Hi all,
New to the C64 mini, loving it, easier than setting up my Commodore 64! Anyways i added The Great Escape to my memory card but i can't play it. As far as i can tell the game defaults to the wrong joystick port. Is there a way to select the joystick port on the C64 mini? So if a game is expecting the joystick to be in port 1 then an option to change it over & vice versa?

The video above has a lot of good information on how to configure your C64Mini's joystick for your games, and I suggest you check it out for sure.
Short answer: If you need to use joystick 1, rather than the default of joystick 2, add _J1 to the name of your disk image. Like this: myfavoritegame_J1.d64
Enjoy!

Thanks both. I'll try that cjm method. I was reading up on it but then when i downloaded the instructions for The Great Escape it stated the default port was 2. Surprised me cause i know the mini's default port is 2 also.
