I can recommend them as I did get one as a gadget.
I don’t have a HUGE use for it, but it’s really well done, feels really sturdy and somewhat premium. It was amusing to learn (and re-learn on rare use) more advanced features and programming it.
Sure, one can do that with emulator but physicality adds to the fun.
- rbanffy 3y agoThis is something I realized playing with the C64 Maxi. It’s a full sized C64 replica (mine is a VIC 20) and feels very real, even though there is a small ARM board inside it. Physicality is a huge part of the retro experience and a lot of it is the keyboard (which uses a TTY layout). I wish someone made modern keyboards with Amiga, Atari, Alto, Symbolics, Sun, or DEC LK layouts for use with emulated platforms.
