"But with the ultimate, it is basically just a C64 cartridge as far as I'm aware, which is a different size. It also comes with C64 utility cartridges built-in such as Action Replay etc, so for that it is likely not compatible for the 264 series even for drive emulation alone. I'm not quite sure how the Ultimate works yet tbh, but that's what I'm guessing."
There's no need for guessing, it has been tested and it works - and why wouldn't it? Ultimate is more like mini computer than just a cartridge, UI and some features like built-in utility carts do indeed communicate with C64 via cartridge port but emulated 1541 shows up and works just like real thing thru serial - it doesn't matter what computer you hook it up with as long as it's compliant with Commodore serial bus.
