Chad's Crappy Corner & his new May theme gadget as voted on by our loyal Patreon members.

The theme our Patreons picked for May is “Cheap Entertaining Gadgets”. And Chad's first Cheap Entertaining gadget is The Oregon Trail Handheld Game.

Here's what Amazon says about The Oregon Trail Handheld Game: Learn about the realities of 19th-century pioneer life on The Oregon Trail - one of the most successful computer games of all time! Choose your profession and your traveling companions, then set out on the trek from Independence, Missouri to Oregon's WIllamette Valley circa 1848. Fill your covered wagon with supplies and prepare to cross rivers and mountain ranges along the way - hunting for food and trading for supplies as you go. Monitor your traveling pace, supplies and the health of your party closely to make sure everyone arrives safely and to avoid the dreaded message "You have died of dysentery." $15.99

And Chad's take? Chad liked this game. He thought the build quality was good and like that looked like an old computer. Even a switch that looks like a floppy disc you push to turn the unit on or off. Chad thought he paid $25, but he's not sure since it's on Amazon for $16.00 and also at Target for the about the same price. Chad's only downside is that it's one single game and there's no way to hack it to make your own variations.
