The Commodore 64 hardware simulator: break chips and pins, see the results
A new Commodore 64 hardware simulator lets users experiment with virtual components, including intentionally damaging chips and pins to observe how the system reacts. The tool replicates the original machine’s circuitry, providing real‑time feedback on failures and performance. Developers and hobbyists can use it to study fault tolerance, troubleshoot code, and explore the classic computer without physical hardware.
