  Volhout said  P.s. once released it will be the ultimate game for picomite. And I plan to send a picomite pre programmed to the 8 bit guy.


Careful you don't double up with Peter, I think he has said the same.

It will be quite interesting to see if David Murray actually says anything, < $30 of PicoMiteVGA is comparable to a > $300 Commander x16. IMO his last video seemed a bit "desperate" as if they are flailing around to work out what the x16 is for now that they have invested so much in it.

The x16 has more RAM, a higher-res display with more colours and possibly better sound (?) the PicoMite has a faster CPU and a significantly more powerful BASIC.

It gets tricky at the lower-level, the x16 can run native code "properly" whilst the PicoMite has its funny CSUB thing that is black magic to most.

Best wishes,

Tom
