    Unhappy Commodore 64 help

    I wanted to try out some C64 games but I have no idea what I'm doing and I can't turn on my game. The game in question is Conan Hall of Volta. Please assist!

    I just love it when people ask for help with no hint as to what files they have or even what emulators they are using

    As a hint though extract the rom file first

    I need to know the format the game is in (Probably not a rom dump but you can call it that if you want)

    I also need to know what emulator you are trying to use and how far you got before you got stuck

    This wiki doesn't mention NIB files which is what I got from EP. Still cant get this thing going.

    EDIT: After scourging the internet I found a copy that actually worked so I'm good now

    Yeah I don't think NIB files are C64 images.
    I recommend you try a game called Elite now you're using the emu ok...maybe also The Last Ninja series and some others. I had great fun playing C64 games when I was a kid
