    Wayne Joyce has a new business in the Valley Mall that can take you back 40 years in time to that first Atari or Nintendo. Forever Gaming opened its doors recently and they’re open 7 days a week. Joyce dropped into the studio this week and spoke with Bayfm’s Terry Boland. Joyce says  gamers have been asking for this for a while now.  He grew up in Benoit’s Cove and says they had 4 pool halls in the tiny south shore community.
