AFAIK, all NMOS 650x CPUs are based around the same chip mask, so that all
illegal opcodes will definatively work, not matter if it is a C64, C128, Atari
VCS, Commodore Plus 4, 1541 Floppy, etc...
BUT!
Some opcodes behave unstable due to different system design. On the C64, the
6510 CPU shares the bus with the video chip, which leads to instability with
some illegal opcodes. This *may* not apply for the VCS, since the 6507 is
the only CPU having the address/data buses.
Have a nice day!
