Thing looks amazing. They're not re-inventing the wheel.. so they copied part of another playfield for the geometry. The theme looks like it's going to be great. I love the mini tv (shown in Day7).

It's a competition between her and Ben Hekendorn. Ben's showing off his at the MGC, not sure if Jeri is yet.

 

Here's a vid of Ben's work in progress -

Yeah, at first, I didn't believe she had done that! Truth be told, I can't stand the game selection on that thing though. Titles must have been awfully cheap to procure is what I'm thinking. Not a real representation of classic C64 gaming at all. Still, Jeri rocks!

Actually, they are a real representation - of the European C64 scene. That's the main market the DTV was intended for.

Right you are about the Euro market, just a shame that an American was continuing the C= tradition of (sort of) ignoring the American market to concentrate on European sales. I'd purchase a better/more representative of 80's American gaming in a C64 plug and play joystick.

It wasn't her call though. She designed the hardware. The European owner of the Commodore brand itself and the manufacturer (Mammoth Toys) are the ones that decided on what games, the look, etc.
