Been a bit skeptical of Commodore USA's promise to
bring back the venerable
Commodore 64 with some up-to-date PC specs? We can't blame you, but the company is now finally working to change some minds, and has released some actual pictures of a what certainly appears to be a genuine prototype. Of course, the company notes that the prototype doesn't have the same plastic, color or finish that the production version will have, but it is unmistakably a Commodore 64, and that should put a smile on the face of anyone over 30. What's more, it seems that the company has also somehow managed to team up with Disney, and it will be promoting the new C64s with an ad included with every copy of
Tron: Legacy. Still no word of an actual release date, unfortunately, but Commodore USA will apparently be launching a new website tomorrow to coincide with the DVD and Blu-ray release, so hopefully it will have a few more details to share then.
