With the resurgance of retro gaming hardware enabling us to play old classics on big TV's with lots of built in games such as the NES Mini, SNES Mini, Playstation 1 Classic and the C64 Mini you'd be forgiven in thinking there wasn't much else to announce by the end of this year. Well The C64 crew have something to shout about and in a pretty big way, as they have just announced the full-size pre-production prototype of ‘THEC64’, complete with a fully functional integrated keyboard, giving you a taster of what’s coming in 2019!
Yes indeed if the C64 Mini let you down making you feel extremely frustrated having no keys to press even though a keyboard was staring you in the face, you'll be pleased to know the next version will have a real working keyboard built into what looks to be a much bigger C64 Mini! Although the team Retro Games Ltd have shown off a number of prototype pictures direct from their manufacturing partners, they do say there will be small modifications here and there, but atleast it's proof a keyboard working version of the C64 mini will be coming in 2019 or beyond as TheC64.
