C64 floppy codes

[ThelonelyAlien]

I've just acquired a floppy drive and i want to buy some games of ebay. I've seen them in bundles and would like to buy them but i've heard i need codes from the instructions. If I do need codes for the floppy disks could i get them on the internet and just print them out?

If you're talking about copy-protection codes, many of the time the game has fallen into 'abandonware' and the games themselves can be found sans protection pretty easily. If you want to stick with originals, the manuals and codes for some games should easily be found.

Very few games actually require such codes, and most of those were produced toward the end of the C-64's run. If you happen to get a game that does require codes, all disks would use the same codes, so yes, finding them online would be good enough.
