Games That Weren't<p>Thanks to Adam Markey for highlighting a conversions call from Codemasters in April 1987, we've created a set of new entries.

ytm<p>This is an interface I built to connect a USB keyboard (wireless!) to a Commodore C16.</p><p>The OLED display is here for debug purposes - to show USB HID keystrokes and their mapping to the 8x8 matrix.</p><p>All that because I don't have the original keyboard (nor RF modulator - the one on the photo came from a C128).</p><p><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/c16" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>c16</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/commodore16" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>commodore16</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/8bit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>8bit</span></a></p>

The serial number on the C16 itself matches with the S/N on the box which is a neat little bonus. Thinking about sending off the registration card to QVC, I mean to Commodore HQ. 😆<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Commodore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Commodore</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RETROGAMING" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RETROGAMING</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Vintage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vintage</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/8Bit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>8Bit</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Retro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retro</span></a></p>
