My Founders edition Commodore 64 ultimate has finally arrived and it's actually quite pretty!

I had to try loading Counterweight Kate using my pi1541 tape interface. 🙂

I got the screen aspect ratio right later 🤭
So many things to try out 🤩

The Last Ninja (Reformation 5), by Matt Gray 11 track album

The great Matt Gray has just released his version of the soundtrack from the original Last Ninja. Rather than reuse his previous versions of these tracks, these are all new mixes, much heavier than I was expecting.

Does anyone know a good builder because this is going to have the f@!#ing roof off.
