Lykia is one of those games that look stunning, but that I could never get into.
What are your games that you wanted to like, but just didn‘t cut it for you?

If you have a dead 8501 CPU I can absolutely recommend the 6502 adapter by MCes. It is very compatible and uses a regular 6502A CPU (or 6502 known to be working at 1.8MHz) and fits nicely inside the C16. There is also a variant with slightly modified layout for the Plus/4.

New video! I'm building a Magic Desk style multi program cartridge for the Commodore 264 line of machines.

Many hours later… it’s far from perfect but I’m happy I did it (some major discoloration on the backside, some of my supports were very unfortunately placed so I had to do a bit of filing but it works). Closeups are too embarrassing. I’m still a 3d printing noob. #C16 #C116 #Plus4 #Cartridge
I built a C264 Magic Cart (which is a Magic Desk style cartridge for the C16/116/Plus4 which can access up to 2MB of software from EPROMs). It’s very cool indeed!

Some TheRetroChannel-flavored C264-Series RF-Modulator replacements are just in from Australia!
(I only need two, for my C16 and my main Plus/4,, the other two will go on to someone else, but this way we shared the cost on shipping.)
New video! Trying to fix a really badly broken Commodore 16, taking numerous wrong turns along the way.

New video: Commodore C16 From Hell Repair
This is another dead Commodore machine from the pile of machines that eazy brought over at the beginning of the year. This time it is a TED machine: the venerable C16. It is completely dead, shows no signs of life. But this has never stopped us. Probably a dead CPU. How bad can it be, eh?
New video for Patrons:

You asked, we delivered! Replacement springs for your #C64, #Plus4, #C16, and #VIC20 are now available!
Perfect for those springs that mysteriously vanished across the room—never to be seen again. Grab yours here: https://retrorewind.ca/c64-keyboard-spring
Got versions working on #C64 and #C16 / #Plus4
I need to sort out the game save/load on the #Commodore machines however.
My sights are also on the humble #VIC20
The C16 from @eazy is fully restored. The broken 64K mod was replaced with one from Idörégész. The cut traces were restored. So if anyone wants to bring the C16 back to factory condition, it is now possible. Although the mainboard is a bit beat up, and the bottom shell has two cutouts. Would be nice to have a replacement bottom shell...

New video: C1531 Datassette Refurb
The Commodore Datassette is a very classic and iconic piece of equipment. It had a couple of variants. Today we have a black C1531 for the Commodore 264 range of computers: C116, C16 and Plus/4. It has some mechanical issues that we will try to fix.

#Elite loaded up on my #Commodore Trinity; #C64, #C16 and #VIC20
Ten more tcbm2sd cartridges will start their journey to Hungary tomorrow.
Let’s figure out where the noise is coming from. On the C16 and any other 264 series machine the TED chip does audio, video and I/O. Pin 33 on the chip is the sound output it seems. During a directory listing this stays flat on the scope. When I run a game we can see the waveform. So this rules out the TED chip I would say.

But what is VERY weird on this machine is that you can HEAR the IEC bus. It only happens on disk transfers. I really want to figure out why this happens.
