buyers will also get a spiral-bound user guide, a 64GB USB Cassette Drive featuring 50+ full games, including licensed classics

Is this USB Cassette drive for retro vibes? Why not just have a USB flash drive? Am I missing something?

The whole thing is for retro vibes. Otherwise you’d get a $40 raspberry pi and engage in that scene, including homebrew/lofi games

I get that (I am assuming you have excellent C64 emulators for x86 too), just for some reason the USB tape deck felt like a bridge too far for me.

For those of us old enough to load games from cassette, this is fun. Unnecessary, sure, but fun.
