Aaaah ok, that explains a lot.
A letter for Catalan, and because it was already quite late in the life of the C64, it was not sold in high numbers.
Thanks a lot!

OK, thanks a lot for the reply! What confused me is the "ç" on the front side of the key - which is not used in Spanish, right? On the other hand, I miss accented vocals and diacritical "u".
So were all C64 computers sold in Spain the Spanish edition? And if not, how was that possible, if the law was there - they could not just ignore it, or?
Is there any more info on the web about it? Maybe even with Spanish packaging?
I did not buy it myself by the way, but I swapped it for something else, but the one who gave it to me brought it from Spain.

General / Localized Spanish C64?
« en: Agosto 10, 2017, 21:18:18 »
Hola a todos,

I just received a localized C64C, which was supposed to be a Spanish version - but while it was bought in Spain, it looks like it is actually a _Portugese_ model - see this website in German: http://www.c-64.org/de/museum.php?auswahl=m1_15
The pictures on the right show a close-up of the altered keys.
How was the situation in Spain? I have heard about the law that forced computer companies to localize small computers - but was this done with the C64?
Cheers,

Bugjam

Thanks! Well, that's me: http://csdb.dk/scener/?id=1498
I am actually not much of a player, but if I play, adventures are my favourite genre. I help out in game development occasionally, e.g. by proofreading and playtesting (for example for Heroes & Cowards).
I found RPGs always interesting as well, but could rarely muster the patience to get into the usually rather complicated play mechanics - the great Starflight was an exception. This game here though makes life so much easier though (e.g. with the automapping), and has everything one could wish for in a CRPG.
I am also an avid archivist of scene stuff; in fact that made me register here - I wanted to get access to the downloads of the compo entries, to add what was missing to csdb.
I also help with preservation, so if you have any old disks you want to transfer, or you have already transferred your collection and would be willing to share, just get in touch!

Haha, no, it's not my project - well, maybe a tiny bit now, because I bought a tavern in the Realm. :-D
But I am happy to answer any questions, as I am following the project very closely. Cheers!

Hola everybody,

sorry for writing in English, but no habla sufficiente Espaniol. :-) If somebody wants to translate, please do so - also please shift it, if the topic should be in another forum.
I just wanted to share with everyone this awesome Kickstarter campaign for a new, huge C64 (and PC) RPG in the line of The Bard's Tale, Ultima and others:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/stirringdragongames/unknown-realm-an-8bit-rpg-for-pc-and-commodore-64/description

It is quite some money that you have to out into it, if you want to get the C64 cartridge collector's edition (the cheaper ziplock bag editions are unfortunately ll gone), but it is a unique project, and defintely worth supporting IMHO. As little as I like the idea that there are no plans for any additional carts after the campaign, I believe everybody should think twice before missing this chance!
Cheers,

Bugjam
