On this day in 1985, 19th September 1985, Ghosts ’n Goblins started showing up in US arcades. The following year Chris Butler programmed one of the best ports to the Commodore 64! Mark Cooksey composed the SID music. Who else loved playing this on their C64?

1942 (Commodore 64) Elite Systems’ 1986 conversion of Capcom’s 1984 arcade shooter. Fly a Lockheed P-38 Lightning, shooting Japanese planes. Zzap!64 magazine rated it 87% "...gives you the feeling that you've wisely spent that last two quid for a change! " Did you enjoy playing 1942?

What’s the best Ocean Software game released on the Commodore 64? (Without saying Wizball.) Did you notice the tape says WIZZBALL? Box and in-game title are Wizball — Ocean printed the extra Z on a lot of original cassettes.

Bugs explode in four directions at once! Greenrunner (2006) is a frantic C64 homebrew by Aleksi Eeben (CNCD) — Gridrunner meets Centipede. SID music + Elaine Walker speech. Twoflower compared it to I-Ball (I-Ball is much less stressful lol!) Played it?

Anybody else remember this? When you flipped it to GAME, which channel did you go to? 3 or 4?

The Young Ones (1985) on the Commodore 64 is one of those 1980s licensed games that feels almost too on-brand: chaotic, half-brilliant, and slightly broken. It is an official tie-in to the BBC TV show. Did you watch the TV Show? Who was your favourite character? ME: Rick, the People’s Poet

Unboxing a rare Commodore 64 item that most collectors talk about more than they own. In the late 1980s Commodore released a handful of official add-ons that never reached the same numbers as the Commodore 64 itself. This is one of them. Comment what you think is in the box before I open it.

Not ideal for sure.

Same game, completely different game. Here’s Action Biker on the ZX Spectrum for comparison with the C64 version I posted. Spectrum fans — this one’s for you. Thinking of doing these side-by-side comparisons often. If you want me to.

This was the first C64 game I played that had a Rob Hubbard SID tune, I was impressed. But when I first heard Sanxion's loading screen, that Rob Hubbard tune blew my mind! Any Rob Hubbard fans out there?

Action Biker (Mastertronic, 1985) — Commodore 64. Who else loved this game? A KP Skips tie-in starring Clumsy Colin. Rob Hubbard did the SID tune. Zzap!64 magazine rated it 83% "Overall this is an amusing game" What did you think of it? Loved it/Hated it? ME: Love! (Corrected post)

Messed up sorry I had a long post (used to doing long form posts) not realizing Bsky limits to 300 characters so I got ai to condense and didn't realize it placed incorrect info and changed the whole description. It Came out less than 300 character so I went yep, big mistake. Now corrected. Sorry.

Leonard Nimoy, 1980s selling Commodore 64 software? In 1984 HesWare hired Spock (Nimoy) as spokesman for Commodore 64 software. At New York’s Intrepid Museum he unveiled titles for a hands-on exhibit. Did you know leonard Nimoy owned a Commodore 64 at home? Legendary RIP.

Bad Influence, CITV, early 90s. Violet Berlin explains X-Copy on the Amiga 600 — the “backup” tool every Amiga kid actually used to copy games. Officially legal backups. Unofficially…😉

You are watching a banned Commodore 64 TV commercial. Featuring Maureen the circus elephant… in boxing gloves. You probably don’t have to guess why it got pulled off the air.
