Go outside and use the XXL joystick C64 to play.<\/p>\n<p>The controller we created for The Fair Grounds, called <strong>C64,<\/strong> functions just like a traditional Commodore 64 joystick: plug it in, start the game &amp; let&#8217;s play. The large size of the joystick invites players and passersby to step up and play a game, turning the solo videogame experience into a multiplayer community artwork.<\/p>\n<p>C64 was previously featured during the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/trendbeheer.com\/2018\/10\/12\/big-art-amsterdam-in-de-bijlmerbajes\/\">BigArt 2018 exhibit<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Technically, the joystick plugs in using USB and alongside Joy2Key-software it is perfect for playing arcade classics like Pacman, Space Invaders, Tetris and Snake!\u00a0 The joystick measures in at 1.20m x 1.20m x 1.00m and weighs roughly 70 kilograms.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dropstuff.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/1.-Commodore64_hoofdfoto_hi-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large
