James you really should get a fastload cart for the Commodore 64. Not only does it load disk games faster, but all you have to push is the Commodore button & the Run/Stop button together and it’ll load the disk games.

To load a C64 game from tape: Hold down Shift and press Run/Stop, then start the tape. When the computer “finds” the desired program to load, press the Commodore logo key.

To go in the opposite directions with the cursor keys, you must hold down the Shift key and THEN press the desired arrow key. It’s a stupid design, I know, but it’s better than nothing – and there IS a Backspace key on the C64 keyboard. It’s on the far right end of the top row – in its Shifted state, it acts as an Insert key.

The joystick situation: The keyboard only acts erratically if the joystick is plugged into Port 1 – this is because this port shares its scanning routines (programs which detect whether or not a button is pressed) with the keyboard. This is why 9/10 C64 games were coded to use the joystick in Port 2. Strange logic, I know, but Port 1 was usually reserved for two-player games or for a C64 mouse. Additional: The Commodore 1311 joystick (the standard pack-in controller for the C64) is a piece of crap.

I couldn’t stand the european episodes of TMNT, they were so, SO boring. Even when they went to the UK (where I live) I was like “Bloody hell!! Sod off back home – your adventures are much better back there!!” 🙂

In reply to fallout1312.

I’m pretty sure James was born in 1980. He’s only 2 years older than myself so I remember growing up and watching and seeing a lot of the same stuff as him as a kid. You’re the same age as my younger brother, and he used to hang out with me and experience a lot of the same things I did, but he experienced it from a different point of view (I was the oldest of all my siblings, and he was the youngest) so it’s kinda cool sometimes to hear his perspective and how different they were from my perspective, even though they were the same exact events experienced side by side. By being the “oldest” or the “youngest” it totally changes the way we experienced the same events.

I never even knew the commodore 64 existed until James talked about it in some of his videos. I was born in 87 so I don’t know. I feel me and James and Mike are around the same age. Not sure how old you guys are. But dang…Ive discovered so many NEW things while watching your videos. I feel like I missed out on a lot. Well…Not much with the commodore it doesn’t seem. lol…but that’s not the only thing you guys have introduced me to. thanks for the video. At least you tried to get that thing running. controls for commodore games must have been a pain in the a$#.
