An overview of the C64 Forever Cloanto
The C64, released by Commodore in 1982, quickly became the industry standard for 8-bit home computers. It defeated rivals from Atari, Texas Instruments, Sinclair, Apple, and IBM in the home computer wars thanks to its affordable price, excellent graphics, excellent sound, and generous 64 KB of RAM.
The C64 revolutionized the video game business by selling over 30 million copies and introduced computers and programming to an entire generation. It gave rise to cultural phenomena like the demoscene and computer music. The C64 has seen a remarkable resurgence in recent years, resurfacing as a platform for retrocomputers.
Cloanto, creators of Commodore/Amiga software since the 1980s, has released C64 Forever, a ground-breaking C64 emulator, preservation, and support package, to let you explore and enjoy the glories of this special computer. A built-in database with over 5,000 C64 game listings and sophisticated support for the new RP9 format—dubbed the “MP3 of retrogaming”—complement the user-friendly UI of C64 Forever.
