Husker du denne ? Retro-fans verden over jubler Den legendariske datagiganten Commodore har fรฅtt nytt liv. En youtuber har kjรธpt selskapet for et hemmelig sjusifret belรธp, og lanserer nรฅ en splitter ny Commodore 64-maskin.

We happily contributed to some commentaries from the Norwegian news outlet TV2 regarding the recent purchase of Commodore, and talked a bit about retro in general.

People think online is forever, and always there, but that's not the case. This morning while the internet was down for a few hours, I busted out my Evercade EXP-R and started Roguecraft DX. Already addicted, and dying to chickens and mimics.

This is the power of physical games.

Iโ€™ve waited ages for this - a new Amiga conversion to the #Evercade, which combines old school isometric dungeon crawling and cosmic horror

Game on!!!

Finally met in real life after actually having made a demo together in โ€˜95 and been online friends for decades โ€” snagged a signed edition of Roguecraft and canโ€™t wait to play it on my own A1200. Speaking of Amiga โ€” the demo machine is the same as Henning / Bridgeclaw used to bring to The Gathering.

Yeah, that is what happens when you release a game on Itch for a retro platform, and then someone else does not do their due diligence, and we go to Steam a year later. That is what you are missing.๐Ÿ˜Š
