10/26/2014 Not a great doc, but the nostalgia I felt won. Nice also to hear somebody say that the collapse of the video game industry was awesome since it meant tons of cheap games. I still remember going into KB and getting a Tron game (with a triggered Joystick) for $3 (when a few years earlier games were $36 and strictly birthday/xmas presents).
