5643vhsCoverJust_Esh_68'I can't even imagine how exciting it must have been to either unwrap this on Christmas morning, or slide it across the counter and lay out the c-note that it probably required to buy it back in 1980-something. Star Wars was my world for years and I watched this movie 3 or 4 times in the theatre alone; after all, in 1978 there were no VCRs in homes really, and it took years before a blockbuster movie ever made it to tape when they did. So we re-lived the wonder of the movies with the action figures and recreating scenes with our Han Solo blaster and homemade lightsabers! Jun 03, 2022View
5699ArticleJust_Esh_68'What a great entry! It was as if you were writing about my very own childhood. I think my favorite part was how you captured the innocence of the 80's; even though so many would make the claim that the decade was anything but! This was truly a favorite of mine!

5376Article I bought those subtitled Sailor Moon VHS tapes at Suncoast! I wanted the episodes with Sailor Saturn that were never going to make it to this country. My dad just dug out that old VHS with the home-printed stickers on the side. Going to watch next weekend. What a great memory for a nerdy kid in the 90s.Making the anime nerd transitionFeb 01, 2021View
5403ArticlesplatkillwillI got my first NES a little over 10 years after that. The PlayStation and N64 were the thing at the time. But I just remember 2 different uncles and one family friend raving about Super Mario Bros. I ended up getting one of said uncle's NES (and later his Apple //c) with Code Name: Viper, SMB/Duck Hunt, and The Simpsons: Bart vs. the World. My parents didn't like video games so I played in the garage with an old UHF/VHF TV my grandparents let me have from a shed.How I Got My NESMar 16, 2021View

5409ArticleGH0STWRTR010Wow ! this article takes me back. I always remember how exciting it was to find any new news on pokemon in magazines or just about anywhere. I even remember seeing some old artwork that had unused pokemon and it didn't hit till later on that I would never see them in the game or show. of course, the text was always in Japanese, and I couldn't read it but I always recall the thrill of seeing something new during gen 1 and 2 eras. I was lucky enough to be able to play the games by borrowing them from my brother's friend but of course, giving them back meant losing my game data. Pokemon, as I remember itApr 02, 2021View
