It is yet another throwback Monday, and this time we take a walk down memory lane to the good old days of Toon Disney. Back in the ’90s, the cartoon world was on steroids, with creatives coming up with new and innovative ways of winning the young views. The competition was rife between the big animation studios like Disney, Nickelodeon among others. But who was to benefit, of course, it was us, the 90s kids. We were treated to weekly dose new and hilarious non-stop shows. Toon Disney was like the mother of all animation, with a crazy 6.00 AM to 5.30 AM lineup of amazing shows that you could miss. If it were not for my parents, I would have become a couch potato for watching the endless shows on Toon Disney. Today I got the urge to...
Photo Courtesy: The Verge. Do you remember Webkinz? Did you get a chance to play with the stuffed animals back in the early 2000s? Today I just bumped into the last of its kind being tossed around by a dog in the driveway. I got instant goosebumps looking at the poor stuffed animal being mishandled. Yet it made our day back then. The animal instantly reminded me of the good old days with a huge hit of nostalgia of the days we would spend hours on ends playing online. Back then, our entire school and neighborhood were obsessed with these stuffed toys called Webkinz. Back then, popularity was not determined by looks! For a while, how cool you were depended entirely on how many Webkinz you had. Seriously, this was the order of the day in...
What Retro Games Should I Start With & Where Can I Play Them Online? By Alexander Since their start, the gaming industry has come a long way. While popular belief holds that games like Spacewar or Pong were the first video games, they are now advanced versions of digital or computer games. Let's start with a quick rundown of gaming culture, followed by a look at a couple of the games that helped to shape the industry. The Cathode-Ray Tube Gadget Despite the fact that the technology was never commercially viable due to high manufacturing costs, it was awarded the distinction of "first patent for a computer game. The Cathode-Ray Tube Entertainment Gadget lays the groundwork for the first AI (Artificial Intelligence) for an interactive...
Image Courtesy: mirror.co.uk Have you ever looked at the fashion today and see how much they have borrowed from what we used to wear way back in the early 80s through to the 90s. Well, yesterday I got a hit of nostalgia while minding my own business in town. You will get a kink of the retro-style that we used to dress back in the teen years. What I noticed, is that the fashion trends, both for men and women still borrow a ton from what we used to wear back then. What does this mean? Does it imply that the fashionistas of the 80s and 90s were so futuristic in mind? They sure were, because, how do you explain a fashion trend developed in the 80s, showing up in the 21st century. Come to think of it, the same trend applies to music. Most...
Where were you in the early 90s? More specifically 1992, yes, that is over 29 years ago. That is when Microsoft introduced us to the click–drag-drop kind of life. A life that we have lived to be dependent on over 3 decades later. In the early 90s, technology was rapidly developing all over the world. The Silicon Valley giants were working overtime to beat each other in releasing the latest piece of technology that they thought will change the way we lived. It is around this time that Microsoft made some big changes in the user interface and the working of their already popular Microsoft Windows operating system. Windows 10 as we know it today, was designed on the basis of Windows 3.1x. That simply illustrates how far technology has...
What Are The Best Retro Game Consoles: 2021? - By Alexander 1. SEGA Mega Drive Mini The SEGA Mega Drive Mini (or Genesis Mini unless we're not from our tiny corner of the world) takes the top spot in our rankings without question.

When did you first interact with a computer? The early ’90s through to the 2000s was marked by rapid technological development and the spread and distribution of computers in the US and all over the world. This was dubbed the technological era. It is around this time that I started checking out what more a computer could do besides playing games. Around the same time, the gaming console was also developing rapidly. It was actually a tug of war between the gaming consoles and the computer games. Since the target market of the two was almost the same, they would converge at some point and compete intensively. It has been a while since I reviewed the tech gadgets of those days. Computers of those days were designed to achieve specific...
The Best Nintendo Shooters of All Time List by Alexander Kids dream of a variety of things, but I'm pretty sure one of the fantasies you and I had as kids were to be a badass military pilot. What if we could explore the great unknown in a great ship with plenty of cannons and weapons, liberating worlds by firing bad guys in the face? Well, the NES gave a bunch of players a platform by releasing some great shooter/shmup titles, and today we'll take a look at some of our favorites. Since the list focuses on space ship shooters, a game like gun.smoke, which is a fantastic shooter, isn't included. If you like playing retro shmups, the Turbografx is without a doubt our favorite shmup console. Let's get started on any shooting with no...
Do you remember this Crossfire Commercial? Today while making my normal rounds on the web, I bumped into the commercial. It brought all the nostalgia of the good old days when would play crossfire all weekend with my siblings and neighbors. Even if you did not get a chance to play the game, you probably remember this 30-second commercial. I can hardly get it out of my head. “.... it’s sometime in the future, the Ultimate Challenge....Crossfire” So, sometime in the future, there is a bunch of kids in leather jackets playing a game where they shoot metal balls to knock a puck into the opponent’s goal. When they lose, they spin into oblivion. It was alike spinning to hell. In the early 90s, this commercial was on all the time, it was...
How many of you were teens around the 90s? I was, were just getting amazed by the development of the internet and the web at large. At the tie, we could not even differentiate the world wide web from what the internet was. The 90s to early 2000s marked a period of rapid development and inventions in technology. Silicon Valley was famous at the time for launching one amazing technology from the other. In the same light, website and web technology were on the rise around the same period. Yes, the most prominent were Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft. This was the age of dial-up connection, and YouTube was not still a thing; therefore, most of the knowledge we had was from reading physical books and browsing the internet. I remember learning...
Photo Courtesy: New York Times. It's been a while since we traveled back in time. Today, I will take you on the journey from the ’60s through the 90's to the 2000s. Mister Rogers' Neighborhood was one of my favorite TV series back then. I would say it is one of the reasons why I ended up loving motivational books. The show stood the test of time and was the most educational musical TV show. Fred Rogers had a lovable and powerful personality. He was a stoic that many people loved watching. Most important, he was a natural. He could keep us watching the show effortlessly. He was a pro entertainer by just being himself. Today we will take a nostalgic trip down the memory lane to remind ourselves of the show Mister Rogers' Neighborhood...

Micro Machines was one of the ’90’s most popular toy car lines. The nostalgic days of Micro Machines have been revived severally, most recently as last year's display at New Your Toy Fair. I loved these toys back in the days. And as the name suggests, the toys were very small (micro). It has been a while since these toys were on the shelves, over 12 years. But the big question is, what really happened to Micro Machines? After several years of dominance in the toy world, Micro Machines went silent for a long time. If you were a teen back in the later 80s through to the 90s, you must be familiar with the top toy car brands such as Hot Wheels and Matchbox. Micro Machines were the leader in the toy playsets back then. Another strategy...
Looking back, there is only a countable number of stores that stood out and were as popular as K-Mart. For me, stopping at Kmart was one of the few things I looked forward to on weekends out with my family. But sadly, such legendary stores like Toys “R” Us and Kmart never had a smooth ride, despite having some good days back in the 80s through to the 90s. If you were lucky to have been a teenager around the 90s and early 2000s, then you must have enjoyed the goodies that Kmart and other related stores gave back then. Back then, the malls and such stores were still the things. And everybody wanted to buy their supplies from them. Thanks to the good customer services and variety of products that the stores offered. Kmart remains one of...
There has been many enterprises, organizations, and businesses that have existed for over seven decades. But Toys “R” Us has just topped the list of the longest existing Toys and clothing products. When I was a teen, we used to be big fans of Toys “R” Us. I literally have everything on me branded Toys “R” Us. Today, I had a flashback of this after checking out some YouTube videos that took me back to the early to mid-90s when I had almost all my toys from Toys “R” Us. Do you remember those good old days? Toys “R” Us like all the other business, did not have a smooth ride, it had its ups and downs with frequent closures, and revivals. But still remained my favorite toys and clothing’s options. By Mid-2018, Toy “R” Us had officially...
