03.09.2022 - The Great Donkey Kong Junior Hoax - Nintendo on Commodore 64 - new Video from '8-Bit Show And Tell'
Robin loved Nintendo games for decades, ever since he first saw Donkey Kong in the arcade in the early 1980s. Years before the NES, he wanted to play Mario and Donkey Kong games at home, and that was possible for some thanks to Atarisoft on home computers and Coleco for video game consoles. However, one favourite game wasn't available for his Commodore 64: Donkey Kong Junior. Or was it? One day a friend gave him a copied disk that promised to fulfill his dream, but instead it robbed him of 8-bit bliss for hours, days, maybe even years due to a cruel, mysterious, and suspicious password protection scheme. Join him as he use his Super Snapshot machine language monitor to get to the bottom of this mystery.

29.08.2022 - Long lost C64 title 'Exorcist' preserved and available for download
The GTW64 stuff was very surprised when they were contacted in late May 2022 to see if they knew anything about a C64 conversion of Exorcist, a game that was released by Commodore on the C16/Plus/4 in 1984, programmed by Greg Duddle under the Mr. Micro label. Until now there didn’t seem to be any evidence in magazines that a C64 version was in the planning or offering, but yet a C64 version saw a very low number release in Spain. It has now only just been fully preserved after a copy finally surfaced. The game is a variant of Pacman but more complex and can now be downloaded. It also comes with a newly found and early David Whittaker tune for the next HVSC update.

27.08.2022 - Exploring 1982's Commodore MAX Machine - new Video from '8-Bit Show And Tell'
In 1982 Commodore launched a system featuring a 6510 CPU, a VIC-II video chip, and a SID sound chip, and it wasn't a Commodore 64. It was the Commodore MAX, a low-end computer / games system intended to compete with the Atari VCS and Intellivision. While it only officially released in Japan, Commodore was very near to releasing it in the USA, Japan, and Germany too. Join Robin as we look at this obscure system, and compare it to its much more famous (and capable) big brother the Commodore 64.

...from time to time, some thoughts need to get out...
Farewell Patrick!
Author: Zeldin - written on 31.12.2014

Farewell Patrick!Axis/Cascade is no more. We are all still shaken by the unexpected death of our friend and group mate Patrick aka Axis/Cascade. We wanted to express our sorrow, so I coded a little intro, which you can find in the C64 demo section of this page. The following text is a rough excerpt taken from the scroller:

Dear Patrick, may this be the condolence from the the group that was co-founded by you long time ago. We want to give you our last salute. I (Zeldin) know how much you were breathing the spirit of the scene. That's why I thought a goodbye demo would have made you happy. You and me exchanged lots of mails about how much we both enjoyed the good ol' days and of course: how much we miss them... It was this tie that emotionally connected us for over 15 years. Thanks for all your help in supporting the group and your indefatigable endeavour in spreading our name. Your tattoos were legendary! Thanks for your work on fb and youtube. Your channels were appreciated by a lot of people. Thanks for being such a good chap. You'll be sorely missed!!!

Mach's gut, Patrick... den Adler im Herzen, sge4ever!
