A number of different joystick adapters have been constructed for use with the C64. The Classical Games / Protovision adapter is by far supported by the largest number of games. While building instructions are available for most of the adapters, a few adapters are also available commercially. The adapters are also emulated in some of the C64 ...
The V-1541 program allows your Commodore 64 computer to access files and other content on the Internet at CommodoreServer.com. CommodoreServer.com is a Virtual Disk Drive to which you can upload D64 disk images from any Internet computer and later download the disk from the Commodore 64. [10] Disk transfer
Seagate ST 506 5 1 ⁄ 4-inch HDD with cover removed.. Late in 1984, Fiscal Information Inc., of Florida, demonstrated the Lt. Kernal hard drive subsystem for the C64.The Lt. Kernal mated a 10 megabyte Seagate ST-412 hard drive to an OMTI SASI intelligent controller, creating a high speed bus interface to the C64's expansion port.
The Retrode was based on an Atmel AVR microcontroller (AT90USB646) with an integrated USB interface, connecting to cartridge slots and game controller ports via the microcontroller's GPIO pins. [5] Its updateable firmware was based on the LUFA library by Dean Camera, [ 1 ] and was developed mainly by Hullin with the help of a few users.
The best-known floppy disk drive for the C64, the 1541 is a single-sided 170-kilobyte drive for 5¼" disks. The 1541 directly followed the Commodore 1540 (meant for the VIC-20). The disk drive uses group coded recording (GCR) and contains a MOS Technology 6502 microprocessor, doubling as a disk controller and on-board disk operating system ...
In later versions of Fast Hack'em, disk copying can be performed without the computer if two Commodore 1541 disk drives are available. The software is loaded with a Commodore 64, the two-drive option is selected which transfers software to the drives' controller memory, and the serial cable can be disconnected from the computer.
The C64 Direct-to-TV computer-in-a-joystick unit. C64 Direct-to-TV. The C64 Direct-to-TV, called C64DTV for short, is a single-chip implementation of the Commodore 64 computer, contained in a joystick (modeled after the mid-1980s Competition Pro joystick), with 30 built-in games. The design is similar to the Atari Classics 10-in-1 TV
An internal floppy drive and controller are required as well; USB floppy drives operate strictly at the file system level and do not allow low-level disk access. [9] The WD1770 controller chip, however, was the seat of some early problems with 1581 drives when the first production runs were recalled due to a high failure rate; the problem was ...
