Richard Altwasser | Designing the ZX Spectrum to Hit a Price Point | The Rubber-Keyed Wonder Movie

A short excerpt featuring Richard Altwasser, the hardware designer for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum sharing some insight into designing the ZX Spectrum to hit a price point.

This clip is from our new documentary film celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum.

2022 will mark 40 years since the Sinclair ZX Spectrum was released in April 1982! The ZX Spectrum computer went onto sell over 5 million units and was one of the most important contributions in 50 years of video game history, and for many was the most important and perhaps most loved!

It wasn't just the wonderful library of computer games that sprung up because of the ZX Spectrum, but it was the chief component that kick-started the British Video Games Industry in the 1980s!

With this project, we are making a standalone 80min feature film documentary plus loads of additional featurettes and game design stories that cover a huge array of subjects all to do with our mutual love for the ZX Spectrum and put it all into one celebratory, 40th anniversary package!
