Manomio just dropped us a line to say that Apple has put the 1.2 update to its awesome C64 emulator live, which delivers the long-awaited in-app purchase system for loading new (well, old) games into your C64 emulator.

The 1.2 update will launch with three free 'purchases': Bruce Lee, Laser Squad and Samurai Warrior. Alongside these awesome freebies (Bruce Lee has aged extremely well) the first batch of paid games has also been approved.

This includes Alleykat, Uridium, Paradroid, Stormlord and Nebulus as the first round on downloadable retro classics, with more and more being added from that point forward.

C64 1.2 is a free upgrade for anyone who already owns the emulator, and is propagating through the global App Store systems as we speak. Keep an eye on your retro updates.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
