Description

The Commodore 65 was to be an improved version of the Commodore 64; with C64 compatibility, faster processor (3.54 MHz to the C64's 1 MHz), more RAM (128 KB, expandable to 8 MB), improved version of Commodore Basic (version 10.0) and incorporate some features from the Amiga. Despite being one of the C64's successors, the C65 actually much more resembled the C128.

Development on the C65 started in 1989 but was cancelled in 1991. Although technically unreleased, the C65 prototypes were sold on the open market after Commodore's bankruptcy in 1994.

Commodore 65-tan is represented as a tough and insane pirate girl with a never give up attitude and has gotten out into the world despite her disadvantages (incomplete, difficult to deal with) and corporate abandonment, not letting those things get her down. She resembles a younger C128-tan but with dark purple hair (like C64-tan), has dark purple eyes, wears a blue+orange+beige pirate outfit, has a wooden peg leg and carries a scabbard.

OSC Notes

She is the youngest of the Commodore-tans and used to be a sailor cadet. Only C128-tan has known of her existence and cared for her until C65-tan's exile in 1991. C65-tan has been a wanderer since then and over the years, she became a pirate and turned aggressive and insane. She has gotten into clashes with C64-tan and VIC20-tan because they thought she was a bootleg. And because of these clashes, she regards all the other Commodore-tans (even C128-tan) as rivals.
