One of the greatest action platform games of all-time, Bruce Lee, first released in 1984 by Datasoft for a variety of platforms, including the Apple II, Atari 8-bit, and Commodore 64 (C-64), has a new C-64-specific remix out.

The C64 Mini is just $54.44 after “clipping” the .55 coupon on Amazon. It’s well worth it for a mini version of the best selling single model of computer of all time, the Commodore 64. You get the mini console, which is designed to look like the original computer, and a joystick, as well as […]
