Guess it doesn't support any sound hardware?

Nope. PC speaker all the way.

Thankfully, the alarm you raised was a false one. No, they're not closing. As that article from last July says, they're removing the ability to add funds with a credit card. Other ways to add credit to your balance though remain active.

The alternate method that's most obvious is to buy a prepaid Nintendo card from a local store or online retailer and simply redeem the code on the eShop. In fact that's how the vast majority of my digital 3DS and Wii U purchases have been funded through the years, although I have added funds directly with a credit card once or twice.

The other method is adding credit to one's 'Nintendo Account' on a Nintendo Switch if that account is linked to the user's Wii U/3DS 'Nintendo Network' account. If the individual then selects on the Switch eShop to merge their funds with their Wii U/3DS account, that balance on their Switch account will be accessible on all three systems. A convenient option if one owns a Switch and likes not having to go buy a code elsewhere and then manually input it in order to add the credit to their account.

It really makes you appreciate the Atari 8-Bit, ST, Commodore 64, Amiga, and Amstrad CX-4000.

I can work with a vertically scrolling maze, but vertical and horizontal scrolling kills it for me.  If you want a good portable version from back then, check out the Game Gear version.

Full Screen View

Press Left or Right at the main menu to display a � symbol appear next to player one. Press Start to begin game play. Note: This is the classic Game Boy game, not to be confused with Ms. Pac-Man for the Game Boy Color.

@KiwiI already played it in full screen.

Out of money.

The Game Gear has one.

I guess Neo-Geo is for serious players only.

@Serguei2 Merely a joke,  Poking fun at adults who are so joined at the hip to their iPhones...They remind me of Linus and his security blanket.

PS Not saying cell phones don't have their place (And they are Amazing time wasters in certain situations!),...But when I see people walking down the street with their head buried in a phone;...It boggles my mind.  Even if you needed to, say, send a text;  Couldn't you just send the text first and then enjoy the scenery? 

At least I can laugh (Heartily) when I see videos posted of people walking along, so into their phones that they fall into a fountain... or worse

The bat can carry you over, or maybe use a bridge to get across.

There is no bat in the game (C64 version).

I completed this section anyway.

It was a joke about 2600 adventure, in the status bar I could not see any image so it was just a response based on the text... which was kind of vague without the image   All in good fun, no worries. FWIW I've always wanted to put more time into Montezuma's Revenge.  I've played it a bit on the Apple 2, but never got very far.

not the series X, just the regular.

And as per my predictions, the All digital S as well 

Actually met William S. Burroughs once.  He lived the last 15 years of his life or so in a very college town...Lawrence, KS...not far from the Kansas City suburbs where I grew up. My brother was somewhat of a beatnik in the late 80's/early 90's and was in school at the University of Kansas and ran in some of the same circles.  An unpleasant man....

Fun Fact for those that didn't read Naked Lunch:   The name of the band Steely Dan comes from the book. It was the name of an overpowered strap-on dildo...

Have you played Bandits?  If I made a top 10 list it would be in it, most likely at #1.

Omega Race would also be in my list.  It was one of my favorite arcade games back in the day, and the VIC port is quite a bit better than the other home versions:

It reminds me, I wonder if anyone has tried/succeeded in patching Bandits to run on PAL systems. I'm afraid it too closely related to the raster beam to make that a non-trivial task. A few other games like some Imagic ones exist in both PAL and NTSC versions. The majority work on either, as long as you adjust the screen positioning though.

Inside the brain of a windows machine:

Win 10: "What's this? Junk! Pitiful! Garbage!"

(user requests a read)

Win 10: "SCREW YOU!"

So .JPG images became garbage?

It's satire, or at least it's supposed to be

Good job Robin!  Unlike some folks I had no problems at all with my 2nd shot.  I was tired but that was it.  Nothing to it.

Today I saw a headline that exercising is just as good as thinking about a third shot, for that matter. Personally I'm terrible about exercising but given how many people go to the gym, go running etc, a majority should have long lasting protection given they got the initial set of shots.
