- The Commodore Boys — Netherlands, founded 1986
An intro from The Commodore Boys, a Dutch cracking group founded in 1986 and dissolved in 1987. CSDb (group ID 2705) documents TCB as a short-lived but active operation with 62 documented releases — primarily game cracks and intro demos for the Commodore 64. The group’s membership included Harry, Henk (cracker), Malibu-Soft (cracker), Roger (coder and graphician), and Yvonne (swapper), all of whom departed by mid-1987. TCB’s early founding date places it among the first wave of Dutch C64 cracking groups, predating more prominent outfits such as The Ruling Company and Paradize. The name — referencing the Commodore brand directly — suggests a group that identified strongly with the hardware platform rather than adopting the more aggressive handles common in the scene. Individual credits for code, music, or graphics on this particular intro could not be confirmed. The intros.c64.org page includes comments from scene archivists Rough and Daison.
