Heyo~ Anyone here love nostalgic stuff? I'm specifically referring to electronics from the 90's to early 2000's era. I was born in 1997 which is the year my favorite childhood electronic toy was launched. What toy might that be? [b]Idogs!!![/b]

I recently remembered these existing and immediately went on Ebay to get 3 different ones to reignite positive thoughts into my brain. 5 days later, 2 out of the 3 idogs were dropped off at my door. I named the plastic one [b]Robi[/b] and the plush one [b]Minky[/b]!

I have a disability that causes me deep anxiety when I'm alone in public. I need to feel like someone is with me at all times outside so my anxiety/paranoia/depression doesn't get out of control. These Idogs are [b]PERFECT [/b]as travel buddies for people like me! That's mostly why I got them in the first place... stim toy business.
[b]So, how about you all? Got any nostalgic electronics you'd like to share?

Bursting Sack of Shinies

A heavy sack bursting with treasure. So many coins were stuffed into this satchel, its seams have ripped completely open, spilling the riches.

This thing, oh god. I would spend hours in our apartment playing with it. Bless younger me and her dino fascination.
@avenfell OMG!!! I remember that toy! My older sister desperately wanted one but it was always sold out or over priced. Definitely a nostalgic piece. :)

OH MY GOD IDOGS....

Anyways just came here to say that I LOVE gamecubes. I've started modding them even tho it's technically pointless because the wii can be softmodded really easily but I just love the gamecube. The pure AESTHETIC. Some old crt tvs are really cute too :')
Also wish transparent casings on electronics was more popular nowadays. Lemme see the internals!!!!! That's cool as hell!!!

It was basically Pokemon/Digimon but you obtained them by scanning in bar codes. My sister (who was not normally into "nerdy" stuff at all) and I had sooo much fun going around and just searching the entire house for anything with a bar code. I've always wanted to recreate it as a smartphone game, but nowadays you can just google image search bar codes for an infinite supply of them so I don't think it would work.

-> HES SO SMALL AAAA
I think this one was made around the time I was a very small child. My favorite was the dog game I think [img]https://i.imgur.com/GuV1cEN.jpg[/img]
I also had a knockoff one of these

I also played this zoo game on some REALLY old desktop from before I was born. The game itself came out right before I was born but I played on it a lot as a little kid

Orchid Beetle
Insect
Found in the Starwood Strand, this nocturnal beetle gets its vivid coloration from the plants it eats. (Special thanks to Serpenthyne!)

I had/still have one of these.
<xD
It came out after the iDog, but I wasn't into it, and like, I never had a pet dog. I had fish...so,
<x3 I got the iFish as a gift for a Christmas or Birthday, can't remember which.
Yes it was a real thing. And yes, I used it way more back then than I do now.
