I found this a bit odd. All the pre-installed games on the mini are VSF-files compressed inside a GZ-file. All except the Epyx games. The only file I can find is called "EPYX-GAMES-ntsc-rgl-jp2.crt.gz" which contains a CRT-file (762 KB). When I open it up in VICE it boots up the original Summer Games from 1984. That game shouldn't even be included on the Mini, but still it's there. I opened it in a HEX editor and I get references to C64 CARTRIDGE and EasyFlash.
One thing that I find strange is that when I check the TSG-file for Summer Games II, Winter Games, World Games, California Games they all referencing the same "EPYX-GAMES-ntsc-rgl-jp2.crt.gz"
Can anyone make sense of what's going on here? I'm not so well-versed in the C64 file formats or VICE, so I might be missing something.
Why is the original Summer Games included, and where are the other games?

Hi,
I think the cartridge file contains all games, but they are located in different addreses. When you run in VICE it picks the first one, which seems to be Summer Games. If you check the TSG files, isn't there some index specified also for the different games?

There seems to be some numbered reference in the tsg-files:
I:1 Summer Games II I:2 Winter Games I:3 World Games I:4 California Games
