About this deal

The 4-Bit Wonder.

The Commodore 64 was the primary choice for gamers in the early 80s. This nicotine-colored plastic wonder created the foundation of gaming as we know it today and still stands as one of the most impactful devices ever made for games. Including a massive assortment of classic SID Arp sounds with extensive round-robin, Basses, Leads, Oscillators from each Chipset, Pads and Plucked sounds. Feel free to ask any questions! We Ultra Deep-Sampled™ three different SID chips over two generations of chipsets from the SID Station and the MOS Sammich, which contains newer generations (less noisy) variations of the infamous chipset. Over the next few weeks we will be adding items that will be useful to Commodore users.

1982.

Also the game selection is not very good, I know you can technically load any C64 using a USB memory stick, but they you'd use one of the USBs for that, and that'd only leave one free for plugging the joystick and/or keyboard. The games work great, they load fast and look and sound about 98/99% like you remember. I know I said that you don't technically need a keyboard, but that's with the original game selection, if you add more games to it, then some of the good ones really need that keyboard to play. So, it's good for a little nostalgia jolt, I really like it and I know I'm going to be playing California Games with my (old) friends.

I know you probably can't get all the good games people are expecting, so I don't mind about the game selection, but those 2 things would make it just perfect for what it needs to be. The keyboard of course is non functional, and that's OK, you have a virtual keyboard and can also plug a USB keyboard and type away. I don't give it 5 stars only because the joystick is very bad and it feels like it's going to break in a matter of days. You can plug a USB HUB and get more slots, but not every HUB works and it's honestly a mess.

First of all, this little console looks great, it's so cute, you'll want to cuddle it after you open the box. I know the original Commodore joysticks were mostly bad, but this one feels like it's going to dissolve by just looking at it the wrong way.

But expect a few compromises and to do a little bit of work if you want to get something closer to the real experience. I still recommend it though, it's a really fun little thing to have. If the makers are reading, and are planning on a revision, here's my suggestions:-Add at least one more USB to it.
