Dear Patreons, in case you missed it or couldn't join us, here's the fully uploaded Commodore 64 repair attempt from a few days ago (with the stream dropouts cut out & shoved through YouTube's letterbox 🤦‍♂️). Watch in the main YouTube site/app to follow the comments including brainstorming from Jan Beta and GadgetUK! I was blown away by how much teamwork there was from this community. At one point we had 57 people helping me!

This video was/is this week's project, but I'm still tinkering and filming with more to come on it! In the meantime, do let me know if you have any input into this project.

On another note, there's been a lot of interest recently in Raspberry Pi C64 projects, THEC64 Mini, and such like. I'm working on a new video involving an Apple IIe, a Raspberry Pi and a Nintendo Wii. The Commodore 64 will make an appearance too. Curious...! It's not something you've seen before, but you will indeed see it soon, and before anyone else! :)

Until next time, thank you again for your ongoing support (I gave you all a shoutout in the video), and for those who said they wanted longer videos, I hope the above 3 hour marathon will suffice!

Your friend in retro,
Chris aka Perifractic
