Turn Raspberry Pi 400 into a legal C64 emulator
The compact all-in-one enclosure of Raspberry Pi 400 puts many people to mind of classic computers. These 8-bit machines hold a place close to our heart, and few as much as the classic Commodore 64. Emulating the C64 properly has been a challenge because the memory ROMs are copyrighted. However, KG has a solution that uses Raspberry Pi 400 and legal ROMs. Rediscover classic computing with this brilliant tutorial.
