awsome selecteion of games - i hope they release more

im so glad some one put out this marvel

anyone curious about c64 games should get this and see what a marvel it was from back in the - atari days

There's a few easter eggs you can do, and all of them can be done with an unhacked unit (although the unit can be hacked, and among other things a PS/2 keyboard port and standard CBM IEC serial bus can be added). You can find out about all this stuff here (http://jledger.proboards19.com/index.cgi?board=dtvhacking&action=display&thread=1104435234). In particular, there are a few smaller games, an NTSC demo entitled "Entropy" by the group "Electron", and a few pictures of the developers.

The hack is cool. Easy to do.
The keyboard makes getting to the easter eggs a bit easier.
