Looking at the channel, dude bought the Commodore IP and are releasing retro things with this IP for absurd amount of money. The C64 ultimate for the price on their site and the shit ass hardware is a fucking joke.

The C64 Ultimate is actually pretty legit, and the price isn’t too outrageous for the base model. It’s essentially combining a bunch of really quite polished community projects for the C64 together to create a finished product. The new owner of Commodore, Peri Fractic of Retro Recipes fame, is truly a super fan of retro computers, and has made content about them on his YouTube for a decade. However, he stubbornly continues to use AI despite some backlash. This new phone is massively overpriced, but I have no doubt anyone who buys one will receive it eventually.
