I went thrifting today and scored these. #Tekken 5 and #RidgeRacer were 5 bucks a pop and the #Matchbox Battle Kings vehicles were 4. They are a little damaged though. I wonder if I can fix them.🤔

One of my all time favourite games.😍 Oh the hours we spent on the arcade cocktail table of this game. Left most of my coins in there.

Wow, this is seriously cool stuff!Congrats.👍 Can you also read old bank switching cartridges with the programmer board?

This is really awesome!👍

A new 2 megabyte #Commodore64 flash cartridge and a Raspberry Pi hat programming tool, with software running on the Raspberry Pi that can erase, write, and read the cartridge flash memory. #OpenSource

I remember being green with envy when the neighbours' boy had one of these and I "only" had a VIC-20. Still fond memories though of playing "slingshot" on it. Hours of fun.

This is the way!

It's actually not an XT, but a 5150.

I spotted this #IBM XT in the wild at one of my customers' meeting rooms.
Beautiful machine with two floppy drives and a tape drive.😍

Interesting.👍Where can you even get this produced?

Show me your getaway vehicle.
(OK, this one might be a bit tight).

Atari seems to make some good profit again, thanks to new backwards compatible consoles (2600+, 7800+) and their cartridge sales.
It would be insanely cool if you'd have a similar approach, or at least a kickstarter.🙏🙏🙏

I clearly don't have enough shelves for all my boxed consoles and computers.🤔

I love the C64 cartridge version and the fact that it runs on a C64GS.
You could probably make a ton of money by re-issuing cartridges for the C64.
Btw you still owe me some releases from back in the days (Vendetta, Last Ninja 3).😅

I went thrifting today.
Here are some pictures of what I *didn't* buy.
Resisting the urge to buy that little crt TV for 45 quid was particularly hard.😄
VHS tape for size comparison.

Isn't that the Italian "How can I forget those days" guy who:
•Claims to have some rights on the brand.
•Creates fake products to keep those rights.
•Sues everyone, which is really his only revenue stream.

I use Paint dot net.
It has the spirit and simplicity of paint but is way more powerful.
Plus there's a host of great plugins.

Great work.👍
Tagging @agnpaints.bsky.social on this. You guys have something in common.

I believe the term "expectation management" is appropriate for that. At least that's what I call it.😉

Happy to report, that further testing was successful on this modern hardware, the #Atari7800+.
Once I got the hang of it, the game was quite fun and addictive.

Yeah, except the Mega65 has an established fan and developer base AND it supports a variety of alternative FPGA cores.
As much as I love the Ultimate64 inside the C64U, it's missing some critical functionality to take this anywhere beyond an (excellent) C64 fpga implementation.

Well, maybe we could start a support group "Joystick collectors anonymous".😄
Don't get me started on controllers, lol.

Wow, congratulations!🥳
You really have come a long way. Great Job!👍

Not a criticism to Sean or Gideon by the way.
They both did a great job at keeping people in the loop with full transparency of the status.

That wouldn't surprise me.
I waited several months for the Myretrocomputer case and over a year for the Ultimate64.
Unless Sean and Gideon each kept a few items in private stock, I don't see them giving away any machines.
It's also why I'm sceptical about the current timeline (October, isn't it?)

This is very real and the final product will be one of the best new C64 available (close call with the Mega65).
It will be a combination of the Ultimate64 and a Myretrocomputer case.
Source1: Update #71 of the case kickstarter.
Source2: Official team list (Gideon is on that list).

There's no reasoning with these people. Technically this will be one of the best modern C64 products, period.
I guess the nay sayers act out of jealousy and fanboyism.
The fact that new commodore made 1 or 2 poor choices when staffing the team has nothing to do with the product.

I am fairly confident that they can deliver the new Commodore 64 Ultimate. Mainly because it's a compilation of products/parts that already exist.
The greater challenge will be to keep the company afloat with "new" products and avoid this becoming a one hit wonder.
