What does Tulip  think they can acheive by re-launching the C=64??

Who would buy it? Guess it would only be the relatively few nerds (like me :) but wouldn't they prefer the CommodoreOne?  I will!

I could understand if they where just using the name and peoples tendancy to be nostalgic, to market a new console or something like that, but their current plan sounds really to far fetched.

@JoannaK

It's not quite similar because many 8 bit games actually fit quite well too the mobile phones (thinking at how complex they are, simple graphics, sound etc..).

Even though they are pretty simple, most of the other products on celluar phones are also simple so they don't look so dated, as a C=64 game will do compared to an X-BOX game.

But it's also the only example I know of succesfull 8(16) bit revival.

And I could imagine your description of Tulip to be very precise..
