The Commodore 64 returns!

The fully licensed re-imagining of the 80’s bestselling home computer – THEC64
Mini – will be released on the 29th March 2018.
Developed by Retro Games Ltd – and distributed by Koch Media – THEC64 Mini is half the size of the
original C64 and is a fully functioning home computer that connects directly to your television and
comes with two USB ports for the joystick and a keyboard.
Launched in 1982, the C64 home computer went on to dominate the home computer scene
throughout the 1980s. Millions of units were sold across the world and have a special place in the
hearts of its former owners.

35 years later and it’s back as the reimagined THEC64® Mini. Plugging into any modern TV via its HDMI
port, users can play any one of the 64 licensed classic pre-installed games. This includes games from
developers like Epyx, Gremlin Graphics, Hewson and The Bitmap Brothers boasting titles such as
California Games, Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe, Paradroid and Impossible Mission.
Also included is the classic puzzler Boulder Dash. The game sees ‘Rockford’ cavern crawling in search
of gems while trying to avoid creatures, cave-ins and gas explosions. Stephan Berendsen, President of
BBG Entertainment GmbH said: “Retro Games and BBG brought back together what has always
belonged dating back to 1984 – the C64 and Boulder Dash.”
Most of these games were rated over 90% by leading publications of the day, with many winning
coveted awards. From sports to shooters, platforms to puzzles, there is a plethora of titles to keep the
most discerning retro enthusiast happy.

We are delighted to bring to retail THEC64 mini and let both original fans of the machine, and all-new
generations of games players discover this amazing system, as well as maybe even have a go at
programming it for themselves!”, said Paul Andrews, Retro Games’ Managing Director.
