Because life was better before the reality of symbols became real
>>700830672
What do you mean by "the reality of symbols"?
>>700830735
The Reality That The Symbol Makers Now Control us, our perceptions of experience. A castle as a plaything no longer exist for most adults. It now symbolizes work, debt ownership, mortgage, responsibility.

What if this symbol of our time as being 90's kids is really something more significant? Something designed to appease children to play with it for a short period of time before being placed into the corner of a room. For some reason it's the toy that me and my friends would play with at their houses and at my house with lego men and so on.
It's fascinating to me that we come from this bizarre time in culture where suddenly the market was flooded with such an iconic array of products and as a transition from a space age society to the information age society having computers come in resulted in a complete alienation of older generations. It stands out to me how kids these days don't have this transition and their parents have iphones, not a hesitation to push a button.

>>700831610
holy shit what a god
going way back
>>700831165
You must be fun at parties.
>>700831749
it is fascinating
we're really fortunate to have the 80s and 90s to ground us - especially if you're parent
>>700831749
Maybe that's why time flies now.
My Tempus Fugit sensation is way faster than i could have imagined. Kind of like 1 year just last three real months.
>>700830181
If you didn't had that castle as a kid your parents LITERALLY didn't love you
>>700832130
Rekt son!
Wow.
You guys must have had wonderful childhoods.
My toys were a rock, an empty toilet paper roll, and my imagination.
anyone?
>>700832447
Are you an indian?
Wait. Toilet paper?
I'm sorry, you're not.
Remember having to fuck around with this...
...so you could play this?
>>700832284
Oh goddamn I miss those!
>>700833141
That's a piece of gear I haven't seen in a while.
>>700830181
Did you also got the boat?
>>700831165
Get a load of this faggot
>>700830181
Because you are a millennial. You use words like "adulting". You yearn for the carefree days before responsibility. You peaked at 12.
>>700830181
Because you remember an easier, simpler, better time.
>>700835194
You're over 40 years old?
>>700836591
I got that book at the Scholastic Book Fair
>>700830181
i got the exact fucking thing
where are you from? didn't know this was a thing in other countries
>>700831610
>>700836817
Fuck we had the exact same model
>>700836931
That looks familiar but I can't remember what it's for.
>>700832284
So that's what those plastic things were for
>>700830181
>>700830181
i had that shit i actually still do

>>700831497
Then one gets a crack and becomes totally useless haha.
>>700836455
I don't think 40 year olds and twenty somethings are in the same generation.
I'm 45 and I remember some of these.
There must be some true oldfags here, because the average 4chan user these days is about 16, and would have no idea what life was before the internet.

The good ol' days
Nostalgia to me is just remembering what it felt like to see something new for the first time. As you grow up you experience things new and it felt good like as a kid the world was huge and exciting. Now that you've seen everything there is to see you don't feel that anymore. But when you hear that song or see that image from your past that feeling of awe was recorded in your memory too, i think that's what nostalgia is but I'm no bill nye
The early days of the internet....
>>700831938
sheeeeeeit thank you, forgot about that shit
>>700837233
36 here.
My first exposure to the Internet was through Prodigy in the early 1990s.
It was a computer system we weren't meant to understand (apart from learning hints for those graphic adventure computer games).
Today's kids have no idea just how much life has changed though these incredible advances in technology.
>>700836650
Oh god I used to actually immerse myself in this one.
Also the space one
They should remake this with more relevant future factions. SJW's/Islamists/BLM/Bronies etc
>>700831938
Looks like a mouse trap ripoff.
>>700830181
I had this one OP
I think nostalgia threads are my favorite. It's like we emerge from the shadows of b to discuss the shit we grew up with. I find it hard to believe that our generation is responsible for all the uninteresting, repetitive, not funny shit that gets posted 24(7
>>700831165
what a way to fuck up a fun game.
>>700830181
probably you still have imagination and want to play with it but would consider it weird if someone finds out.
I honestly would like to play with my GI Joes but if people found out they would go this guy has gone totally insane, or something like he finally lost it.
>>700830181
>>700830350
Everything I had when I was a kid was second hand, so I had that castle too. Except only the green base and back half lol.
>>700837743
oh wow prodigy
takes me back to the computer lab
I still can't draw this.
>>700837297
Back then, I always wondered why companies made toys and video games for kids that were based on R-rated movies.
>>700836867
Fucking sucks that we can't use those things on consoles since the ps3
>>700837881
You're not my friend TOM.
>>700837774
There was a game where you had to move a fox, chicken and grain across a river - it was very educational and immersive.
>>700837845
Oh man, I remember those.
>>700837874
Ever go on Facebook? Old people suck at internet.
>>700837950
Are you retarded?
>>700836867
Still got the the one for nes laying around somewhere.
>>700837158
But everyone born after 1979 is a millenial.

>>700837297
that is fucking awesome never got one.
ah fuck it when I clean up im gonna look for some of my old toys probably would sell them.

This one had a tiny hole in the bottom for some reason. I found out that you could put it in the bathtub (closed) and it would float but gradually fill and sink in 2 minutes. This made it even more awesome to me.
>>700838132
that date: Jun 05, 1975
>>700836175
I really miss blockbuster, instead of buying the 60 dollar games I would just rent them they closed not to long ago over here im gonna check if there is still one I doubt it.
yeah i was diggin through the garage last week and came across my old finger box. gave it to my friends kid
>>700837065
That looks like someone emptied a colostomy bag after eating 15 pounds of button mushrooms
>>700837464
Check Ashens on youtube. He reviews it
>>700836711
These were my xmas for at least three years. I had 'em all. Wish I hadn't been a retard and had held on to them.
>>700838177
People say that because no one wants to be part of a shit generation...but honestly...you think that some 40 year old fucker is in the same generation as a 16 old today. You agree with that.
Fuck those indoor playgrounds.
Kids are too spoiled, and their parents are rotten.
Go play outside and scorch your ass on a hot metal slide in the middle of the summer.
>>700830181
dude im 28. i no longer feel nostalgia, love, excitement, or any sense of wonder really. ive been contemplating suicide for a while because of it. enjoy your nostalgia while you still have it

>>700831165
>A castle as a plaything no longer exist for most adults. It now symbolizes work, debt ownership, mortgage, responsibility.
Speak for yourself faggot. I went to pic related last year and drank wine while pretending I was a fucking knight before a siege.
>>700831938
noice
People who went to school in the 70s and early 80s will remember these and the smell of the paper when they were fresh off the ditto machine.
Anyone?
>>700832706
Uh, I could never beat that shit
Try harder
>>700838747
What could go wrong?
Nostalgia literally translated means a wound or a pain that is persistent. You can't get rid of it, otherwise there'd be another name for it. Dumbass
>>700838674
Who gives a shit what a 16yr old thinks about anything.
>>700838567
I lost mine. It was handed down and I fucking lost it.
>>700838954
ah yes, the good old copy what ever hip at the time and sell it with our brand slapped on it McDonald plot

It helped with "natural selection". Stupid people wouldn't be able to spread their stupid gene, until the politicians suddenly started protecting everybody with all of this safety bullshit.
It was the beginning of the end. The pussification of America.

Are you one of those people who refuse to recognise anything from 2000:s being nostalgic?
I know this may shake your wrinkles but I'm nostalgic for the ps2 and I'm 21 years old.

>>700838674
Well that's the definition of a millenial and my opinion has nothing to do with it.
But I agree.
>>700839643
I had those! What are they?

There's something sort of charming about pre-2000's era rendered animation like this to me.
I'm seeing 2 distinct age groups posting here.
20 maybe 30-somethings, and 40 maybe 50-somethings.
>>700840262
I went to a party once. Parties are overrated.
one for the 80s kids :^)
>>700841276
So 20 to 50 year olds? Very insightful.
>>700839519
Top zozzle!
>>700841276
Well, those two groups are not as distant as you think.
I grow up seeing both 70s, 80s and 90s shows, and same with music.
it's the 2000 generation the one that has lost contact with the past.
>>700839385

>>700841443
no they didn't. 35 year old teacher here. I'm actually quite amazed how much most of the ppl in early 20s enjoy old shit. being it vidagames, music or movies. it's the kids between 12 and 18 who are still more attached to what is new, but that's explainable with their actual phase of age. (sorry, not a native speaker here, but I guess you understand what I mean)

Same here. It's nice to know someone else watched this besides my dad, brother and I. Reboot was one of my favorite shows as a kid. That and beast wars/machines. Nowadays 3d animation is so cheap and good looking it makes me sad we can't go back to when cgi actually meant something.
