Using the MCUME software running on a Raspberry Pi Pico, I designed and built this tiny emulated C64 to dangle around my neck while I wandered around the expo halls at PAX Aus 2022, and it turned out way better than I ever expected! I'm releasing all my schematics, PCB designs, and updates made to the MCUME code as open source, and links can be found below. If you like what I do and want to encourage more, I appreciate your support through likes and comments below. If you have the means, you could also support me on Patreon, as money helps me buy things to fix and build more projects - Bookmarks! 00:00:00 - Intro 00:02:10 - History 00:04:40 - Schematic Detail 00:10:36 - PCB design brief 00:12:51 - Construction 00:27:41 - Programming 00:34:43 - Final testing and assembly 00:42:13 - Closing remarks Any feedback is welcome, as always.

I am NOT an expert, I have genuinely NO idea what I'm doing, and mostly just glue things together and use a lot of Google-fu until stuff works. I've been tinkering with electronics since I was a kid, but have no formal training and will probably do things incorrectly. If you learn something from this, that's awesome, but trust me - I'm learning too! #raspberrypipico #commodore64
