Home of the Underdogs (often called HotU) is an abandonware archive founded by Sarinee Achavanuntakul, in October 1998. Before shutting down the original version in 2009, the site provided reviews for over 5,300 games and offered downloads of software and manuals for a number of games that were no longer commercially available. This allowed it to be a valuable resource to players who lost the original discs or manuals. While a majority of games available on the site were for DOS or Microsoft Windows, the site also contained a section with games for other platforms. Where downloads for these games were provided, they were usually present in formats compatible with emulators. The site also had scans of several gamebook series, many of them complete. In addition to commercial titles, the site

Il 13 febbraio 2009 il sito è stato chiuso a causa del fallimento del proprietario del server e successivamente riaperto. (it)
  • Home of the Underdogs (HotU) – serwis internetowy i archiwum gier abandonware, założone przez Sarinee Achavanuntakul w październiku 1998 roku. Z początku umiejscowiony był na darmowym serwerze, a z czasem przeniesiony na płatny serwer dedykowany z uwagi na bardzo wysoki transfer w lutym 2000 roku. Pierwotny adres strony brzmiał theunderdogs.org, w roku 2002 zmienił się na the-underdogs.org, a w 2006 na the-underdogs.info. Przyczyną w obu przypadkach było to, że nazwa domeny nie została zarezerwowana w odpowiednim czasie i przejmował ją ktoś inny. Serwis nie był aktualizowany od 14 stycznia 2006 roku. W lutym 2009 roku, w związku z bankructwem firmy, która zajmowała się jego hostingiem, serwis upadł. W marcu, z inicjatywy założycielki, rozpoczęły się prace nad odtworzeniem serwisu. (pl)
