Vic20 cartridge
rarity list

This is the latest version of our big list of Vic20 carts. The list has been in gradual development since 1995. Very complete. Likely the best list of its kind, anywhere.

Vic20 cassette software list

Another software list, similar to our cartridge list above, except that it lists tapes. This was never completely finished, mostly due to the huge number of tape titles once made. I'm releasing the list now anyway, as "somewhat incomplete" beats "nothing at all". (Even incomplete, it contains 455 cassette software titles!)

Beginner's help on downloading files:
 To use any of the information in the files found above, just click on any of  the underlined titles to download a file to your own computer. When it arrives, save it on your computer, then unzip it (offline) using the popular PKZip (2.04g) utility program. The downloaded file will then be ready for printing or onscreen viewing, at your discretion. File sizes above are the size they will be after decompression, not their Internet-to-your-computer transfer size.
