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?

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.

Interesting.👍Where can you even get this produced?

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 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).😅

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.😉

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.
