Hi all!
I'm new around here and I really appreciate what a bunch of talented folks are doing with this C64 mini. Lots of fun!!!

Could you all help me figure out how to get USB Keyboard, ROM from USB and Joystick working at the SAME time??

I'd like to play some games from the USB stick that require using the Joystick and Keyboard ( like Airborne Ranger) at the same time. I'd not a wiz on tech things so simple ideas would be preferred.

I think that some others might be looking for help on this issue too.

Thanks for your solutions!

Use a USB hub to add additional USB ports so you can plug in more than 2 devices.

here is the one I buyed after 2 others just because he have switches and led for turning on/off each port-->first you get enough power for what is connected, two if you have like me a usb card reader no need to unplug it anymore between each card you swap (the best for me!)
and oh yaeh its a verrry afordable one!

Mine works great with Mini, led lights looks great, just it is not extra powered nor it has switches to turn it off - but it works great. Bought it here:
