I dont mind for criticism, it is needed for sure. If it is not false. For example, Mini's joystick is of bad quality, some of them have serious issue: stick easily break. Or: multiple-disk games are pita to set it up. But: those rumours like colour peeling off, enormous delay of joystick...

I saw facts that dozens were paid to make false negative critics. Others are just parrots, repeating false claims. Like you. Btw I'm using my old Quickshot and wireless PS2 gamepad with Mini all the time. Still using Mini's joystick here and there. But it will sucks for you anyway, so what's the...

:D:D:D Now you make me laugh! I am using it all the time (not just me, thousands), never heard of that! Mind you, I am not gentle with that. But not a scratch there, nor peeling off. I just tried to scratch it off with my nail... ROFL Yeah because... it is rocket science and we're living in...

I had to borrow this, from fb thread on the same subject:

Not comparable. Pyra needs precise, miniature keyboard, lighten keycaps, bells and whistles that are not needed here. TheC64 Mini already exists (and is selling very well). They'll put same AllWinner SOC in there, maybe updated version of same board. Software (firmware) will be updated for sure...

Nothing new there, just a video showing the same. Although, gadgets with logo (cap and wallet) are cute.

Maybe because it is more ergonomic? Maybe they plan more surprises to put in ;) It is not definite design, anyway afaik.

New update from TheC64. Before some starts weird comment regards absence of any slots at the back side. consider this: "To be clear, anything and everything could change as the work continues, so please don’t assume anything just yet as we transition towards the final specification."

^ Video was (forced to be) removed, then it is uploaded again. New link below. Speaking of KickScammers, judgement occurs today - D. Levy & his gang is ordered to pay £38k legal costs bill to Paul Andrews and Chris Smith. (and confirmed, P. Andrews is officially free of all false accusations...

You never typed in data lines? Really? Well, we employed once Sam/Reciter ("Say It") to read it for us, in search for typos. It was that thing I missed at C64: e.g. you recalculate your sprites or music, and then - type, type, type... Btw, as a student I was employed at AmEx to enter "slips"...

New firmware update added Galencia to Carousel (Menu) of Mini. What a lovely gift for Christmas! But there is one potentially annoying thing with this update: it brings "virtual joystick" to numeric pad, 2 configuration (NumLock on/off). But it means no numerics at numpad anymore! People who...

https://thec64.com/faq/ There are six different display modes available on THEC64 Mini. Pixel perfect, European 4:3 and North American 4:3. Each mode can then have a CRT filter applied, to match how the C64 games displayed on older TVs. You don’t have to adjust any settings on your HD TV or...

What is problem with that? One company is Retro Games LTD, other is Retro Computers LTD. RGL != RCL. Chris Smith is founder of RCL. Smith, Andrews, Levy and Sinclair Research Ltd are 4 shareholders, each having 25%. Smith and Andrews resigned as directors of RCL few years ago, but are still...

Today came firmware update v1.1.4. It is 5th in a row iirc.

The C64 Mini got a new firmware v1.1.2, that allows easier handling of files etc. Easy handling of e.g .d82 (1mb!) and .crt (e.g. EasyFlash, some reported EF3 working?), in combination with save-state game slots makes this cute thing quite usable. more info here...

(un)official statement from OpenPandora GmbH regarded to RCL business practice. It means that e.g. DragonBox would not / should not sell gadgets from company that stole money dedicated to sick children, do not pay IP royalties to authors of games (since 1st Vega!), does not release modded source...

Still avoiding the subject :D I always thought you're more HM guy... well then: Words like violence Break the silence Come crashing in Into my little world Painful to me Pierce right through me ... Words are trivial Pleasures remain So does the pain ... Enjoy the silence \m/ EvilDolphin

Actually no, he resigned right before campaign. He is just a shareholder. http://retro-computers.co.uk/levy-leaks/campaign-owner/ Once when Pyra is ready, I want you to find *real*, serious investors, to start serious production. If Gemini did, Pyra should do the same. Just, beware of the scale...

If anybody should know how much this Vega+ affair is *toxic* for their own project(s), it should be you. Just to remind you of one similarity : Craigix used your name for iCP2 crowdfunding exactly the same way as Levy used Andrews (at IGG). Moreover, one of the "crew" here (he knows who he is)...

ED, that's all from above what you find interesting to comment? Pathetic. YES, you're right - literally speaking, but everybody should know what that means. Testing of hardware is not made, not according to EU ("the essential requirements that products have to fulfil")...
