  • It's quite in here

    There are other channels that are more active now than ever. I hope everyone is
    okay and healthy.

    I updated to the latest firmware for my C64 mini. They added a game I think and
    a few other nuances. I may load a petscii program on it to create screens for the door game I'm creating. Having loads of fun.

    I got the new joystick for $24.95 with free shipping from the UK a couple of days ago. They don't have any of the breadbox versions...but the joystick
    they do have. Here's the link: https://tinyurl.com/vl59pv4

    I followed your link and didn't find it. I went to the retro section and found the joystick for $26.89. strange price.

    Like selling a banana for $0.47 for two.

    Saw they jacked up the price by $2.00 US. The think I like about them is free shipping to this side of the pond & listing their prices in dollars...rather than pounds.

    Finally got to play around with the stick today. Noisy & kind of temperamental...but not too bad.

    I looked and found no bananas, but found one at the supermarket.
