The Commodore 64 was discontinued in 1994 and since then it's been impossible to find a 100% new "real" (non-emulation) replacement. Thanks to new Keycaps, the U64, & the sponsorship of http://PCBWay.com [great PCBs from $5] let's try to build the world's first brand new C64 / C64C by experimenting with the new EVO64 motherboard, and the Ultimate 64, as well as the new keycaps from a recent Indiegogo Crowdfunding campaign, and a host of other modern replacements for the 6510 / 6502 CPU, PSU, PLA, CIA, SID chips, VIC-II chip, and more! 📠 Comment by Fax: +1 747 PERIFAX (7374329) _ignore transmission errors; our vintage machine doesn't have ECM_ 💬 Why comments may be off: http://retrorecip.es/comments *SUPPORT US FOR EXCLUSIVE PERKS:* 🙏 Become a Patreon: http://patreon.com/perifractic 📺 YT Channel Memberships: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6gARF3ICgaLfs3o2znuqXA/join ❤️‍🔥 Click _Thanks_ under the vid 🎧 Get the music: http://retrorecip.es/music 🔗 My website: http://retrorecip.es *BUILD YOUR 99% or 100% NEW C64** _NEW MOTHERBOARDS:_ • EVO 64 (~$285): https://evo64.com | https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeRXUnYWci0_WzjrHfZC3tVW1JfAfPmlBmINpZ9ePTsUdfVbw/viewform • Ultimate 64 Elite (~$270): https://ultimate64.com/Ultimate-64-Elite | https://ebay.us/XukR3B • C64 Reloaded MkII (~$150): https://ebay.us/16u197 | https://icomp.de/shop-icomp/de/shop/product/c64-reloaded-mk2.html • THEC64 (~$320): 🇺🇲https://amzn.to/2EHhe3n | 🇬🇧https://amzn.to/36CVrU8 _NEW CASES:_ • C64C Case (~$65): https://icomp.de/shop-icomp/en/shop/product/c64c-case.html • Lego Breadbin Case ($ varies): https://www.perifractic.com/retrogaming/takeout-shop/ _NEW KEYBOARD BASE:_ • Mechboard 64 (~$375): https://ebay.us/QAoukC | https://www.breadbox64.com/blog/the-mechboard64/ _NEW KEYCAPS:_ • C64 Keycaps (~$45): https://www.cbmstuff.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=59_83 | https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/keycaps-for-your-commodore-computer#/ • Lego Keycaps (sold out at Bricksanity sorry): https://www.perifractic.com/retrogaming/takeout-shop/ _NEW CHIPS:_ • J-CIA: https://1nt3r.net/j-cia/ | Aug-2022 videos: https://1nt3r.net/j-cia/vids.php • CPU (~$35): https://monotech.fwscart.com/MOS_CPU_Replacer_(65108501)/p6083514_21591072.aspx • VIC-II Kawari: http://accentual.com/vicii-kawari/ • PLAnkton (~$25): https://ebay.us/AVXGfx | https://retro8bitshop.com/product/plankton/ • SID (~$30 x 2): https://ebay.us/cqrR9J _PERIPHERALS:_ • SD2IEC (~$60): https://www.thefuturewas8bit.com/tag/product/list/tagId/5/ • PSUs (~$49): https://ebay.us/37xLKW • Wi-Fi adapter: https://amzn.to/3QFEr70 • Joystick: https://uni-joy.com/ • Wireless Gamepad: https://retro8bitshop.com/product/new-gamepad-c64-style-wireless/ _ACCESSORIES:_ • Keyboard risers: https://icomp.de/shop-icomp/en/shop/product/c64c-key-mount-kit.html | https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1561772 • My modded longboard keyboard risers: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1l1nSkWVznjgtiJy8KTGSV-sCQpWd8qoh • C64C Blue LED w/ long cable: https://www.retroleum.co.uk/c64-cables • Keyman 64: http://henning-liebenau.de/keyman64/ • Generic USB LED Strip: https://ebay.us/pK9XDJ • Ultimate64 LED Strip: https://corei64.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=250 • VIC-II² PAL/NTSC Switch: https://www.perifractic.com/retrogaming/takeout-shop/ • 🛠 _Get the tools I use:_ 🇺🇸https://amzn.to/3eT3SzD | 🇬🇧http://amzn.to/30y05lg *SAUCES & CHEERS:* • The EVO64 Team • Lau Brix: http://breadbox64.com • @GAMECLOSET • Everyone else featured and who helped • Wikipedia / Wikimedia Commons • The Internet Archive • Gardenside Prods., Clue Detectives & Paradise Radio • Special thanks to Ladyfractic & the Puppyfractics! • All other media featured is marked as public domain on Google Images or used with written permission or shown under fair use law. *MENU:* 0:00 Intro 2:12 Parts tour 4:27 EVO 64 Tour 14:38 Keyboard Build 21:06 3D Print Risers & EVO Build 25:01 EVO 64 Playtest & Opinion 27:35 The Ultimate C64 29:16 Ultimate Build 30:54 Ultimate Playtest 33:25 Conclusion & supporter credits *SOME INGREDIENTS BY:* • http://MattGrandis.net - design of https://perifractic.com website • http://twitter.com/_GazMarshall - some graphics • http://PaulKitching3d.com - some 3D models © All original music & content Copyright & TM Retro Recipes™ LLC 1988-2023. *Some links may offer some peanuts to support this retrochannel but all opinions are 100% unbiased. #retro #retrogaming #retrocomputing #gaming
