@commodoreofficial.bsky.social My latest find to add to my collection and next to my #c64 Starlight. Green Line 996R Electronic Calculator with manual. Prob needs rechargeable battery replacing so not sure it’s worth registering the guarantee.

Brilliant idea and love it but sadly too spicy price for me at checkout…

Desert Island Tapes What’s the single game you’d play if stranded on a desert island? Bruce Lee for me. Amazing gameplay plus novel multiplayer if someone else gets washed up! #commodore #c64 #retrogaming #desertisland

Nice! The Master System controller is as my next little modelling project after these recent ones. Just downloaded a few reference images this evening as preparation.

Nothing beats the golden era of big box gaming. Looking back at Frontier: Elite II. Floppy disks, dense manuals, and that massive fold-out star map. A brilliant reminder of why physical media and tactile gaming experiences still matter. 🚀 #Amiga #RetroGaming #Elite #PhysicalMedia #SciFiGaming

I do get it and understand the problem it’s trying to address. Just not sure the execution of the tech is going to be a good way to solve the problem plus what I think is an eye watering price. I’d rather have a C64 handheld like my design… 😂

Nice one! Just trying to get back to a bit of running myself after twisting something in my knee a while back and seems to take longer and longer to heal now I'm 50+. Never really enjoyed running up until recently as well.

Remember when you felt like a true deity with Populous? The precursor for all RTS and god games started on the #Amiga. If you got angry you didn't need to invade countries #irl but just zap your enemies with an earthquake or volcano if you had enough followers... #retrogaming #bullfrog

Found a great #C64 copy of The Bard’s Tale, complete with hand-drawn dungeon maps from the previous owner. Graph paper was a staple for us in the #80s. If you didn't have it... you didn't survive. #Commodore64 #RetroGaming #BardsTale #RetroComputing #GenX

I’ve finally opened my Etsy shop, and yes, it’s full of the sort of minimalist sci-fi/retro poster art I’d happily put on my own walls. 20% off opening deal, plus free UK postage. Bold typography, retro and niche references. 7bitretropixels.etsy.com #art #Etsy #GeekArt #WallDecor

Thanks @commodoreofficial.bsky.social! Received my gold (plated) C64U 'dog tag' necklace today from my Commodore Coins, whilst awaiting my Starlight. Can't wait to hang this round my neck and get on the dancefloor with an open necked shirt and splash of Old Spice! #c64 #commodore #c64u

Possibly the final #retro poster of 2025... #synthwave #80s #digitalart #affinity #canva
A vertical synthwave-style poster featuring the words 'DIGITAL GRID' in large, metallic chrome lettering at the top. A bright yellow and orange segmented sun sits in the center against a deep purple gradient background. Below, a neon blue and purple perspective grid stretches into the distance, overlaid with the text 'QUANTUM DREAMS' in a glowing neon cyan outline font.
