I’ll return to my essay about wrestling in a day or two, but I was alerted to this trailer, for the movie "King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters," by my old college roommate, and I thought I’d take a breather from my manly memories of wrestling and indulge in some vicarious nostalgia for the not-so-manly days when, as the trailer says, video games ruled the earth.
On a related note, my roommate used to beat me on an almost daily basis, always by the slimmest of margins, on a Street Fighter arcade game they had in the basement of the dorm. It was excruciating.
