Go C64 Retro On The iPhone
Manomio’s C64 emulator for the iPhone / iPod Touch has finally been approved by Apple and is available in the App store at $4.99.
As a long time C64 fan from back in the day, I’m über excited about this and looking forward to some old school gaming on the move.
It appears that Manomio will be selling game packs which can be purchased separately (besides the few that ship with the emulator) but I’m wondering if they will ever make some provision to upload your own?
I’ve got drawers full of old C64 games and disks, most of which have already been transferred to the PC (or just downloaded form emulator sites considering I have the originals) that it would be cool to have on the iPhone. Also, I’m sure that as diligent as Manomio may be, they’re be many titles that they just can’t find the original publisher for and that the community could upload.
We’ll have to wait and see what they’re plans are I guess.

I miss my old Commodore 64. At one time, I actually had two whole systems, one at home and one at college. Until I got my first Mac in 91, I used my C64 to type all of my research papers.
I miss my Datasette .. LOL
i still have a working C128 in my attic. I'm looking forward to "load ,8,1" my iphone
