SD2IEC cableless now in black!

SD2IEC cableless (with Atmega 1284, upgradable)

Our SD2IEC cableless is back in black! This Protovision version connects directly to the serial and cassette ports – no extra power cable or serial cable needed. The pass-through serial port lets you daisy-chain additional drives, and the Atmega 1284 keeps the unit future-proof with software updates.

Just a heads-up: compared to the 1541 Ultimate, the SD2IEC is slightly less compatible with multiload programs since it doesn’t include full drive emulation.

WiC64 is back!

01.09.2026

The WiC64 – the parallel WLAN interface for Commodore computers with user port connection – is back in stock. Unlike classic modems, it operates with 8 data lines, 2 handshake lines, and one control line, speeding up data transfer by a factor of 20: load 202 blocks / 50kb from the internet in just 2.5 seconds via HTTP:// or TCP! The complete hardware and software is open source, and it ships with the new 2024 firmware.

Lemmings Reloaded — a fresh spin on a C64 classic!

New in our shop: OVP64 Over Voltage Protector

24.07.2026

The OVP64 Over Voltage Protector is now available at Protovision, sporting a brand new compact inline design. It uses ultra-fast MOSFET technology to continuously monitor the power supply between your PSU and your C64, instantly cutting the connection the moment a voltage spike is detected. Original Commodore 64 power supplies are notorious for failing with age and pushing voltages beyond the safe 5.40V threshold – potentially causing irreparable damage to sensitive ICs. A red warning LED lets you know when the OVP64 has stepped in to protect your machine.

Mini Tapuino – Datasette Emulator Now Available

23.07.2026

New in our shop: the Mini Tapuino, a compact hardware-level Datasette emulator for the Commodore 64. It plugs straight into the tape port and lets you load and save TAP files directly from a microSD card (not included). The built-in LCD display peeks over the top of your C64 for easy reading, and a passthrough port keeps your original Datasette connected if needed. It arrives fully assembled and tested, ready to go.

Tapecart microSD Card Reader – New in Our Shop

22.07.2026

Housed in a durable injection-molded case, it loads .TCRT and .PRG files at ultra-high speeds with no extra hardware needed. Just plug it into the cassette port and go. Skip fumbling with tiny screens or physical buttons – navigate your entire library effortlessly using the intuitive built-in on-screen browser.

BMC64 Interface & 64 Doctor – finally back in stock!

21.07.2026

Both hardware products are again available at our shop: The BMC64 Raspberry Pi Interface with GPIO cable lets you reuse your original C64 keyboard, joysticks, and case (breadbin or slimline) with the modern BMC64 emulator software. At the same time, the 64 Doctor by Trilogic is back in stock – the ultimate diagnostic module for comprehensive fault finding on the Commodore 64, testing video chips, CIA chips, the 6581 sound chip, keyboard, joystick port, and more.

Revive your old hardware with BMC64 or test your C64 with the 64 Doctor – both are available again right now!

20.07.2026

The popular 4 Player Adapter is back and available again! Professionally manufactured by individual Computers, this interface adds two extra joystick ports to your C64 or C128 via the User Port – enabling up to four players to game together with real joysticks on one computer.

You can build it yourself using our building instructions, or simply use it ready-to-play. If you want to adapt or create a game for the 4 Player Interface, our source code example shows how easy it is to implement.

ARMSID & ARM2SID are back!

01.07.2026

Steel Ranger 2 is coming – in Gold!

14.04.2026

We are thrilled to announce that the highly anticipated sequel to Lasse Öörni’s masterpiece, Steel Ranger, has been selected as our 2026 Gold Cartridge release.

Gear up with your second-generation armor suit and return to the ruins of a barren Earth to combat a lethal new threat. This time, your tactical options have expanded; you’ll need to master both your high-powered rifle and a deadly new blade to survive the mechanical onslaught.

Steel Ranger 2 pushes the Commodore 64 to its absolute limits with smooth 8-way scrolling, atmospheric background graphics, and the deep, story-driven gameplay that Lasse (Covert Bitops) is world-renowned for.
