Well, Monday night came and went, and we got a tiny bit of snow. It barely qualifies at a dusting, and it's not worthy enough for a picture. There was a little bit more snow on Tuesday afternoon at one point for a few minutes, but it quit as soon as it came. Also, my Saturn game from the Goat Store finally came yesterday. For the mix-up he sent me an extra Dreamcast game. Too bad I don't have a Dreamcast. Well, anyway, I was shocked at Tetris Plus. It's not as good as the other versions of Tetris I've played. My record on Tetris DX for GBC is 700 lines. On Tetris Plus, I barely made 60. On the licensed Tetris game for NES, I usually make 100 more. I worked for a bit on Alien Greed Adventure and I think I have solved the nasty bug that came up. It has to do with the chalice. Sometimes at the beginning, it shows up underneath the alien instead of at the other side of the screen like it's supposed to. All I had to do to (apparently) solve this one was move a few lines...
