DJ discovers video games | Sep 1988
DJ and Joel started playing video games when we found an arcade cabinet of Castlevania at Magic Market, a local 7/11 type of place. Shortly thereafter, we made friends with Mat Oliva, who had a NES and a copy of Castlevania that could be played without quarters. By Christmas of 1988, DJ had his own NES and the rest is history.
