THEC64Mini is an updated version of the Commodore 64 home computer, manufactured by Retro Games Ltd. and distributed by Koch Media.

C64
History
If you wanted to capture your youth and you wanted a Commodore 64 that was full size (virtually identical to the original Commodore 64) built with modern technology, then THE C64 is the obvious choice.
Even though I already own an original breadbin Commodore 64, its still and old 64 and even with future proofing and maintenance I am still restricted to RGB Scart output at best, so this is the ideal solution to provide the best HDMI picture quality.
Even better, you don’t have to wait ages for the games on tape to load. With this solution, its all instant so its a win win.
The C64 is back, this time full-sized with a working keyboard for the dedicated retro home-computer fan.
Featuring three switchable modes – C64, VIC 20, and Games Carousel.
Connect to any modern TV via HDMI for crisp 720p HD visuals, at 60 Hz or 50 Hz.
An updated joystick, now featuring micro switches, companions the hardware making the included games even more fun than ever.
The Games Carousel has 64 pre-installed games including classics such as California Games, Paradroid and Boulder Dash, with new additions like Attack of the Mutant Camels, Hover Bovver, Iridis Alpha, and Gridrunner.
Topped off with the recently released shoot ’em up Galencia and text adventure Planet of Death to let you relive the glory days of true keyboard gaming!
Plus, THEC64® allows you to load and save your own files and games via USB stick (including multi-disk titles) and program in C64 or VIC 20 BASIC.
