The World of Retro Gaming Welcomes the ‘C64 Mini’

Before Mario was saving the Princess on the ‘Super Nintendo’ and Pac-Man was evading Ghosts on ‘Atari’ there was a whole world of 8-bit graphics called ‘Commodore 64’. With the growing craze of throwback gaming, we could not leave the ‘Commodore 64’ out. The ‘C64 Mini’ is coming and with it all the 8-bit glory you care to play with.

The World of Retro Gaming Welcomes the 'C64 Mini'

The ‘C64 Mini’ comes with 64 of the original ‘Commodore 64′ games, a joystick, a USB power lead and HDMI cable. The Mini can be plugged into your television via the HDMI cable so you can either use two joysticks so you can play with your family and friends. The awesome feature with the C64 you can also plug in a real keyboard and program in new games.

The expected price tag for this retro game system is expected to be around $70.00 which is around the same as ‘Nintendo SNES Classic‘ and similar Atari systems. The maker of the Mini, Retro Games Ltd. had been working on a full-size replica of the ‘Commodore 64’ that was due to be released December of 2016 and of course has yet to be seen. Now that being said there is no definite release date for the ‘C64 Mini’ so all the old school gamers may have to wait a lot longer to get their hands on this gem.
