Yes dialling it down was the answer. Case in point, I made a new friend at school a year later when I overheard him telling another kid that he just got Double Dragon for the Commodore. I somehow managed to get an invite to his house to play it. But this time I was a little older and wiser.

That computer is double the nostalgia for me - it’s a working C64 (well now that I fixed it), but it’s also THE C64 I remember.
