C64 DTV



I spotted this on Ebay for £15, obviously I had to buy it immediately



It's a C64 recreated in FPGA and housed in a Zipstick style joystick, it has headers on the board for a C64 keyboard and a 1541 disk drive. This console is very hackable, it is also loaded to the brim with Easter eggs, including tons of hidden software, games, demos, and the full BASIC mode



Video and audio RCA plugs at the end of a very long lead



Side profile and base



Extra buttons and power switch/LED



It takes four AA batteries



Power LED on



The boot screens, nice to see the chicken head logo again



The menu loading, this is probably an animation.

LOAD"*",8,1



These are the games most users will see



They all play as expected



If you wobble the stick side to side quickly as the device is booting it loads a different menu

LOAD"$",8,1

You can pick what to load, including the BASIC option with the joystick and fire button



If you boot to basic and do a directory listing, there's loads to choose from, I had to use the on-screen keyboard to pause the listing



Here are a couple of images which are further Easter eggs, a couple of Commodore legends, and the development team behind the C64DTV



Here is the Entropy demo

This device is awesome!
