Christopher's first love.
[Christian] was loading discs on that Commodore 64 and playing with it before he could talk.
Bob Chandler[1]

The Commodore 64 was Chris's first games console.

Released in 1982, the C64 was an 8-bit home computer. Bob bought one soon after, and Chris learned to operate it at a very early age, before he could even speak.[2] Bob apparently programmed a ring-stacking game for the system. Other games the Chandlers owned included Pitfall!, Q*bert, Pole Position, Donald Duck's Playground, Muppet Adventure: Chaos at the Carnival and Charlie Brown ABCs.[3]

Chris was always careful to clarify that his first game system was the Commodore, showing that he had some sentimental attachment to it; however, he attempted to sell it on eBay for $40 in 2008.

On 14 June 2018, Chris released a video asking for a local technician to help get his old Commodore working again.
