Last but not least here are two game consoles, a rare #Apple #Pippin and an #Atari #Jaguar (I'm sure @Datassette_User will like this).
In fact, there are a dozen consoles and microcomputers connected, powerd up and ready to use at the #HomeComputerMuseum in #Helmond, #Netherlands - and of course, the museum is #airconditioned ... 🧊

The Commodore 64 manual came with a lot more stuff than I initially thought. There's also a CompuServe manual/documents, a VIC 1541 floppy drive manual, a C2N Datassette manual, a diagram of what to connect to your C64 and how, a flyer about the Commodore Information network (on CompuServe) and a flyer for VIC-20 software.

I watched MVG's "How Old-School Cassette Tape Drives Played Games" while I was playing #MadMixII, a great #PacMania clone made by #TopoSoft, on the #AmstradCPC emulator for the #Anbernic #RG353p and I was surprised to learn how different the #C64 #Datassette was (digital vs analog), how error correction worked and how some folks invented the Turbo Loader, which was a very small programme loaded at first which changed how the #C64 interpreted the data on the cassette.

Haul #4: Macintosh and CoCo1!
After my first visit to JJ's warehouse, I kept thinking about that tantalizing wall of Macintoshes. They just look so nice! A self-contained system in a small box.
So I went back and got a Macintosh SE with a disk, a Color Computer 1, two CoCo joysticks, a Commodore Datassette, several books of type-in C64 programs, and a bunch of C64 games, including Dig Dug, a childhood favorite of mine, Flight Simulator II, SID Player Music, Music Composer, Star Post, and Jupiter Lander.

En el año en que MSX cumple 40, estoy agregando muchas cosas geniales para la colección. 😊 Hace unos meses fue la llegada de la MSXVR, el cartucho ObsoNET y los Mapper Megaram de 512K. Ahora recibí una Spectravideo SVI-728 impecable, en caja, con manual, cables, fuente, datassette Mitsao y un lote de cassettes con juegos. 😍❤️🕹️ ¡Felicidad pura! 😃

Vielleicht für euch hörenswert?
Wir schreiben, wir sprechen, wir produzieren Videos … wahrscheinlich gab es noch nie so viele mediale Angebote im Umfeld von Videospielen wie heutzutage. Blogs, Podcasts, Streaming – für alle möglichen Geschmäcker finden sich Angebote. Aber warum eigentlich? Was treibt uns an?

Gern auch boosten! ❤️

I once was asked if I would like to pick up a #C64 that had been found from a basement of a newly bought house. I agreed to this, but failed to arrange the pickup. Despite this, I later was handed the #commodore duffel bag after an event we both attended – A proof that inactivity is in fact awarded eventually.
The system had been stored in the basement for number of years and the status of it was unknown. I took to the gear to the office and inspected the system and found out that 9-key had been sheared off by the stem, likely due to being hit by the famously heavy power brick. Opening the system up revealed no major visual issues such as excessive rust or similar. I also measured the PSU for overvoltage (high, but not yet alarming - I later obtained a replacement aftermarket PSU). @dist was happy to help with the broken key stem by #3dprinting a couple of new ones. Only a moderate amount of sanding was needed to make the stem run smoothly.
The included datassette still had a game tape inside it - which presumably had been sitting there for decades. I rewinded the tape, typed load and proceeded to hit press play on tape. The game loaded without a hitch. It turned out to be Battleships, which I immediately proceeded to test the joystick with. Unsurprisingly some directions in the Quickshot II joystick were dead, a very common mode of failure.
Later I also replaced the raspy 6581 #SID chip with FPGASID and added a #1541ultimate II+ cartridge from Gideon’s Logic BV, and brought over a vintage TAC-2 and a SpeedLink Competition Pro reproduction joysticks. The picture in my profile banner is of this office C64 system. #retrocomputing
