Precent robotic toys from taking over the toy store while avoiding Hefty Helga in this classic action platform game for the Commodore 64, TOY BIZARRE!

Wir haben uns das neue Virtual Boy-"Remake" für die Nintendo Switch geschnappt und testen, ob das 80-Dollar-Gadget wirklich das Retro-Feeling von damals zurückbringt oder einfach nur absurd ist. Wir blicken zurück auf die Geschichte des kuriosen 3D-Kastens, reden über unsere eigenen, frühen VR-Erfahrungen und diskutieren, warum Virtual Reality sich bis heute schwertut. Außerdem werfen wir einen kritischen Blick auf den ganzen Markt der Retro-Konsolen: SNES Mini, Amiga 500 Mini, C64 und Co. – Kauft man das eigentlich nur für die Vitrine? Unsere Community-Umfrage zeigt ein klares Bild: Für die meisten sind es am Ende doch nur teure Staubfänger.

There is a class action lawsuit in the UK against Valve over their 30% fee on every transaction, and I explain why Valve is the target right now and not any of the other storefronts that also have a 30% fee. Sony has patented a controller that has movable buttons on a touchscreen, and I talk about why it will be great as an option, but not a replacement for tactile buttons.

You do however need to provide kickstart ROMs to get it working, but if you own Amiga Forever from Colanto then you already have them!

After 5 years, we welcome back the team who worked behind Project Cars and talk with them - now under the studio name of Straight4 - about their newest sim racing project, which could be seen as a spiritual successor named Project Motor Racing. Social Media Manager Fernando Moutinho and Head of Communications and Marketing Alex Martini join us to talk about their plans with the franchise, what differs from Project Cars, what will improve and what is unique, especially in regards in trying to give an almost equal experience on current gen consoles as well, without watering down the experience compared to the PC version and what it means for a sim racer to rely on the Giant engine which was previously exclusively used for Farming Simulator. This and more is discussed in this pretty frank interview! The interview starts at minute 23:54

TCW Podcast Episode 246 - The History of Commodore Pt 3 After Jack Tramiel left Commodore and founded Tramel Technology, the company pressed on with mixed results. Systems like the SX 64, the C900, the Plus/4, the C16, and the C116 failed to gain traction, which led to the development of the C128. It improved on the C64 in many ways, but because so many games relied on C64 quirks, Commodore included a full C64 mode to preserve compatibility, so software support was poor. During this period Amiga was shopping its advanced chipset and entered a tentative agreement with Atari, but Jack's impending purchase of Atari from Warner disrupted the arrangement. Commodore stepped in to pay off the outstanding note, which led to Commodore acquiring Amiga outright. This set the stage for the Amiga 1000, its famous bouncing ball demo, and a new chapter in Commodore's history as the company entered the sixteen bit era   TCW 2025 Livestream: https://youtu.be/BXXAhEVD4Lk   Computer Chronicles Revisited - SMOliva: https://computerchronicles.blog/post/computer-chronicles-revisited-038-atari-520st-commodore-128/   Computer Chronicles Revisited - SMOliva: https://computerchronicles.blog/post/computer-chronicles-revisited-052-amiga-workbench-deluxe-paint-neochrome-vip-professional/   Commodore C900: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbVjNInzrw8 Commodore SX-64: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIGjT-RjNbk Commodore Plus 4 C16 & C116: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICiZbUypMlQ XKCD - Workflow: https://xkcd.com/1172/ Star Raiders (Atari 8-bit): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwqMqmo_jho Joyboard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdFzdz3o1hU Boing Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlAhRJjOhDg Amiga 1000: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjapiUQOi2s Launch Event of the Amiga in 1985: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OeQ5uzm-Qs Amiga 1000 Sidcar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPfArIhoy0s   TCW 172 - The Computer Price Wars Pt 1: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-price-wars-part-1/ TCW 173 - The Computer Wars Pt 2: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-wars-part-2/ TCW 174 - The Computer Wars Pt 3: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-wars-part-3/   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1   Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

TCW Podcast Episode 245 - The History of Commodore Pt 2   Commodore's shift from calculators to computers began with the PET, which found success in Europe as a business machine. After seeing the ZX80 in Britain, Jack Tramiel pushed for an affordable home computer, leading to the VIC-20. Guided by marketing manager Michael S. Tomczyk, Commodore promoted the VIC-20 as “the friendly computer” with William Shatner as spokesman. It first launched in Japan before reaching the United States and Europe, becoming a hit worldwide. Building on that success, Commodore released the C64, featuring the powerful SID sound chip and far more memory than its competitors. Marketed again under Tomczyk's direction at a price under six hundred dollars, the C64 became one of the best-selling computers of all time, driving Commodore's revenue past a billion dollars and securing its place in computing history.   TCW 2025 Livestream: https://youtu.be/BXXAhEVD4Lk   TCW 165 - Allied Leisure: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/allied-leisure/ TCW 172 - The Computer Price Wars Part 1: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-price-wars-part-1/ TCW 173 - The Computer Price Wars Part 2: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-wars-part-2/ TCW 174 - The Computer Price Wars Part 3: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-wars-part-3/ TCW 130 - Uncle Clive's Radionics: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/uncle-clives-radionics/ TCW 131 -  Sir Clive of ZX: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/sir-clive-of-zx/   KIM-1 Computer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMxOWngmy8I The 8-Bit Guy - Commodore PET: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eP9y_7it3ZM The 8-Bit Guy - Commodore VIC-20: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg04GyhS3ss The 8-Bit Guy - Commodore C64: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpXFB8ZEH30 Commodore VIC-20 Commercials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ak0YU8ymkBc Wiliam Shatner VIC-20 Commercials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JAU9Ntpoms Commodore 64 Commercials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nd_yiMhu1DM   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1   Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

Interview with Karl Hornell - C64 Game Developer, Cartoonist, Author Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/FloppyDays Sponsors: 8-Bit Classics  Arcade Shopper  FutureVision Research   Hello, and welcome to episode 155 of the Floppy Days Podcast for September, 2025!  I'm Randy Kindig, your host for this podcast, where we talk about the computers that got many of us started in our careers and which still hold a lot of interest for us today. This month, I'm bringing you another interesting interview with someone who at an early age started developing commercial-grade software for the Commodore 64, which started him on an amazing trajectory with his career in software development, cartoonist, and more.  His latest efforts include branching out into writing science fiction, which we will also discuss today. The person I'm referring to is Karl Hornell (Her-NELL). It's also an interesting story around how this interview opportunity came to me.  I'm not used to getting contacted by an ad agency.  This one indicated that their client, Karl, had just recently published a book and was looking for ways to advertise the book.  They suggested that Floppy Days would be a great fit based on Karl's background and could be beneficial for both.  I was skeptical at first, as I always am when I receive unsolicited, possibly spam email.  However, once I researched Karl's background it became clear that he was an accomplished Swedish developer for the C64 back in the day, with some notariety.  I felt his background might indeed be of interest to you, the listeners, and so happily agreed to interviewing Karl for the podcast.  I hope you enjoy Karl's story and will consider taking a look at his new book.

Benedikt und und Andy haben sich in Folge 34 mal wieder vergessenen Spieleschätzen gewidmet. Sönke konnte aufgrund seines Urlaubs jedoch nicht mit von der Partie sein. Dabei hatte er sich mit dem Action-Adventure First Samurai vom britischen Entwickler Vivid Image einen echten Geheimtipp ausgesucht, dem seiner Meinung nach rückblickend zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit zuteilwurde. Das Spiel erschien im September 1991 für Amiga und Atari ST, wurde 1992 für den C64 und 1993 schließlich auch für MS-DOS und Super Nintendo umgesetzt. Auf Kultboy.com findet ihr die damaligen Testberichte aus Power Play und Co. Wer First Samurai heute spielen möchte: Der Klassiker ist bei Steam und GOG erhältlich, allerdings handelt es sich hierbei um die SNES-Portierung. Das Amiga-Original sowie die PC-Fassung gibt's drüben bei Gamesnostalgia.com. Viel Spaß! Sönke & Benedikt
