Hah. The keyboard shortcuts are really good to know. Thanks. I was afraid I'd have to fidget with that cjm format to get it to work. Thanks

Can't you kill the sensor if you drive IS sensitive to HD disks?

Wow, it seems Biker Dave is a copy of an older game that was on the Prinztronic 5000. A very strange console my Dad had in the early 80's. I actually loved that game when I was little. 😄 Nice video, thanks, and kudos for having the patience in this day and age!

My mom still complains about how we made her read these to us so we could type it in. Also my dad had a "boggle" game he sold on tape and sent them via mail order.

Oh man, me and my friend used to spend HOURS typing in those old programs only to discover that it didn't work! This was usually because one of us typed something wrong, but about 10% of the time it was Compute's fault and they would print a correct the following month. Some pretty great programs and games here and there over the years. Two that stand out were "Doodle", which was a fairly comprehensive art program with some impressive features for the day, though it only supported monochrome graphics (no multicolor mode); and "Turbo Tape" which was a utility to save your programs in a special format on tape so that it would load about 5 times faster than normal (close to disc drive speed in fact). It could load fast on any C64, even one that did not have Turbo Tape running on it, which I thought was very clever.

My dad and mom made a few of these which to this day are on deskets. I was fortunate enough to read them and put them on my PC. :) now I can enjoy them via emulation.

I love the cart edition

Is there only one level?

Hunting for typos either in your own typing or in the magazine listing was often more fun than the resulting game. For the amount of code this one is pretty impressive.

I loved that game on NES

Get good boomer

One of the first video games that I played as a kid. I loved it. Awesome game. This port is much better than the C64 version.

what kind im mumbo jumbo ia that "you can¨t us HD disks on an amiga" the 4000 is born with a HD drive and i have a HD drive internalky in my amiga 500 its been ther since 1989 and works fine with 1.76 mb disks wich is the amiga format of HD disks

A wonderful, admirable DESK for a vintage setup.

I hate that my c16 is dead. Looks so cool. Thanks for posting 🎉

I'm very surprised, an 8-bit computer from the early 80s that does not boot into Microsoft Basic.

shout out to that intellisense mouse

I do love the VIC-20. Thanks for showing it off.

Play the J version for joystick usage.

Ahhh, the sound of that printer reeling out my school assignments. Shocking character set without descending tails, but all that was rectified once I received GEOS with it's WYSIWYG feature. Next printer was a Commodore MP1230 which was another league.

It says you're running wb3.0, ehat commodities are you using to get that minimizing gagdet on the window?

I was sold a c16 with no chips. One day I’ll be gaming like you. Ty for this retro hit

Looks like a great option to play c64 on modern screens, it has loads of options for playing games, great video mate👍👍

A great game that always kicked my butt. Still does. :(

5:41 yes its like who cares what iphone have if they give usb cable with "their connection" and other end usbA yes everyone usabA. not even nerds had usbc when phones came usbc bcoz therte was no charger !!!! what they wanted safe nature and make smaller packaking end up everyone need buy charger its more packaking cost LOL. only need is cable that other end is COMMON and problem would be solved. no need charger it would charge from usbA slowly. no it have to be usbc-usbc so you need charger or damn adapter to plug it usbA. got it yet? lol

as i could knew, It’s OLD NEWS,but what i didn’t knew that it required the ram expansion to work,the gamegear has less ram then the C64 but it still could just run the entire game,but i guess that original version uses bankswitching while in this case i suppose the whole game has to be loaded into that ram expansion and run it from there, mmm.

This is a port of Master System/Game Gear version of Sonic 1. Amazing! Running extremely smoothly.

I had Radar Rat Race for my C64 back in the day. Just FYI to keep your eyes peeled for the C64 version.

Thanks for pointing out it is an REU game rather than just classing it as a "Commodore 64 game"

Amazing what can go into “retro” consoles. It plays so smoothly! Great video!

My Amiga 600 doesn't boot from 2HD disks at all. I mean, it can format them or copy files to them but it doesn't boot at all - always an error comes up.

Loose the joystick is 30 Euro. I don't consider hat very cheap for an item like this. Remember there's also Alisexpress. And I agree: throw away the joystick that comes w/ the Maxi or Mini: it's too stiff to use.

I REALY LOVE MY C64 ❤️❤ FOREVER ❤❤❤❤

I LOVE MY C64 ❤❤❤

Love that you have love for the +4

This looks like an interesting device. Where did you acquire this device from? Great video btw! Thank you for sharing!

10 points! I can use a game pad 🎉

Question: is it possible to connect a line printer via some usb adapter and get it to print from geos etc?

great channel bud just got my backbit latest cartridge with extra addons nice to see someone else using will be following :)

I have never seen this! Wish I had one

I spent hours and hours typing in various programs and games for these Commodores back in the day as a kid... wow... and lots of time finding typos , etc to fix... good old times.

Thank you very much ! I've tested the backup image with Winuae and it's exactly the same ! I lost so many hours creating the perfect CF card for my amiga 1200 and I was very afraid of losing all that at some point . 🙏🙏🙏

"Thy game is over." Lol. Have you read the book Ready Player One? (not the movie) There's a fun Joust reference in that novel.

I remember this as a young fella, I really hated having to go over all the lines to look for that 1 spelling error lol

It would be cool if you took that code and broke it down into a series of youtube shorts showing what line does what . I bought a c64 mini just to make games with , but one problem is that a standard keyboard does not have the same keys as a c64

I have several disk images of GEOS and so far I've only been able to get as far as a white screen on my maxi someone mentioned that there was something in the back of my manual that I had to use to rename GEOS in order to get iit to work this is driving me crazy any advice please I could have had several cups of coffee thats how long I waited where in the manual do I find this information

I love that you can now find the MAGAZINE DISKS archived ONLINE... I remember typing in all of those GAMES - and even ones with the MLX editor...Then when your game didn't work you had to wait till the corrections in the next issue...

I used to type in programs from Compute! magazine into my Atari XE. I remember I used to look at the Commodore 64 screenshots and lust over the better graphics. In retrospect it was probably more a case of the grass being greener on the other side of the fence. But I finally have that Commodore 64 now and I’ve scratched the itch by typing in a game. Loved every minute.

I wish one person could please show how to install GEOS no the c64 Maxi all I can ever find is how great this GEOS fricking is ffffffffffffuc''''''''''''''' it's driving me crazy got the mouse from retro games and can only use it on one game and the game sucks and yes I did the update to 1.6.1

I have one suggestion how do I install GEOS on the c64 maxi you can't just drop it in the usb thumb stick this stuff is driving me nutty
