A review of the ComHub 64, a 3D printed replica of the Commodore 1541 floppy drive that doubles as a USB extension cable — a fun, nostalgic solution to the awkward rear USB ports on the C64 Ultimate.

The C64 Ultimate has a built-in FTP server, making it easy to transfer D64s, SID files, cartridge images and more directly from your modern computer.

A modern take on a retro concept — the Audio Adventures system from Truman Toys & Games is a cartridge-based electronic game player that brings the choose your own adventure experience to life through rich audio drama.

A review of the Commodore 64 FDD Power Monitor, a neat device from Australian maker bluebolt12 that lets you quickly and safely test the power output of your 1541-II and 1581 Commodore PSUs.

After months of watching the order status go nowhere, my C64 Ultimate Starlight Edition has finally arrived.

In this post, I take a proper rummage through Issue 7 of Amiga Point of View, giving you a taste of the articles, humour, and Amiga goodness on offer.

I’ve been building a small hardware tester for Commodore and Atari joysticks.

Spotted this incredibly nostalgic little ‘Maclock’ whilst browsing AliExpress a couple of weeks ago and immediately fell in love with the design.

This cool looking Gizmo is the ‘C64 Tape Pulse Visualizer’ and is the creation of a guy who goes by the handle of @BWACK on the internet and has been manufactured and supplied by the good folks over at Shareware Plus.

This astonishing little package from Shareware Plus dropped through my letterbox a few days ago.

After being thoroughly impressed with APoV’s inaugural printed magazine back in January of this year I was thrilled to receive the latest edition through my letterbox a few days ago!

Delighted that I’ve finally got my hands on an A600GS system from AmigaKit.
