Here's what you've missed about the X16's big 2024 update

Andy Hu

The Commander X16 team just dropped a massive update at Vintage Computer Festival South West (VCFSW). The original talk was long and unorganized, so it did not get picked up by the YouTube algorithm. However, I think there are some valuable information that the community should know, regarding pricing, availability, the financial status of the project and most exciting of all, the prospect of the second generation 'game console' unit!
The team also demonstrated the newly designed MIDI and WiFi card, along with some new games and updated old ones.
