The C64 Mini Is Available Now In North America

A blast back to the past

Strap on your retro glasses and prepare to go back to the 80s! The C64 Mini has officially been released in North America. A 50 percent smaller version of the original Commodore 64, which originally launched in 1982, was released on October 9th! The nostalgia-infused gaming console comes with a keyboard and attachable joystick to give players an authentic Commodore 64 experience.

The C64 Mini is chock full of pre-downloaded titles, including California Games, Winter Games, Impossible Mission II, Boulder Dash, Jumpman, Pitstop II, Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe, Street Sports Baseball, Summer Games II, and the Temple of Apshai Trilogy. It’s an impressive lineup of games for adults who want to re-experience their childhood and young people who want to get a bit of a history lesson on retro gaming.

A few key changes coming in The C64 Mini include updated visuals, USB ports, save functionality, and the ability to update games. These changes should give The C64 Mini a more updated feel, so it won’t be too jarring for newcomers.

The C64 Mini follows in the footsteps of Nintendo, which launched the NES Classic and SNES Classic over the last two years. Sony has also recently gotten into the business of capitalizing on people’s nostalgia by announcing the PlayStation Classic earlier this year.
