I like how you only provide vague claims. Surely mr 'roll my own kernel' can give us more detail on how the sound ( or anything else) is busted. I'd like to know given Ubuntu has worked just fine for me for the past 7 years aside from a few wifi issues which haven't been a problem in at least 4 years.

Given the fact that nearly anyone still dedicated to even the oldest cartridge system can still play them, I think that's a non issue. They've lasted well over 20 years which is the life a disc could have due to disc rot and I wager they'll keep going after 100 years (given some systems are already approaching 50 years and that puts them around the upper lifespan of a disc and I'd say good luck on finding a xbox that has a disc drive that lasts that long.

I'm not sure what cartridges you're using but they don't bend at all. They're on a standard board like your video card. Try bending your video card in half. The NES is the only cart based system with moveable parts but they're still working and to be on the safe side I bought the top loading version too so I'm not too bothered about that.
