My modifications and information on the Commodore 64 Direct-To-TV Joystick that came with 30 built in games released 2004
- Install usb socket for keyboard. --Confirmed possible
- Install 2 joystick sockets --Confirmed possible
- Create a way to play more games and programs (IEC2SD?) --Confirmed possible
- Boot staight into basic --Not confirmed possible
The batteries together created 5.8v, which was too high for the keyboard mod I wanted to do, so the batteries were replaced with a $2 5v 1 amp DC adapter from my local used thrift store. The mode was pretty easy, since it only involved desodering the wires connected to the battery compartment and connecting them to the DC adapter (I cut off the end). This is a proof concept to validate the adapter would work. I intend to install micro usb to the case and power adapter in order to upgrade the device and allow for mid to high end usb phone adapters to power the device going forward.
