Hi.

Is there any list of known bugs of The C64 Micro computer firmware?

I have noticed some quirks in some build-in games:

One of them is Bear Bovver: When I blast a bomb, sound of blast keeps rumbling continously in background affter it. See this Clip [Volume level of file is now increased] (I muted music... It should help to hear what I mean)
In some games (ex. Boulder Dash), there is need to do some realy fast moves with joystic, but character will not always react all of them and move (there is no sound, no move). This is not good in fast action games, where any move is needed to keep character live, like not to get that big rock to head. See this Clip

What I have tested, but no any changes:

Several Firmware updates and factory resets.
Another The C64 Micro Switch Joystick

Another TV

Is there bug on current firmware, or is my The C64 Micro computer busted?

I think it's the game, not The C64. Are other games fine (I've never played Bear Bovver)?

francec77: Scusate se son un pò ignorante ma quando cerco di cambiare carosello cliccando fireA e botton4 il mini entra in modalità classica con schermata blu in basic... non si vedono le schermate per scegliere i caroselli ma posso solo vedere le cartelle Jul 28, 2024 4:10:33 GMT

alucard2: thank you for your reply.
I don't understand why PCUAE manager has extra disk if you can't change the disk via the carousel. Jul 5, 2024 11:50:12 GMT
