    Oh boy.... at least it's another option! I'm sure they'll bring it here eventually.

    500 points for that old crap? No thanks. They should be breaking the 100 point divisions for stuff like this, like 50 or 75 points.

    The pricing scheme on the VC has been getting on my nerves for awhile now.

    Commodore 64? Wow. If they're bringing a system THAT old into the VC, they should REALLY bring the Atari 2600 up next. :D

    If they did that and had River Raid, I'd NEVER get my Mom to leave it alone. I'd have to put it in the living room!

    I wonder if EA would bring do Archon and Mail Order Monsters.

    Also, it would be nice to have Impossible Mission with the bug removed so that you could actually beat the game.
    Was it the C64 version that had the glitch where you couldn't find all of the code?

    Any one else as a kid put in the name "Ass" in OR. Trail? So when you died it would say "RIP Ass"

    Oh kid humor.

    One of the best parts of playing Oregon Trail in school was coming upon places where people had died and seeing the potty humor kids had used for the party's names.

    hint: 90% of them were potty humor.

    There was no such glitch in the C64 version. I've beaten it many times.
