New "Commodore" products, should I carry them?

Well, get a sample of their all-in-one joystick first and see if it's really good enough for your standards...

My understanding is, that the games are remakes and the hardware is an eastern nes-on-a-chip, that's similar to the Atari and Namco joysticks. (it's a pity that they don't play the real games either)

I have no idea what they are selling.

A MP3 player, some USB memory sticks, and a joystick stuffed with C64 games.. But I suppose they will add stuff to sell.. Commodore toothpaste perhaps ?  :-D

There's been lots of C= branded stuff floating around ever since Tulip got the trademark.. Everything from multimedia headsets/speakers to CD-Rs..

I doubt most of the stuff is really worth carrying, perhaps if they release something that isn't available with some other name..

I understood wrong.. On the cbm hackers list, I read that it should be close to a real c-64, but with remade hardware..

This is rather interesting. Let's see what happens.
