Cold Spots

That was an awesome story, one of the best that I have read in the LORE forum actually.

I swear, I think all of the older K-Marts are haunted. We have an older run down K-Mart store that has been made into a "BIG K" store. And it feels very eerie at times. Mainly around 8:00 or 9:00 at night when hardly anybody is shopping. It's funny, I thought I was the only one that got this feeling.

Good story, not to mention your incorporation of paranormal theory into a retro-videogame story. someone call BPRD, quick!
I remember the K-marts around me well, complete with packed game sections and various kiosks for the new systems with the smell of Little Ceasars wafting over the aisles, calling you and your parent's money over, wherever you were in the store.

Unfortunately I mostly played Genesis and SNES kiosks as well as gameboy and game gear stands, I wasn't around for Atari's retail days. It's too bad too because that kiosk you pic'd looks bad as hell compared to the simple kiosks of my day. Again, congratulations on a thread well posted, thanks!

Enjoyed your story. K-Marts are just creepy to begin with, even without Atari cold spots tearing at the very fabric of time and space.
