This is now my favorite way to play old #Commodore64 games. The #C64 Mini with updated firmware to play games directly from USB, $40 (pre-tariffs). Easier than messing with my many other emulators as far as transferring files goes. Not quite convinced about the joystick though, but I have another one. As always, the first game to make sure it runs on any emulated C64 is #LodeRunner (and Tetris).

Next: getting a Maxi with full working keyboard.

The first level of the game Lode Runner on a Samsung tv. The level is made up of different red platforms with white ladders connecting the platforms. A dark person-shaped sprite [player character] is seen on the bottom, three white [enemy] characters are on higher platforms. Spread out over the level are several white-and-read squares. Text at the bottom shows the current level info: "Score0000000 Men005 Level001

Colors: the box is blue with a white cover, the C64 is beige with black an grey keys like the original, the joystick is black with a red grip. The box is seen on wooden background of different shades of brown.
