3D Printed Shell
Built to last
Replica C64 w/ Floppy Disk Drive
The Replica C64 rebuilds the experience of playing games on a classic Commodore 64-style computer with precision 3D-printed shell work, custom controls, a Raspberry Pi-based system, and built-in NFC support for floppy-style loading. It is designed for the ritual of using a real retro computer: power it on, arrive at the C64 environment, choose software, and load it through a hands-on workflow instead of a generic instant-launch menu. Drive-style LEDs, system feedback, and browser-based management make the build feel like a complete retro setup while keeping it modern and maintainable.

The Real C64 Experience, Replicated.
All-in-1 replica of the Commodore 64 experience: 100% faithful to the look, feel, and ritual of operating a C64 and built to do more.
Fully Customizable
Easy to install
Authentic Design
Down to detail
1:1 Full Scale Build
Classic breadbin presence in a high-resolution printed shell.
Fully Operational
Turn it on, insert a floppy, and LOAD"*",8,1 the way you remember.
Joystick Compatible
Fully compatible with original joysticks and controllers.
LED & Drive Feedback
Disk head seek sounds, LEDs, and system feedback bring the build to life.
Load from NFC 5.25" Floppies
The supplied 5.25" floppy disk drive reads NFC tags embedded in our replica floppy disks to attach and detatch disk images from the emulated C64.
In practice it works exactly like a real 1541 Commodore floppy disk drive- insert your floppy, issue the BASIC load command, and enjoy accurate load timing, seek sounds, and LED activity.
Or insert an NFC cartridge
The built in cartridge port reads NFC tags from our replica cartridges to attach and detach cartidge images from the emulated C64.
Insert one before powering on for a fully faithful instant boot into your favorite game or cartridge based software.

Two upgrade paths. Choose the single-board computer that fits how you use your C64 experience.
Raspberry Pi Zero 2W
Budget Option- Uses a custom fork of the VICE emulator with non-cycle accurate timing
- Lower cost, lower power consumption
- Runs the vast majority of classic software, with best results on standard games, applications, and cartridges
Starting at $265
Select Raspberry Pi Zero 2WRaspberry Pi 5
Performance Option- Runs the standard fully cycle accurate version of VICE
- Can handle video post processing effects like CRT and NTSC composite filters for a more retro accurate asthetic
- Runs extremely timing-sensitive demoscene software, copy-protected originals, exotic fast loaders, and software relying on exact VIC-II, SID, and 1541 timing behavior
- Can emulate a dual SID setup for stereo sound in supported software
Starting at $415
Select Raspberry Pi 5Both options include the same replica build quality, floppy-style loading support, and C64-focused experience.
