That was pretty common a lot back then. Many of us knew about Super Mario Bros. not because a friend next door had a NES at home, but because there was a NES adapted Arcade machine near our schools, convenience stores and tortilla shops... along with Atari 2600 adapted Arcade machines. For us Cabal were always a joystick game and we didn't know there was a real Arcade version of Kung-Fu Master. We only knew about the NES version played at Arcade places. The tradition continued with X-BOX first generation and Xbox 360 adapted Arcade machines with lots of console game emulators when they aren't plain PCs, but only before places renting gaming computers and home consoles became popular.

Legend in photo: "Did you know... in the nineties this was: 'going (buying) for tortillas'?".
