Commodore 64 DTV Version 2 (UK)

The Commodore 64 (also known as C64) has unparalleled heritage as a groundbreaking games and home-use personal computer. Since it's launch in 1982, the C64's role in the evolution of the modern games industry was incredibly powerful and the echoes of its influence still reverberate through the industry today.

Previously only available as the US NTSC version, now Version 2 of the C64 DTV is available in UK PAL edition.

The C64 "Direct to TV" (DTV) unit includes 30 classic games, each of the games is in full colour and can be personalised. In addition, each game has multiple levels, and some of the games have multiple "events". The games are not just replicas of the originals - they actually are the originals.

The new line-up of games for this UK edition includes California Games, Summer Games, Winter Games, Pitstop (I & II), Impossible Mission (I & II), Firelord, Speedball and many more. Unlike the original computer, you won't have to wait ages for the tape to load each game, they load up from memory almost instantly!

All this is built into a replica of the Competition Pro 5000 Joystick - which plugs directly into a TV for instant fun at home or away!

No computer or additional software is required, simply add batteries, plus into the TV and you're up and running.

For the techies, here are the details of the hardware:

• Custom 0.35 micron ASIC chip running at 1 Mhz
• 128K RAM, 2MB of ROM
