Commodore 64 submitted to AppStore
posted by lyscarz * 99 comments
Manomio, together with Danish software house Kiloo Aps and Commodore Gaming, has developed a fully functional Commodore 64 for your iPhone.

We´re eager to get it in your hands; however, Apple’s approval team has unfortunately rejected our submission. As we know, there are already many titles that are very similar in nature to C64, so we´re working hard to convince Apple to reconsider.
We hope you´ll support us by blogging, tweeting and simply talking about C64 for iPhone, in the hope Apple will change their mind. We all know this would be a terrible waste if we couldn’t share!
Feel free to drop any questions or comments on this subject here, or take a look at our Commodore 64 website, www.c64iphone.com.

Woot!
wow nice app when would it release?
Regarding the interface:
You should move the tab-bar to the top so that players won’t hit it by accident when playing…
Absolutely wonderful!
The interface oozes nostalgia and deliciousness. ![]()
I heard that Apple rejected it though, such a shame.
But I hope you post instructions on this blog on how we can best make our voices heard!
I guess won’t start to work until he’s back?
PS. I hope there will be a “left handed” mode to switch the sides of the joystick.
Thanks for making such an amazing iPhone app. I was absolutely heart broken to see it was rejected. What can we do to help?

Thanks for all the feedback - blog, tweet, comment on articles - it all helps!
We do not have a LH mode, we absolutely will add the option ASAP - at the very least for full screen to start with.
This looks like a great emulator and it sucks that Apple won’t accept it. If Apple will not allow this, I would be happy to host this in my Cydia community source. The Cydia community has over 3 million users now, which is about 10% of the total iPhone community. If you were going to charge for it, you still can via the Cydia Store which works much like App store. If you are interested drop me an email.

This sucks cant believe apple rejected this sweet app
I actually had a c64 and when i saw ur screenshots i was automatically looking for the store link
Keep trying guys it would be criminal if this wasnt released to the general public
one unhappy old retro gamer here :(
HI, wonderful!!
Make it for Android! Please! Please! PLease! Please!!!

As a last resort you could release the source code.
It would allow others, who have the iPhone sdk, to compile and run the app.
But is not possible make for Android?
Your app is similar to other emulated games, but the KEY difference is that they only run one game. What you will have to do is submit each C64 game, or app with an emulator that is hard coded to only run that app/game.
Otherwise it’ll be just used to bypass the apple store.
You could submit each C64 title to AppStore, each bundled with an ‘emulator’. Apple’s politics on this sucks. This is also why we don’t have any Java or Flash on iPhone.
Thanks again to all the feedback - I heard there is a native SDK for Android, so it’s a very interesting proposition!
Yes.. there is a SDK for Android..
Android is based on Java! ![]()
So is this written from the Frodo or Vice sourced? Or did you write an entirely new emulator from scratch?
Look at this

this is a precedent…
Hi, marvelous app! Do you plan to release it for the HTC Magic (android) as well? I would be the first to buy it… Great job!!!

Nice work as far as I can see - although I am not an iPhone-Fan. Hope Apple will reconsider the rejection.
Thomas
Concratulations to your great job!!!
I’m really looking forward to this app!!!
Is there also an Fruity Frank for C64 as far as I remember it very well from the CPC 464?
greetings from germany, informix
perfect idea!!!
let’s convince Apple to release this great app! 10/10
bye

You should do what others did with their emulators. Not have it install any programs/plugins as forbidden, but include those.
Maybe you can even figure out a deal with Apple so that you can add games by in game buys.
All you have to do then let customers vote for app they like to see and license those. You even make more money that way as you get a piece for each game installed ![]()
I was so thrilled to know someone was developing something this cool for the iPhone.
Not sure if it will be of any help, but I also believe Apple should reconsider the rejection.
C64 Now for my iPhone!
I hope that Apple reconsider. This is a great app.

I think the only way you could get apple to approve this is to include games that you have rights to distribute, that would mean writing to each of the publishers for permission. In some cases this would be impossible.
Although as bigboss says, it would be much welcomed on Cydia
Any chance we’ll see this in Cydia due to the rejection? I’m still very excited for the title!
Oh that looks very beautiful to play games like in the good old times
i hope apple would jump over the wall and will accept this emulation.
i hope in steve jobs cause he loves his users and his user would love him for that more than now ![]()
mit freundlichem gruss Florian (from germany)
Thanks again to you all for the continued support! We are obtaining rights to the games (and the ones we submitted were all from Commodore)
We’re also releasing two First Star titles and more in the works.
Cheers,
Stuart
How bout making it for the Pre. The Pre community would love it and welcome it!
Shame on Apple for rejecting this great app!
Great news Please send it my way! Any news when Apple will allow it?
Apple, waked up and releases this fabulous application!
*** DOES WANT! ***
Although I can understand from a technical standpoint why it’s dangerous for an app to be able to execute code through an emulated OS, I hope that they realize what’s been done here and give the developer a fast-track to getting this AMAZING application up for sale ASAP!
I Want This App Sooooooo Much I grew up with the C64
and this Looks Fantastic I Have To have This Please Tell Apple
to Wake Up to themselves and Release This Now I Want it NOW!!!
News on release??????
The developer is just being greedy. First he uses someone elses hardwork
by porting the frodo version of this emulator
then rather than posting this app on cydia like most others in the emulation
community do, he greedily snaps up the c64 liscence and tries
to submit an app that would charge a buch for each game!
I think apple did the right thing and the previous posters are obviously
oblivious to the fact that you are using someone elses
source code for profit
I used to play the games Alice in Wonderland and Gramma’s House all the time. I wish I had a way to play them now. Anyone else remember the Commodore 64?Tower Defence

Any news on this app being released? A must have app for us retro fans. Did you summit a newer version for apple and if so, whats the status?
I really hope that Apple will approve this app soon so I can play my c64 favorites again, this time on my iPhone! This app would be a good way to keep the c64 alive ![]()
Get to know copulate information. It’s an extraordinary article thanks for intercourse. I was undiagnosed to this thing. Expectation to get much from you superficial looking towards for your incoming article.
C64 title to AppStore, each bundled with an ‘emulator’. Apple’s politics on this sucks. This is also why we don’t have any Java or Flash on iPhone.

Games are a part of our lives now, there is no getting rid of them!
Now that apps can be created and placed on the Iphone, we are never going to lose them. Holidays are going down, gaming is going up!
We all know this would be a terrible waste if we couldn’t share.Yep I agreed with it.

I remember seeing the VIC 20 and the C64 in computer stores when I was a boy. I remember they had awesome built-in sprites for fast game play.
Anyway, my first answer would have been eBay (just looking now there are over 450 C64s and C64 related software, accessories etc. But you said not eBay. Depending where you are located you may be able to pick one up at a car boot sale or garage sale.

The C64 was designed to work with a standard TV. It uses an RF cable which carries the audio and video. You just need to tune the TV into the correct signal - just like tuning it in for your regular tv channels.

Yeah it is a shame, and we do need to make sure that Apple can hear exactly waht it is the public want, I dont think they will be able to go much further when the G phone comes out, unless they take ideas from existing clients.
I’m not sure you’re going to find a whole machine which has actually been refurbished. I am sure you will find some which the current owner/seller claims is still working. Take a look at the oldsoftware link below - they have some refurbished C64 motherboards. That in combination with a C64 case (or a broken but complete C64) would get you close.

Man I loved the commodore 64. I spent so many hours on one growing up. It was my first computer. I looked on ebay recently to see if anyone was selling one. There is quite a few for sale. Maybe I’ll buy one one day. Fake tattoos
C64 for iPhone will allow you to do just that with a variety of games that were released for the Commodore 64 computer system! This computer system, almost single handed, established the desktop computer as a legitimate gaming system.

Hello everyone!
I was impressed with how smoothly the controls seemed to work. It is even possible to play the game in “full-screen” mode. You do this by tilting your device on its side…Facebook Layouts
Hello guys!
the game of your choice you will be taken directly to the emulator screen. From here you have two sets of controls. The first one is a collection of keyboard strokes that i Phone App started. The second control set is a joystick.Tina
ately rejected our submission.

I jailbroke my ipod 2g and I can’t seem to update my regular app store apps through the appstore without having to delete the app, then reinstall it. It’s annoying because when I update the app, all my data on it is wiped out.

It seems like Christmas just might come early this year, as our good friends at Manomio have just recently submitted version 1.2 of the C64 for Apples approval process.Bridges To Recovery
Great news about Version 1.2 coming out. How long is approval taking these days?
Thanks,
