Product Details
Add dedicated tactile utility buttons to the side ofyour Commodore 64 Ultimateand make your system easier and more enjoyable to use. Nomore remembering keyboard presses or multi‑press sequences on the power switch— this module gives you instant, satisfying access to Menu, Reset, and Specialfunctions with real micro‑switch buttons you can see and feel. The Specialbutton supports cartridge images that originally included a physical button,including classic “freezer” cartridges such as Super Snapshot and ActionReplay.
A micro‑SD slot is included, letting you routethe card to the side of the C64U for quick and convenient access right whereyou need it.
This design has low profile, colored buttons that are easyto recognize, so you always hit the right function without hesitation. Plusit’s easy to install — no soldering and or major case‑modding, just some minordisassembly that integrates cleanly with the Ultimate.
Please note that this fits the "breadbin" stylecase only and hasnotbeen tested on the newer64C/slimline/wedge style case.
Key Features
- Add tactile buttons to the side of your C64U rather than using the multi-function rocker/power switch
- Saves wear and tear on the C64U rocker switch
- Colored buttons to easily remember each function - Black (Menu), Red (Reset), and Blue (Specialty)[1]
- FDM Printed with high quality plastic[2]
- Easy DIY connectivity to the C64U (please see instructions at ntech.net)
- The "specialty" button is used by cartridge CRT image files where the physical cartridge had a button (i.e. "Freeze" cartridges such as Action Replay or Super Snapshot).
- Translucent parts aren’t fully transparent because FDM printing creates fine layer lines that diffuse light, resulting in a soft, semi‑see‑through appearance rather than true optical clarity.
