I was sceptical about this when I first saw a posting about it elsewhere, but I stopped in on the off-chance today and what do you know? There they were. So I snapped one up. :D

So, what are they like? Are the games close to the originals on the Commodore 64? Do they play well without a keyboard? Inquiring minds want to know!

My Mother actually works part time at a KB.

I just called her and they have a bunch.

 

I can see about getting them for people if you want to pay

cost and shipping from cold ass Connecticut.

All I can say is WOW! It is really nice. Granted, I haven't used a C64 in 12 years (when I was 4) but it was very nice. I'm sure it's like the real thing, as it does use real hardware shrunk down. It even goes through the command line startup you see in a real C64.

Not only is it the real thing, but it was designed so that you could take it apart and hook up a keyboard and disk drive.

I know, that's half the reason I got it :D

 

you can't use a standard computer floppy, can you? I'm guessing you need a commodore one, but I dunno.
