Old School Memories....

[PaulOakenfold]

I know the clock puzzle you're talking bout Awesome. Was anyone a big LEGO fan? I remember I got so worked up with it when I was younger I entered a state competition, I ended up getting 3 prize for making an aircraft carrier... or one that I thought looked like one... but I was 8, so I really didn't know all the details. Come to think of it, I don't think I could even draw one now. I wish I was still smart.

[Awesome]

[Toasty]

i'm only 13...i got about 4...5 years left

[Bob (SRB)]

clothes: shit... I wore everything I came across. Dresses, bandanas, other peoples underwear. Yea I was ghetto. Oh my god, I also always carried around a ladle with me, It was so handy. It acted as either 1. A kickass sword used to woop all the monsters and megatron, and occasionally my brother or 2. A fucking awesome guitar which i would rock out with.

Video Games Oh man, It was all about super mario and duck hunt, then there was super mario 3 which was the shit. Oh and I also had this other game for the nes... No idea what it was called. You were a little dude and you went around in castles and killed people with swords. I remember the game case had this huge ripped dude with long hair and a sweet ass sword on it.

toys SMURFS!! Ummm, I had this trainset, LEGO, me and my bro had the best lego wars, GI JOE ACTION FIGURES!!!! not those big gay ones, I'm talking the oldschool little ones.

Skateboards Oh my first skateboard was so awesome, It was this awesome oldschool deck that I found in a garbage can. It had pink plastic parts stuck all over it and weighed like 20 pounds. I made it super cool by drawing flaming skulls and lightning bolts on it.

Music Well my favourite song for a long time was always Bullet with butterfly wings by the pumpkins, I never knew the name of the song but I'd always give my ladle a good rockout whenever it came on. And look it's like 10 years later and the pumpkins are still my fav band. Even before that though... the only song that mattered to me was "NA NA NA NA NA NA BATMAN!!!" I dont think my parents will ever forget my naked batman rampages.

Cartoons Hmmmm still trying to remember the cartoons I used to watch... Bugs Bunny, Alladin, SAILOR MOON!!!!, transformers. I also used to watch alot of are you afraid of the dark.

[DOTSY]

yeah, i always played with lego, it is so fucking cool

and of course the nintendo 64 etc

[Jeansi]

clothes: I had a shitload of Adidas clothes
games: I played tetris on the original GameBoy and there was a real nice fight with my two siblings who had the highest score. Bubble Bobble was always fun on the C-64.
toys: My family had a room dedicated to Legos, I think that's enough said.
TV: thank god they hadn't invented teletubbies yet. I dunno what I used to watch.

[Pandagirl!]

K well since I'm only 14, I'm reminisce on my elementary school days.

Clothes: Limited Too was huge, and when I was in 1st and 2nd grade my mom did my shopping so I ended up wearing like overalls with applique flowers and stuff on them :eek: Farmer girl!

Video games: Well I DID grow up with two brothers, so I was like obsessed with the Mario games, and Pokemon Snap (lol), and some old school games for the intellivision like Utopia and Burger Time. And how could I forget about POKEMON!

Toys: I had the normal girl stuff like Barbies, and My Little Ponies (which I still have because mine are collectors lol), but then I also loved Legos, Lincoln Logs, Knex, Micromachines (which I still play with because they rock ), a thing called an "erector set" (wow how wrong does that sound; but it was really a building thing), and something else I can't remember the name of, but it had little round wooden things, with holes in the sides, and it came with sticks that you put in the holes to build stuff out of.

Music: Ok don't laugh but I remember in 2nd grade it was all about Backstreet Boys, Savage Garden, Nsync, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Titanic. I actually still have the soundtrack to Titanic! Yea, I've changed a bit since then. I had the hugest crush on Nick Carter of the Backstreet Boys back then.

Cartoons: Basically anything on Nickelodeon. Let's see, Rocko's Modern Life, Rugrats, Doug, Ren and Stimpy, Blue's Clues, Catdog, Little Bear, Franklin, The Wild Thornberrys, Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, Figure it Out, Nick Arcade, Double Dare, Salute Your Shorts (ok those last four aren't cartoons but still). Can you tell I'm flipping through my satillite guide to see what I watched?

rofl duck hunt, You got to love that game
i had a gun for it

[Jeansi]

yea duckhunt was fun but we modified the gun so you could be further away while shooting because it was way too easy.

[Toasty]

omg i sucked at duck hunt...i can only shoot likem 2-3 duckies

[Jerome Scuggs]

one thing that confused me about duck hunt was how did the gun shoot the TV and register where on the screen it hit?

edit: and omg the glove was so shitty

confused or confuses

[PipArchDevil]

On Duck Hunt, it registers whether or not you hit the duck(s) by a light sensor in the gun. When you pull the trigger the entire screen turns white, except for the duck(s), who turn black. So, if the sensor "sees" white, you miss, if it "sees" black in the middle at least, it registers as a hit. It's pretty simple really.

I still have my NES by the way.

[Jerome Scuggs]

that's really cool. chump'd me for years.
