I was sure that C64 was worldwide? ??? Even Ranman got one I think and he lives in USA.

I also remember there was some device to play tapes.

I think he meant the cartridge only version was a UK exclusive. The C64 itself did have a widespread release.

But weren't every game on cartridges? ??? Or was it just some specific ones? I remember Ranman from USA played Ultima V on his C64.

(P.S. Would an Atari 2600 emu work on the Nspire? That would be cool.)

The 2600 also uses a 6502 variant, so it's possible.

Actually there is an Atari emulation discussion thread at http://ourl.ca/10900 . I believe there was an older one before too, but I don't remember where is it.

Also isn't the 6502 the processor the SNES uses?

I know C64's were sold pretty much everywhere. I'm in the US and one of my Teachers has one. I have also known others who have ha them. When I read about them it seems as if they're worldwide.
I currently don't do much, but I am a developer for a game you should totally try out called AssaultCube Reloaded download here https://assaultcuber.codeplex.com/

@DJ: The C64 had a floppy disk drive addon, that I'd assume was the main method of software distribution. And no, The Snes uses a different processor.

Much different. I was also thinking a pre-emulation menu for loading cartridge ROMS or other media and a mid-emulation menu for loading floppy images (.d64, I think) and datasettes.
