TBH the C64's colors look a lot more saturated to me in real life than on emulators. I guess it depends on the monitor or TV set you use, but even the Commodore monitor had a knob to turn up saturation, so IMO it doesn't really make all that much sense to claim that "the C64 colors were these exact colors".
- LocalH 4y agoThe colors have been measured, and the mathematical formulas needed to calculate accurate colors are known. While there aren't a single set of "accurate" RGB mappings, there is a range of accurate RGB mappings that would cover all the hue (where appropriate) and saturation settings. Even the PAL blending is known and able to be simulated.
