emulator app for the iPhone from Manomio had been rejected by Apple due
to SDK violations but now we're overjoyed to confirm that Manomio's
Commodore 64 iPhone Emulator App (which also plays ball with the iPod
Touch) has at long last gotten the official nod from Apple and is now
available via the App Store.
For those who are not versed with Manomio's Commodore 64 iPhone Emulator
App, and who thus are probably wondering what all the fuss is about, the
application promises an authentic C64 experience in truly paying
glorious homage to a computer that first saw the light of day in 1982
and which, it has to be said, pretty much nailed Apple's competing
device – not that Apple have been known to hold any grudges.
Supplied with five of the C64's most memorable gaming titles bundled in
with the app, taking in Dragons Den, Le Mans, Jupiter Lander, Artic
Shipwreck and the mighty Jet Attack, the Manomio Commodore 64 iPhone
Emulator naturally offers the Real McCoy in terms of authentic C64
sounds as well as portrait, landscape full screen retro gaming action
with Manomio confirming additional C64 gaming titles are set for future
release.
Quite possibly, indeed undoubtedly, one of the few iPhone/iPod Touch
apps that no true retro gamer can possibly be without, Manomio's
Commodore 64 iPhone Emulator App can be had now and, certainly from our
perspective, we're beside ourselves (and would also like to extend our
warm appreciation to Manomio who have not only shown a great deal of
patience during some particularly taxing times but who have come up with
an absolute gem that positively oozes class – and wholly reflects
the devotion and love they put into coding it and then getting it to
eventually see the light of day).
A must have purchase, period (along with HP's HP12C HP15C Calculator App).
