@VirtualJames @commodoreofcl The cart has everything made for the MAX-04. Off the top of my head I think its 33 games, BASIC and BASIC Max so 35 programs.

@CharlesHawn66 @commodoreofcl Awesome mate, was just looking at the 1200. Some of these are getting very hard to find now, certainly boxed like yours

@VirtualJames @commodoreofcl Yes, I do. I have always been a box saver. The VICMODEM, MODEM 1200 and 1351 mouse are mine from the 80's. The two 1764 REUs I have got since I started collecting in September 2021.

@CharlesHawn66 @commodoreofcl That is the most impressive drive collection I've seen. I've got three of those, I'd love a 1551 being a 264 fan like you, so rare and even when they come up, mega bucks!

@CharlesHawn66 @commodoreofcl That MAX, I will own one, I keep telling people I'm done collecting, then I see another machine I'd love to get! That's on there, and that modern cart for it looks cool too

Just completed Silent Hill: Shattered Memories on the Nintendo Wii. If you're a Silent Hill fan and you've not played it, check it out. I thought it was excellent, especially on the Wii with phone calls coming through your remote! youtu.be/42FF9ismMWY?si…

@CharlesHawn66 @commodoreofcl Still blows my mind that no only have you got a 116 (me too), but a few SX64s, a MAX! Some of your collection is so rare 😍

@gregnacu @beepfixer I'm with you GN. Giving us the option to load a tcp stack and sacrifice a second would be ideal. I'm just having a look now to see if anyones managed a mod, a virtual wic64 or the like. A long shot I'm sure

Lo and behold! I do have smaller ones. These thread perfectly, and look how much shorter they are. They’re perfect! 🤩 #C64

@MaxwellsRetro It’s a good point mate. Ideally but I’ve not seen one more mention of it having one

Oh yeah, that’s much better. Now it mounts in their perfectly. Next problem! That LED cable is about a foot too short. #C64

@gregnacu @beepfixer Exactly that GN a small adapter and if that needs power us a USB port or gpio pin depending on what Pi you use. Apparently no networking as he wants it as lightweight as possible so it’s almost instantly on. No latency

@VirtualJames @beepfixer Is there any hack or mod or optional way to get it to output a composite or svideo signal? Or maybe you just would need a standard HDMI to svideo adapter hidden away inside the C64 case. There is plenty of room!

@gregnacu @beepfixer Yes sorry it’s a shame isn’t it. Especially when the Pis can do it. I might message the creator about it. You’d imagine it’s possible

@VirtualJames @beepfixer I’ve just learned there’s no networking support (yet?). This makes me a bit sad. 😔 C64 OS more and more needs networking support to really get the most out of it.

Evening RIP Chuck Norris we met a few times in America just at the start of his film career, he asked me if I wanted to take up Karate I said no I'll stick to the aftershave (Hi Karate for those of you a little younger was an aftershave in the 70's & 80's) Chuck had amazing strength. Nice man
