Commodore USA to Release Updated Commodore 64

Gizmag.com reports:

Commodore USA has just announced that it has reached a licensing agreement that will allow it to produce a full line of new Commodore branded All-in-One (AIO) keyboard computers and intends to start selling an exact replica of the original beige chassis C64. Cue some misty eyed reminiscing from a large part of our readership.

waste of funds right here

Edit
times have changed and many build their own gaming rigs...

No way.

Commodore64 was, is and will always remain... a legend amongst real gamers.
Millions of gamers got their gamer fix on the c64, a decade prior to the ps1.

Any gamer worth his salt will know that the c64 takes its place in gaming history among the atari 2600 http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/cla... and colecovison http://www.shytomonline.com...

A new c64?
I say... simply awesome.

@ commodore64 Hells yeah bra! I can't count the hours me and my bro spent on our 64 playing games. It's good to see some love being brought back to some of the starters!

The Amiga 1200 with the Motorola 68060 was my personal favorite from Commodore, although obviously it was released much later.

For those of us that remember the C64. Hell, my Commodore monitor still works. The computer broke long long ago, but I knew i hung on to the monitor for a reason. The again I still have my vic20 aswell.

If you bring back classics true gamers will buy it! That's why people on ebay are still buying the 8 bit NIN and it's games!

I would have been perfectly happy with an exact replica of the original. Seriously. Some Lode Runner or Impossible Mission in their 8-bit glory would have been right up my alley.

jakethesnake5717d ago

What I wouldn't give to play me some impossible mission!

Commodore USA doesn't want to move into the modern era.. They miss the old days & in doing so have shown support for their product here.. Awww :(

Question is, Is there anyone out there who still love to play this old toy??
