Commodore 64 (C64) Mini Is a Huge Flop With Huge Nostalgia
29This wasn't the first retro Commodore 64 console, and I doubt it will be the last, but this one was probably the best attempt we're likely to see. And sadly, it falls a little bit short, especially when you're spending this amount of money on it (originally $80, now $37). People often say that you could buy a Raspberry Pi emulator box for a lot less cash, but that's somewhat missing the point. Nintendo made an effort to build a machine that tickled our nostalgia tentacles while also being easy to use. The C64 Mini does not meet that standard, and so it's actually probably preferable to invest in a RetroPie kit, even if it is ethically dubious. There isn't enough here for nostalgic types, nor a decently packaged experience sufficient for casual types who want to play something different.
