My name is Justin. I am from Santa Barbara, California where I am a student of philosophy and computer science at the local City College. I plan on transferring to UCSB. I spent 6 years after high school as a musician, before I shaped up and hit the books as I entered my mid twenties. I study Karate and play the trumpet when I'm not in school.

I found DP while searching for classic gaming resources and communities to interact with. I have been collecting for nearly a decade, focusing on the NES. My favorite games are The Legend of Zelda, Wizardry, and Ninja Gaiden. I also honor my roots as I am quite proficient at Defender and Galaga.

I began collecting when I realized just how much I missed over the course of my gaming career, which began in the summer of '86. It is now my personal goal to learn to program the kind of games I could be happy with, weather I market them or not. I am happy to join this wonderful community. Long live the classics!
