Games Acquired 2013

Amazon: Dungeons & Dragons: Dragonshard ($4 + shipping). Wish I had done a little research on this one before purchasing. I thought it was a Windows Vista/7 game, it's actually a Windows 2000/XP game. Crashes when I attempt to load it on my computer. Time to drag the old PC out of the closet...

Did you try running the installer/.exe with Windows XP compatibility settings?

[ExedExes]

I'd try running it in compatibility mode too. Make sure it matches up with what the original requirements ask for.

I'll keep screwing with it. I have three different PCs here with Windows XP, Vista, and 7. I'm sure I can get it running on one of them.

My friend and I headed out to an indoor flea market the other day. He loaded up on standard-priced NES carts he didn't own yet (Robocop 2, Popeye, etc.), while I held out for a great deal. Found nothing at the market.

Feeling persistent however, I forced him to go with me to the thrift store next door, and landed myself a minty copy of Mario Golf on the GBC for $1.91!

Nice pickup, Mario Golf GBC is one of the best golf games I have ever played. I love the RPG-ish elements that it offers. It was well worth the $2.50 I paid for it on my trip in Chicago.

Yesterday at the Estarland GamesXChange event, I picked up TMNT 3 (cart only) for $15, and a Gameboy Advance SP (the newer model with the even brighter backlight) for $40 (was originally going for $45).

I hope they do more of these. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it both times.

I happened to be up that way over the weekend. Spent Friday and Saturday at my brother's place (went to the Capitals game), so we went to EStarland on Sunday.
