JAVASCRIPT EMULATION

ith each retro feature we are amazed at how JavaScript – yes that language used to make websites snazzy – can which is a full-blown emulator. At a glance this looks rather basic, but click the VIC-20 screen and we go into full-screen mode and start writing BASIC code. Bored of coding? You can load games via the Storage menu. There are a selection of ready-to-go games, or if you wish you can load games via a URL. Try clicking the tape player – it’s a shortcut to loading tape games from URL. This emulator is awesome! We have full control of our virtual VIC-20. We can configure our RAM, model (PAL, NTSC and Japanese VIC-1001) and set the speed of the VIC-20 (either 100 per cent or unlimited!).
