Autumn this year it would have been 40 years after the unbelievable unexpensive deal at Aldi (Germany) for only 149 DM (around 75 EUR) and they missed the chance to celebrate this? Boooohhh!

I'm sure I read somewhere about hacking the Vice on THEC64 to also run Plus 4.

I think it's highly insulting to make a C64 mini look similar in looks to the classic C16. This also means they won't be making a C16 mini any time soon as no one would be so dumb to make a special edition C64 mini remind you every time you look at it of the C16, it just rubs you up the wrong way as I would gladly buy a C16 (Ted series) mini.
All the built-in games have also become secondary to the case colour..., it should have been the other way around! :-/
