How many years does the C64 have remaining?

With activity down, combined with appearances of sceneres releasing old stuff created years back, I wonder how much the C64 scene can continue?

i think c64 scene will last exactly 175 more days, counting from today, 3pm.

I think the scene'll be around as long as there are working C64's. That said, it'd be nice to see some new stuff released, particularly some proper demos. Oh well, there are parties ahead... With luck, people will take the time to sit down and actually create something. I know I've been bad at it recently - no excuses!

lol, what a question :D
as long as any real hardware still works it lives...
and after that, someone finally will make a clone with all the real abilities of the original hardware...
and if not, welcome to the emuscene ;)

you know what i mean. the vcs and plus/4 (and vic-20 too) scenes always were supersmall compared to the mainstream scenes (such as c64).

if you want to mention a scene that once was reasonably big and is almost non existant today, you gotta say spectrum, or amiga =)

but I dont want to mention such a scene. the current plus4 scene shows pretty much what will happen to the c64 scene. 1-2 demo per year mostly 0, and some forum activities.
