But will it come packaged with Auf Weidershen Monty, Game Over, Zynaps and Exolon? Oh, and the Batman and Garfield games which were sideways scrolling adventures would also be appreciated.
Long live Rafael Cecco!
Those of you under 30 years old will have no idea what I'm talking about.

Agreed - but Monty On The Run had the better music
I still remember the hours of fun my comodore 64 gave me as a kid, it eventually got replaced with an amiga 600! which got replaced by a playstation and a 350mhz pentium 2 machine.
Scary how fast it has moved on actually.
Jeesh! There's a blast from the past! All that time spent playing 4th and Inches and ATV....
Let's not forget the genius that is David Whittaker. I've recently found a load of old Amiga Mod files (ahem) and they still sound as good today as they did back then. Who'd have thought 20+ years later I'd still be listening to the same old music.....
Xenon had the best music. And I mean the tape that shipped with the Commodore and speccy games, not the music to the (frankly crap) remake they did on the amiga.

Hover Bovver, Gunship and Beachhead!!
The nostalgia isn't enough to make me want to buy a 'new' one though. It seems a trifle pointless, unless I'm missing something obvious..
I've still got the original one. Why would I want a new one?
If I could have any retro 8/16 bit computer it would not be the C64.
