A lot has changed since the late 1980s. I can now run Thunder Blade off of a flash cartridge (EasyFlash3). And in general I’ve grown so cynical of in-game product placement that it’s not even funny.

      Yes… You want to touch it…

      But before clicking clack, tip it upside-,down and give it a couple bangs.

      A whole new wooooorld! (Don’t you dare cover your mouth)

      That’s a commodore computer, their keyboards aren’t terrible but they’re kind of squishy and not the best

        I actually really like the C64 keyboards - not perfect by any means, but they are some of the best keyboards in the 8-bit computers, really.

        Fun thing, I wrote one NaNoWriMo novel on a C64, so I don’t think the typing comfort is too much of an issue. Though for that experiment I actually used my C64C, because the low-profile case makes things a tiny bit more ergonomic. (I don’t use it that C64 specimen much for other purposes, because it has a busted/temperamental SID. The one in the picture is my C64G, which is one of the last models produced, basically C64C guts in a breadbin-style case.)
