731020463 (me)as expected it's emulated... UltiSID
>>731019827The real deal? So it has a 6502 built into it? Otherwise fuck off shill.
>>731020561That's a bit better at least. Though I still wonder a bit who this is for. I've always seen projects like this as novelties for people interested in experiencing "the real deal" for a console generation they missed. Real hobbyists will want the real hardware, and people just interested in trying the games will turn to emulation.
>>731019827Still emulation we've been over this.
>>731020048>Lucasfilm and Sid MeierDidn't know they did C64 stuff, neat
>>731020580You could have downloaded the entirety of the Commodore 64 game library in the time it took you to type all that stupid shit.
>>731019934ultima iv is up there but it's actually a pretty bad port all things considered
>>731019695name 5 games on the commodore worth playing.
name one good commodore game
>>731021981I just recently watched Majuular's entire Ultima retrospective series, what an interesting part of game history they were.
>>731019775It actually took until very recently for the reborn Commodore ran by ex-Commodore people to get all of their trademarks back. It's not like Atari.
>>731022223Maniac Mansion (1987)A pioneering point-and-click adventure where you control multiple teen characters to rescue a kidnapped girl from a mad scientist's mansion. Its puzzle-solving, humor, and character-switching mechanics influenced countless games like Monkey Island.Impossible Mission (1984)One of the C64's defining platformers: infiltrate enemy bases as a secret agent, using elevators, collecting passwords, and battling robots amid digitized speech ("Destroy him, my robot!"). Incredibly replayable and tense.Pirates! (1987)Sid Meier's masterpiece: sail the Caribbean as a pirate captain, plundering ships, trading, dueling, and dancing. An open-world strategy-adventure blend with endless depth and historical flavor.Elite (1984)The groundbreaking space simulation: trade goods across galaxies, dogfight pirates, and explore procedurally generated universes in a wireframe 3D world. Revolutionary for its freedom and complexity.Paradroid (1985)Hack and possess enemy droids in a top-down shooter aboard spaceships. Strategic robot-swapping for abilities makes every level a puzzle-shooter hybrid—pure C64 innovation.
>>731022524And what do I care about that? Are the games better now that they've got the trademark?
>>731019934Turrican 2, that's basically it and it has to compete with the Amiga version. I like International Karate+ and Barbarian, but those arguably aged very poorly. The Last Ninja is overrated as fuck. Creatures 1 and 2 are notable. Cybernoid might be decent. The games: summer edition (not to be confused with The summer games) is also fairly decent outside of the biking game. The c64 Ghosts'n'goblins is kinda jank, but fine from the C64 perspective. You could try out Total Eclipse just to see how something a step above an a etch-a-sketch could render 3D
>>731019934>>731022223>>731022375For the people asking about games:https://www.lemon64.com/games/votes_list.php
neighbor gave me his old c64 when he movedi was pretty baffled that games could be on cassette tapes
>>731019695To anyone looking to buy that thing, don't buy the one with the transparent plastic:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtLR4nXAm4w&t=575s
>>731019695I think it's cool, and I'd buy one if it was $100 cheaper. A brand new FPGA C64 that has 98% compatibility with original software and peripherals is pretty cool. The goycattle who say "just emulate bro" don't understand the importance of having a dedicated device for one thing, that doesn't connect to the internet. For the money though, I'd rather just get an original and refurb it myself.
BUTI SAYELLOW YEWWW
>>731019695I kind of want one just to fuck around with. Haven't ordered yet. If I do get one, it will be the Beige one.
>>731019695>Game-reactive LED case & keysHow very modern.
