  • The C64 Mini looks the part and features a considerable lineup of games, many of which are just as fun and charming today as they were thirty years ago. Further, support for ROMs and firmware upgrades gives the system an appreciable edge over competing pr...

  • Beautiful classic shell that recalls the original without being slavish, Save states and suspend features, Big library of games...
  • that is unfortunately lacking some of the system's best titles, Stiff joystick that at times hampers play, No game manuals on the system or in the box
  • A very nice looking, functional little throwback hindered by some unfortunate design choices and some blind spots in the games library...

  • Huge selection of games, Adorable mini design, Runs BASIC and ROMs, HDMI cable included in the box
  • Controller cord is short, Controller generally feels unresponsive, ROM launching process is frustrating, No AC adapter in the box
  • While a great deal of care and attention to detail has gone into the creation of the C64 Mini, we can't help but consider the retro console as something of a missed opportunity for fans. On the one hand, it's cool that you can load up BASIC and use the C6...

  • Looks exactly like an old C64 only smaller, Comes with joystick in the box, Control buttons are on the joystick, 64 games included, Can load your own game files, 720p HDMI output
  • Only a handful of games are truly classic, The joystick is a little plasticky, Loading your own games is currently fiddly
  • Whether you'll find The C64 Mini to be right up your strasse or not entirely depends on how fondly you remember the original and how much you're willing to spend on a handful of essential classic games and many you might not be as familiar with.There's no...

  • Decent selection of games, Excellent, faithful emulation, Can load your own games…
  • … although doing so is a faff, Cramp-inducing joystick lacks precision, Many games are brutally unforgiving
  • For some people, the C64 Mini will be nothing more than a shrunken facsimile of a relic, and nothing will make them engage with ancient games, beyond the briefest bout of curiosity. And yet because so many modern mobile titles visually echo their C64 ance...

  • Abstract:  Without wanting to reheat old playground arguments, I had a ZX Spectrum, my school had BBC Micros, but everyone was secretly a bit jealous of the kids who had a Commodore 64. Not, of course, that we'd tell them that at the time. But the use of sprites, th...

  • Gorgeous recreation of the original Commodore, ROMs are optimized to load fast and run reliably, Supports loading your own ROMs
  • Pretty terrible joystick
  • In spite of a few shortcomings, I have completely loved spending time with this tiny love letter to the world of Commodore 64 gaming. Just looking at the console itself brings me joy and when I am lying on my stomach in front of the TV playing some awesom...

  • Clearly put together with love, Hardware itself looks nice, Easy way to play old games for novices unwilling to learn emulation
  • Joystick is bad, Game selection is pretty bad, Adding more games is difficult but still necessary
  • Here's the rub: This thing exists not because there's a lot of demand for it but because Nintendo started a trend.Nostalgia is a great filter, because your brain dumps the bad stuff and leaves you with warm, fuzzy, incorrect records of what happened. What...

  • Great idea, Well executed, Good build, A retro games console for the ‘uninitiated.', Games selection is OK, not great, Quick, almost instant turn on to play,
  • Pity the joystick is so true to 80's life, hard to add games and fanatics will want to do so
