Does anyone knows if there is a save/freeze function on this thing so you can save where you are in a game?

No - I'm pretty sure there isn't.

I half remember one of the red buttons acted as a pause button(?) and I think you can map certain keys to these(?). I only used mine once or twice - it played like a brick and the crappy colour scheme made me want to puke!

YAY! Nothing like a real C64 to play on - emulators just don't feel the same. Get yer ass on Ebay NOW, sonny!

Worth noting though, that a c64 dtv mk2 is in the pipeline and I *THINK* they are going to add a flash card slot of some description (making the device a whole lot more useful and giving infinite possibilities re games and savestates).

It'll probably still be shit to play, but I'll buy it 'cos I'm just a sucker... :P

I have noticed that some guys is modding thire c64dtv's, so they can connect diskrive, and stuff to it ;)

Too bad i'm not THAT technical :shock:

I am looking for the old c64, the oldest there is ;)
I noticed that the filter was different on newer ones when my dad came home with a new and my tunes wasn't sounding the same ;/ CRAP!

I will get me one of these though, to be able to play on the c64 emulator ;)

I like the BOSS joysticks better, though ;)

It's not that it was newer, every SID-chip was a little different.

I really likes the Suzo Arcade joysticks, the only joystick i DIDN'T break !
