FYI

"Jeri Ellsworth has squeezed the entire circuitry of a two-decade-old
Commodore 64 home computer onto a single chip, which she has tucked neatly
into a joystick that connects by a cable to a TV set. Called the Commodore
64--the same as the computer system--her device can run 30 video games,
mostly sports, racing and puzzles games from the early 1980s, all without
the hassle of changing game cartridges.

She has also included five hidden games and other features--not found on the
original Commodore computer--that only a fellow hobbyist would be likely to
appreciate. For instance, someone who wanted to turn the device into an
improved version of the original machine could modify it to add a keyboard,
monitor and disk drive".
