Re: The Nostalgia Thread

Also...no one? Really?



This was my childhood crack (when I wasn't playing with Legos, that is)

Saw POGs mentioned upthread...I was into those and Magic: The Gathering around the same time (and yes, I know MTG still exists today)

The video games are too numerous to mention, but Tetris on the old gray Gameboy brick was my first owned one (I played an Atari at a relative's house for my first home gaming experience).

Wow...just found this on YouTube...I had this track set up in my dad's basement and would play with it for hours. It was enormous.

These aren't mine, but I had a lot of them. And I had that Titantron thing in the background.

Re: The Nostalgia Thread

My brother and I had a bunch of these as well.

Somehow, we ended up having about 80,000 XPacs. None of them ever survived long, as my brother was an angry kid and, whenever he lost a title match against myself or any of our friends in Smackdown 2, one of the XPacs would get thrown down against our brick patio by him in sheer rage, subsequently shattering it into a million pieces.

So many XPacs were destroyed... it did make for a fun Undertaker storyline where he had a bunch of XPac heads, however.

Legends of the Hidden Temple! Go Silver Snakes!

Also, I remember when they stopped selling Surge.

I wouldn't drink it now, but back then, I thought it was the best thing ever.

What are you doing? Don't provide me a link...I need to be productive! haha

By the way can't mention SkiFree without:

"The centipede twists and bends / The spiders are his only friends / If you can get them before they get you / They go back to the top and you start on rack two!"

If that's the one where some figurines had the metal plates on their feet, to where when they slide across the titontron, it automatically plays their music.. I had that one.

Also had a bunch of them

I liked 2000 and 3000 the best. I miss SimCity

I never played 3000.

The original was alright, but you were kind of limited to making a giant flat city of those 8-block squares. 2000 was a whole new animal, and it sucked me in.
