College Dreams: The Story of General Computer (1x22)

Data di messa in onda: Nov 11, 2008

Two students, without money or contacts, found their own way into the game business. In 1981, A couple of MIT students named Doug Macrae and Kevin Curran started a small company called General Computer. These guys loved video games, played video games, bought a few arcade games, and even had their own coin-op route on campus. But the two kids were just engineering students and didn't have the factory resources to make big arcade games from scratch. So instead, they just made enhancement boards that would connect to the circuit boards of existing arcade games and modify them into new and improved versions. Thus began the start of their amazing video game career.
