Commodore Vic-20 Review

Is the Vic-20 worth purchasing? A review from the perspective of a cheap, casual collector of video games. A quick run-down of the history, pros and cons of the games and system and whether or not it's worth your time.

Precursor to my Lazy Gamer reviews.

@psistis80 Ebay. They are super cheap if you just look patiently.

And I showed the emulator I use in the video: WinVice

As for the Vic and "ficken" comparison, in German, V's make an F sound. Ficken is the infinitive form, and when you drop the -en, it makes it a commandish form. Imagine trying to release a home computer named "FUC". Hope that cleared anything up. Great video by the way, as always.
