Final job is done before I go on holiday, socket attached and tested with my own SD2IEC.

I did some testing with my 1541 and Mercenary and California Games worked perfectly. I'm not sure if the others failed because they did something weird that the C64DTV didn't expect, however I don't know if the games that failed work with a real C64, so I will do more testing when I get home.

That'll probably be my last update as now getting into holiday mode and no time for doing much other than look at any posts.

Lovely! :)

Yeah, I think compatibility with a real C64 isnt 100%; people have had to patch games to work.

No worries

Yeah, I think that is likely the case since I managed to grab a few minutes and tested the games that didn't work on the C64DTV on a real C64 + 1541 and they all worked just fine.

Thanks, I'm hoping for the same too :)

As a small thank you gift for when you get back (and for anyone in the future looking for a comprehensive set of games that work or have been enhanced for the DTV), I have finally managed to find - as far as I am aware - all the fixed (~175!) C64 games for the DTV:

Enjoy! :D
