ie score more than 0x7FFF and get a negative score that way

That was always theoretically possible, just way too hard to achieve in reverse Polish.

Could make It a long, but that would need more real estate.

Make it a long but display it divided by 10? Or divided by 8 to allow the operation to be done via bit-shifting?

Long >> 3 sounds like a good idea
