This thread looks like my childhood, though being born in 1986.. Kinda out a few years, but i guess having younger siblings helped x)
I still have tonnes of pokemon cards, my original GB, I watched most the programs you guys have said, memorably Dinosaurs, Freakazoid, Doug, fresh prince (is it sad i brought some of those on Dvd? xD) Hey Arnold the list goes on, I remember always waking up to watch x-men xD Crystal Maze!

When furbys came out i remember pestering my dad to get me one, i wanted one so bad, then my brothers stole it when i got one for my birthday and just taught it to swear, lol..

Those were the days :}

They really are bricks, if you're talking about the original gameboy. But that was earlier, even late 1980s I think. Not really 90s at all.

Gotta love lion king and the first Aladdin. Those were the height of Disney.

What about crazy bones?


NA release was July 31, 1989

By the time most of us got one, and when the games REALLY started coming out it would be the 90's ;)

I remember when Dial-up was *almost* acceptable :p

-Tamagotchi (first gen.)

-Beanie Babies (briefly)

More will come, I'm sure.


When Gwen Stefani was in a band... No Doubt or while we're on that note how about... Smashmouth, Lit, Chumbawumba, Our Lady Peace and plenty more lol

Or how about when we watched cartoons on digital cable, on our CRT fish eye'd TVs...

Saved By The Bell
Fresh Prince of Bel Aire
Full House
Home Improvement
The Simpsons (when they were cool)

For books you had:
(When you got older maybe you read the "Redwall" series of books by Brian Jaques...)
Goosebumps
Hardy Boys or for you ladys Nancy Drew
Tin Tin

Ohh and Disney movies were cool... Sega Genesis 16-bit was the SHIZZZZZZZZ... And you actually RENTED movies from Blockbuster

I was born in 96 so I'm not much of a 90s kid heh
- The huge popularity of Pokemon trading cards - Uh huh over 300 at least :shifty:
- You've read 'Goosebumps' - Totally love them - Remembered 2 years back I went to watch em at Youtube - Mesmerized with their books :rolleyes:
- You always wanted to send in a tape to "America's Funniest Home Videos" but never did tape anything funny. - Don't have that thought but I do watch that show :thumbsup:
The rest not really :x.
But I remember loving Hi - 5 when I was really young and I would wait for 5 PM when it airs and I only watch the TV. I can smile at the old days

LOL I read both of them, and the Box Car Children.

I liked Goosebumps best of all tbh, and as for hardy boys I liked it best when they were kids before they became adults. I remember in 200# getting a Computer game for Nancy Drew, not sure when that came out tbh, but I had it lol.

Being born in 87/88 still makes you a 90's kid because you don't really remember any of the 80's, so 89 is definitely 90's kid (same here). :p

I figure if you were a kid throughout the 90's, you're a 90's kid (I was 1989. Woo, I lived seven months in the 80's. Whoopdee-fucking-doo)

I wished they play this song at my graduation.

But no, it was boring, with talk of the future and what good students we were.

It was my 6th grade graduation, so they played this one for me.. wasn't hard to find considering I could only remember some of it. Obviously I lived in Arkansas.. and we had to SING the song... unfortunately it was punctuated with me coughing.

I remember about 99% of the things in that picture. I also remember watching zelda and mario when it was on tv.

Oh, someone stole my charizard in elementary and my mom managed to get it back for me :)

Charizard was worth like 100$ then. Anyone remember the goosebumps series? It was awesome back then but cartoon network reaired it a few years ago and now I noticed the incredibly bad actors and corniness.

The 90's in nickelodeon were awesome. They had all sorts of sports things and competitions. Unfortunately nickelodeon figured out they wouldn't make much money doing that anymore and stopped(I guess). They also got rid of live audiences for some reason.

One of my favorite tv shows also was The Wonder Years with Fred Savage. They obviously reairred it a bunch durin the 90's (I was born in 1990) But it's a great show.
