Using a Bluetooth controller on the C64 with "C64-Blue"

I'd like to share the first prototype of an open-source add-on I am developing to add dual Bluetooth controller support to the Commodore 64.

This is excellent, I don't know which is better, the C64-Blue or your soldering skills. That board had some of the neatest solder work I've ever seen on prototyping board. I can't wait to see what other projects you come up with. Subbed ;)

That's very kind of you. Since you ask, I should get the PCBs for my DC-Power mod in the coming days, so there will be a video about that soon, and today I ordered the PCBs for C64-Blue that should allow full bluetooth keyboard integration, so that video is expected in a few weeks

Really nice project. Do you have diagrams for it? Can't wait for the keyboard mod.

Hi, thanks for the kind words, I am working on the final board and keyboard support right now, I'll make a video about it in the coming days and most likely release the schematics for non-commercial use

@@sideprojectslab7352 It seems you're loading off a tapecart though. I have a spare board for my pi1541 design that's partially populated, just needs a level shifter, header and leds. I also have a few other spare pcbs for c64 projects. Let me know if you want some 👍

Hi, @@georgep4252, that's a kind offer, perhaps let's continue the conversation over on Discord, I just created a server for the channel so you could be the "guinea pig" and see if you can join :D discord.gg/FzsP24cW
