If you intend (or would at least like) for other people to play/try out/use what you make, consider going with a Commodore 64 instead of a 128; for people with physical hardware, the 64 is far more popular and will have a wider base of users.
Of course the 64 is a bit more limited than the 128, but handling that is part of the fun of retrocomputing. "It's not the lines that make playing Tetris interesting - it's the walls."
The commodore 64 is harvested for the SID chips, which why I find it difficult to find a fully working example. I agree with you fully otherwise.
Do you know a website where I can the SID chips or clones? (Close enough is close enough, I dont want to produce chiptunes). If you can help me otherwise, help is welcome. Also problems with video and sound out, any solutions. You seem knowledgeable, thanks!
