Animorphs!!!!! Hahahaha, damn man, I'm getting far too excited reminissing.

 

 

 

Hah yeah, that was it. I remember the first 10 or so books being great and then I just stopped paying attention to them.

 

 

 

Part of it was that to my childhood mind turning into an animal was freaking cool. :geek:

I didn't play video games back then but I sure watched TV. Hey Arnold, Rocko's Modern Life, and Angry Beavers were my favourate. You just can't compare 90s Nick with 00's Nick...Its...crap... :cry:

My favourite game was "trouble" yeah .. how high tech was that game ;) a dice in a bubble dome and also a giant snakes and ladders mat a few metres wide.

 

 

 

You mean this game, excuse the cobwebs. ;)

Wow, this makes me feel a bit old ^_^

 

 

 

Was born in 1984.. almost 24 years ago.

 

 

 

Am I the only weird one here who remembers Pogs? I used to collect them when I was a kid.

 

 

 

Yeah I remember pogs, collected them to, and played alot, I was the best with my metal limited edition poisen pirate slammer. ;) Haha.

 

 

 

Other crazes that went through my primary was yo-yos (real flash ones, haha), chatter rings, pogs (we called them caps), Koosh balls. We even had this awesome wooden car track that went down this big hill at school, four lanes, twisted around each other. And at the bottom there was a concrete drain, I lost so many cars down there. :(

[/hide]

 

 

 

We still have that exact trouble! I remember the box well, fantastic game. Years of my childhood were spent playing the original monopoly and cluedo at my grandma's house with the cousins. Great times.

 

 

 

Anyone remember the tv show mighty ducks? Not the movie, the animated cartoon. Used to like that, as well as most of the shows mentioned before.

 

 

 

Cheese TV anyone? Only those from Australia would know it, possibly NZ. It was the show in the morning that broadcasted all of the good cartoons, channel 10. Used to love getting up early to watch them whilst eating my breaky. I always used to ring up for those competitions too, but to no avail. One of my best friends won one of the competitions once, i forget what he won though.

OMG! Ren & Stimpy![hide]

 

What rolls down stairs alone or in pairs

 

Rolls over your neighbor's dog?

 

What's great for a snack and fits on your back?

 

It's Log, Log, Log!

 

 

 

It's Log, Log, it's big, it's heavy, it's wood.

 

It's Log, Log, it's better than bad, it's good!

 

Everyone wants a log! You're gonna love it, Log!

 

Come on and get your log! Everyone needs a Log![/hide]

 

 

 

I don't remember what I had for dinner last night, but I can recite the entire opening theme to Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

 

 

 

 

 

HAHA! I have Season 1&2 DVD of Ren & Stimpy ^_^ Also have the Happy Happy Joy Joy Song somehwere as an mp3. "I don't think you're happy enough! That's right! I'll teach you to be happy! I'll teach your grandmother to suck eggs!"

 

 

 

I can recite the opening theme to Fresh Prince in my sleep. I think I've done it before actually lol. -sigh- I had such a crush on Will Smith when I was little.

 

 

 

 

 

 

You're all forgetting Goosebumps! Haha, I loved those books, started to read them when I was about six I think. They were what got me into reading (although I haven't read a book for over a year now, never find the time). I remember staying up late one night reading them, and it got me so [cabbage] scared I slammed the book shut and threw it under my bed, and it stayed under there for weeks until I picked it up again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I read a bunch of those books when I was little. Also the Babysitters' Club books. At least until I turned 10-ish and found out that Pet Sematary was a book.

 

 

 

Animorphs!!!!! Hahahaha, damn man, I'm getting far too excited reminissing.

 

 

 

I never got into those, but I had a friend with an entire collection of those books. I mean, Every single book he had (and still has, to my knowledge) in his collection.

Ah yes, Cheez TV :). Every morning I would watch that. Jay and Ryan (I think) were so cool back then. Where are they now?

 

But one thing I hated was when they would cut Pokemon in the middle of a season and start from the start of season 1 again. :lol: .

Jade Gatt and Ryan Lappin according to wikipedia. I wonder what they are doing now, good question. Clearly the show was in its prime in the late 90's, when all the good shows were on. I had no idea it was still going until 2005. Toasted TV.... just not good enough. I like the fact that they ran with the culinary theme though.

Oh, man! It's Angry Beavers! I love that show!!!!

 

 

 

On the topic of video games, I had a Gameboy Colour, and loved the old Pokemon games. Does anyone else think that the new ones abo[bleep]ely suck and that green, blue and red were the best?

 

 

 

Nadril, I loved those old pics, I remember some of those really, really old games. They're amazing too =)

 

 

 

God, what good times I had as a kindergarten kid. =P

 

 

 

Hey Arnold! Was THE CABBAGE

 

Yeah, no kidding. Another great show.

 

 

 

Unfortunately, my TV has been disconnected for, like, seven years now, so those are the only shows I've ever seen on TV. TV nowadays absolutely sucks. There are some okay comedies on, and everything else is just bad. Like, really bad.

Yeah man, 90's Nick TV was awesome. I feel sorry for kids today, I really do.

 

 

 

I was born in '88 and some of my best memories of course involve all the great games back then. It was a pretty different industry, because creating a game was incredibly cheap (get a couple of nerds with a PC) so many unique games were created. Of course, a lot of turds as well -- but yeah.

Alien Carnage. <3

Blake Stone. Really under-rated FPS for its time.

Dark Forces, of course.

Descent. Sorry about the small image, but it was the first to really make me dizzy -- so much fun.

Duke 3D, no explanation needed.

Commander Keen was incredible, one of the best DOS side scrollers.

Cosmos :lol: . Not sure if anyone remembers this game, I used to play it all the time as a kid.

Dark ages.

Duke Nukem II, hell yes. He kicked [wagon] before he was 3D.

Jazz Jackrabbit.. never knew what happened to that series, just died off.

Jill of the Jungle, man almost forgot about this one.

Monster Bash.

Ken's Laboratory.

 

 

 

I left off some of the well-known DOS games like Doom and Quake[/hide]

 

 

 

 

 

I could go on for ages as well reminiscing about my old NES and such as well, but DOS was what really introduced me into gaming.

 

 

 

 

 

I've got a disc which came with a windows 95 PC that we got when I was 5, and it has about 3/4 of those games on. And I think its testament to just how good the games are that I still have the disc, and still play some of the games 11 years later.

Aha! that was the show I was trying to think of. I loved that show. Just watched the intro on youtube. my god that show was amazing... brings back so many memories... why'd they get rid of it?

 

 

 

oh and does anyone remember that show with the superhero dogs? forgot what it was called. I loved that show until they replaced it with Krypto and some crazy cat show in early 2000s #-o

tip it would pay me $500.00 to keep my clothes ON :( :lol:
But then again, you fail to realize that 101% of the people in this universe hate you. Yes, humankind's hatred against you goes beyond mathematical possibilities.
That tears it. I'm starting an animal rebellion using my mind powers. Those PETA bastards will never see it coming until the porcupines are half way up their asses.

Pinky and the Brain was the best damn show I ever saw.

With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed.

I was born in 1991. Just 2 shows that haven't been mentioned that I think are important:

 

All That (before it turned into the dark, absurdist, joke-is-that-there's-no-joke crap that it is now)

 

 

 

Kenan and Kel

 

Who loves orange soda?

 

Kel loves orange soda.

 

Is it true? mmHmm

 

I do, I do, I do, ooh!

 

*proceeds to drink orange soda*

 

 

 

Iirc, FOX News didn't exist back then. Doesn't that little tidbit speak volumes?

 

 

 

 

 

And I still remember when Britney Spears the song Lucky. I still think it's one of the best songs I've ever heard. Speaking of music, there were the backstreet boys, west life, the spice girls, and ABBA. Not that I really paid attention, back then I liked listening to the Beatles.

Ah, I remember all these things like it was yesterday. I unfortunately was born in '92 so I missed a few here and there :oops: , but everything else I remember perfectly, especially those Pogs #-o . I remember watching goosebumps on TV when I was younger (or was it Are you afraid of the Dark?) and running and hiding under my sheets. Also, anyone remember that "Aah! Real Monsters!" show? I sadly do not have any pictures of my childhood memories. :cry:

This brings back memories.

 

 

 

I have a shoe box with all the pokemon cards I bought back then; haven't looked at them in forever, but it's there.

 

 

 

Also, who can forget Toonami? Dragon Ball Z ran my life for a couple years when it was on Toonami. And who can forget the other great shows in there? (Jonny Quest, Thundercats, etc.)

 

 

 

And Swat Kats! I loved that show, just too bad it's hard to find anymore. Hasn't been on TV in forever.

 

 

 

I could go on and on, but I won't.
