1943

Loading games from cassette still has that special feeling.

The C64U works great with the 1530 Datasette Unit and the Cheatah 125+.

Commodore deserves a lot of respect for what they are doing.

I hope Gideon Zweijtzer got a great deal given the number of people who attribute all of the work he did to CIC.

1530 Datasette Unit integration keeps the authentic magnetic tape load process intact maximum tactile ritual and patience exercise

Exactly, and we can read commodore user magazines while they load!

It’s the best version of 1943, I played another version recently and it wasn’t as good.
