I had a Z80 based Ti84 so I was able to play Game Boy games on it. If I had Sonic 2 that would have been nice too.

The calculator has no sound, so those routines had to go

It's got a USB port. I mean, I'd believe that it doesn't have the spare cycles to emulate the sound hardware, but in theory, I'd think that it could talk to sound hardware, as long as the OS permits for it.

What the hell, calculators with color screens? Back in my day our graphing calculators were black and gray and we were told to be happy, damn it.
