The Commodore C64 was my first computer and one always keep a special place in ones heart, for the first…
A few years ago I got a new The C64 fullsize copy of the ol’ 64, for my birthday.
This year I got a C64 style PC keyboard, which is just awesome!
It’s not a true copy of the C64 keyboard, but a in style, homage to it.
It comes with a 4-way on/off joystick and a two megabutton pad, that can be linked to the keyboard and macro programmed.
The color of the keys and case look really good and it has the iconic red domed power light of the real C64.
A comparison to The C64 as I don’t have a real one to compare it with.
The case color is a little different, but the real C64 Breadbox case plastic color did also differ some between production batches, so I’ll allow it.
Note the cool Basic Ready prompt T-shirt…
Unfortunately the keyboard doesn’t have a num pad, which I need. I was ecstatic to see that they make separate num pads for this keyboard and ordered one immediately!
8BitDo has other keyboard styles as well.
