You've got to remember these games are decades old.  They never worked ALL the time even when they were new ... now imagine the passage of a quarter century.  Sometimes the games break and it is not practical to fix them on the spot.  I'm sorry you couldn't play this rarity, but hope you found some other games to have a good time playing.  The army of exhibitors that bring their games to share do an amazing job keeping things working, and there are SO many people keeping the games up - but we can't keep everything 100% all the time.  I hope the 400+ other working titles are enough!
Happy gaming,
Ken
