It&#8217;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 a bunch of built-in games. No worries, though, as with a firmware update you can add additional features (and more games!) and easily add your own games. It&#8217;s well worth it at that price.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8969\" style=\"width: 1290px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2T0Ls3k\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8969\" data-src=\"https:\/\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/71SlkscWvzL._AC_.jpg\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8969 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"The 64 Mini has an easy-to-use interface to the games.
