Even for Pokemon, Who would think about Brock and Misty were way better than the other people, that Ash traveled?
I miss watching various saturday morning blocks growing up as a kid. Like for example, Disney's One Saturday Morning on ABC.
Old school TV ratio
@@devingiles6597 What about the Disney Afternoon, Playhouse Disney and Toon Disney?
I remember the big chunky imac's as I used to have them in school and back then I thought they were cool but looking back they weren't as cool as I first thought and one thing that I miss from the late 90s was the kids TV shows I used to love watching them when I was little
I miss the culture of appointment TV and how everyone would get so excited about a show being on when they get home or rushing to school to talk about how last night’s episode went!
THISSS!!! I miss damn near getting injured tryna run to the TV before my fave show starts🤣
Same here!
That was the best! It was also a nice way to not waste so much time binging shows XD
Yes
And commercials mean pee breaks
I think we've entered the decade of 90s nostalgia
Yep
I miss the days of 80s nostalgia...
30 year nostalgia cycle. It makes sense I guess...
@@a1.ghost. as a child of the 90s I'm not quite ready for this yet lol
@@sdmurphy20 Same tbh it feels weird as it wasn't long ago. And yeah I just about qualify as a 90s baby😅 ('99)
I was an '80s kid, but what I miss most from the '90s is the innocence of living in a pre-9/11 world. No hyper partisan BS, no "war on terror", and 24-hour news was still in its infancy. It was a simpler time.
They may not have called it the "War on Terror" but there has always been a Boogeyman. 9/11 Terrorists were just another one. We use to be scared of Iranians because they Highjacked planes, Communists during the cold war and Vietnam era, Nazis in WWII, the list goes on.
@@Jay-ate-a-bug Wasn't there a terror attack in Oklahoma in the 90's?
@@Chaos89P Indeed, and that was at a time when the Boogeyman was Cults.
Actually, we still had some strong partisanship, especially under in the President Clinton-Newt Gingrich/Republican congress era, though maybe not quit as strong as today but still pretty strong. During that time was when the government shut down for a period of time the first in long time due to a stalemate between congress and the White House.when Republicans in congress tried to force through majorly unpopular Medicare and Social Security Cuts among other unpopular cuts that backfired on them.
@@Chaos89P yup. And a war and high crime rate. I get that 9/11 changed the global landscape but the idea that pre-9/11 America was some happy place where we all got along is ignorant as all hell.
A part of me wants to tear up: I'm now 38 years old, just went to my 20 year high school reunion, and this list has me missing my teen years in the mid to late 90s. I also miss Wolfe Wolfenstein on Windows 95 and 98.
Yeah I am 37 in a half shell & miss the late 80's. Piss the 90's
35 here and boy, do I miss the 90s at the moment. There was a hopeful outlook to life in the late 90s, everyone was excited for the new millenium and here we are in 2022 and there's very little light or excitement.
I'm 39 and I hear ya.
@corey Babcock Fox Kids, Kids' WB, etc?
Close to 37 and I love reading 90s memory stuff, but it also hurts a little.
I miss video rental stores. 😭😭😭 I wish I was born a decade earlier so I could've worked at one. I could talk about movies all day.
Sad little 🎻
Me too
When was you born?
@@journeytrials 1989. I graduated in 2007. By that time most of local mom & pop video rental stores had gone out of business and it was right at the beginning of when Blockbuster, Movie Gallery and Hollywood Videos started losing business to Redbox and Netflix causing them to shut down stores one right after another.
@@TearYouApart360 wow 89! I was born in 84. So you lived through the 90’s! But yeah your right bro!! I would do anything to go back to the 80’s and 90’s 2000’s sucked
I kind of miss the rental shops, but what a concept in retrospect. Impractical, expensive, and severely limited… but as you said, going to the shop with the family or friends or before a date was something special, and is now nostalgia.
I didn’t pay bills, rent, pay for my clothes or my food! I miss the 90s😂😭😭
so u miss being a kid.... lol has nothing 2 do with 90s
😂🤣😂🤣
Because your mom and dad did all that for you
The 90's was the Golden era!
I was born in the mid-90’s.
It was the last great decade.
@Annoying 90s Kid could be
For you yes,for me was the worst nightmare.
@@damirbato5686 Hope things got better
*sighs*
Many people, including myself missed the ‘90s.
I was born in 1997
In the future, people are going to miss the 2010s and possibly the 2020s. And I'm sure in the 1990s a lot of people missed the 80s and 70s. Do you know what I'm saying?
@@royroland3884
There were good and worst memories in the ‘70s, the ‘80s, the ‘90s, the 2000s and the 2010s.
I miss The 2010s when Windows 7 and Windows Vista were ALL the rage in Europe
Not me😊I was a kid in the 80's and a teen in the 90's. I'm 40 today and I wouldn't change a thing👍
I remember the countdown to the new year in 1999 and I was 9 years old and there was a huge new years party at my house and when we got down to "1" my older brother shut the electricity off and everyone in my house started screaming and I was balling my eyes out cuz I thought the world was ending!! Lmao I was so traumatized by that!! 🤦🏼♀️🤣💯
😂😂😂 I thought the world was going to end 🙄
Why didn't I think of that... hahahaha.
Oh God I'm so sorry but I laughed hard. Genius !
I was 9 years old and literally never thought anything bad would happen. Not because I was young and naive, but because I knew there were "smart computer people" (I was already a bit of a computer nerd and using AOL at this time!) that would figure it out. Now, faith in "grown-ups fixing things" as a concept may have been naive (especially now at 32), but tech people... still believe in them. Still not entirely sold in crypto and NFT stuff, but yeah.
The reason Y2K was no big deal was that many people worked very hard behind the scenes to make it that way.

I didn’t realize how much I loved and missed the Maze screensaver until y’all mentioned it-I loved that thing!!!
@Paul S. Miss the flying toaster.
I used to stare at a "sleeping" computer for hours.
If you're not on Windows 11 yet (and even then), support is still there for Screensavers to be installed and used if you pull the old 3D Maze SCR file. In 11, may need some registry hacks to enable and set the timer/screensaver though, looks like MS recently ripped that UI out.
Go play Doom. It’s on steam.
I miss the era of VHS and Audio Cassettes. The excitement of being able to watch and listen to the latest movies and music after a long wait. And of course, their beautifully designed covers containing all the information of the movies and albums.
Yes, same!
I still have my vhs player...
for my limited edition, directors cut editions of the hbo animated spawn series.
@@TheFlowerday96 Wow, don't still have my player but do have stakes of VHS tapes. Still trying to decide if getting a player is worth it or not.
Gaming magazines (EGM, Gamepro, Tips and Tricks, etc) aren't on shelves anymore. Shocking that this was overlooked from this entire list and was a huge deal for 90s gamers. Lucky me, I still have two baskets full of them, and will possibly put them on eBay for auction for a sweet, hefty price
You can still get them through Amazon. And I think books a million carries a few
I still got an EGM buyer's guide from '93 (I think. When was MK II, Donkey Kong Country, and Super Metroid released?)
@@margegarland7635 I was not aware of this. Thanks for the tip.
UPDATE: not much of a selection tho
@@MSGSlayer1 That sounds like around 93-94
@@indecutink as t least it's something. Hope you find what you need.
To this day I still miss Block Busters that was nostalgic
Same here. I miss going to the video store every Friday and renting videos for the weekend.
I remember walking doen the aisles hoping the movie I wanted was still available. 😢 I'm not crying you're crying.
@@samuelmunoz1464 it's ok to cry let it out 🥲
Me too.
I was born in 2003, but I can definitely say that the 90s seemed like a somewhat blissful decade.
You missed a great decade
I don’t think 🤔 reincarnation works like we think. But maybe you did live during that time but died and was born in the 2000’s! Does it feel familiar to you in any ways?
@@journeytrials yeah, that could be a possibility 🤔
@@njtheradical believe this or not, I have memories ever since I was born of a life before I came into this world. I don’t know why I remember it. But I can tell you that, you were somewhere before you came into this world. On the day of my birth I saw who held me first and what they were saying. Right before I came into this world. It’s was like a cavern, long line of people, in the front was a white light. As you got closer to the white light I was pulled and I saw throw the eyes of this body into my grandmother face.
Before I was in that line, I was under a 🌳 tree a moon 🌙 in the background. And voice called out to me to come and my siblings to come and then we was in this world years apart but never less I knew my siblings before I came into this world.
I never forget this, it’s never left me!
I’m convinced that we are living souls!
Enjoy your life and make the best of it bro! I know I am with this one!! Learn as much as I can and overcome.
@@journeytrials Thanks for the insight, mate. I'll definitely marinate on that.✨✌🏾
You forgot about Encarta encyclopedia. I remember spending a lot of time using it for research to write school papers.
gfto here :( its so amazing how can a simple word can gives u nostalgia
Whenever I'm not doing homework or anything else I'd spend hours browsing articles, videos, sound clips, and play games on Encarta or Compton's Encyclopedia. My time wasn't wasted because I learned a ton and had fun doing so.
Unfortunately, that went away due to the constant march of technology.
I remember using the Encarta CD and the painful moment that the CD is stuck (could not eject) so I had to manually turn off the CPU in order to restart it and hopefully eject the CD
@@jmal Had wondered if it was still around. We bought I believe the first 2 years versions. The 1st year I wasn't happy with it at all. My Dad went ahead and bought it again next year, it worked better but I still wasn't a fan. Have to adnit was a hard bound book fan at the time. We didn't update and didn't get track on the product.
@@jmal Have to ask, what's replaced it ? Please don't say Wikipedia.
It's weird but the other day I was thinking how I miss the ease of recalling years and decades by their name. Like '76 or the '90's. Now it's all 2000's or 20-10's it just doesn't flow the same way off the tongue
Noughties is 00s but yeah until our grandkids minimum are adults they wont refer to now as 20s etc itll be 2020 especially because we place so much importance on 1900s the wars the insane development in all areas of life like unless we start living in space this "era" is gonna be known for all the bs and depressing shit since we dont seem to be evolving right now.
@@EmmaAppleBerry we literally call the 1930's "The Great Depression". And do you honestly believe there has been no significant advances in technology since the turn of the millennium?
That depressing moment when you realize that it is closer to 2050 than it is to 1990....
Don't remind me
Man! Dude.....! Why'd you have to do that!!!...Now I'm paranoid. Lol.
That makes me feel really old since I was born in 1991.
90s nostalgia is all the rage because all of us who grew up then are middle aged and fondly remembering that time in our life when things seemed simpler and made sense.
im quarter aged still miss the 90s
Rental stores were my life as a kid/teen.
The 90's were more of a time where everyone had fun together and there was barely anything negative going on.
Right now people are saying the 90's was the last great decade
@@dakkuri1 Well the early 2000s were not bad either, but its when we get to the 2010s is when things started to go wrong.
@@iamjohnporter67 true. Shit the upcoming years will be scary
or it’s possible that you were a child?????
Rwanda and Bosnia: "Are we a joke to you?"
I can't wait for SJW's to discover these events and then demand the 90's be cancelled.
It always rubs me the wrong way when Y2K concerns just get simplified to “ nothing happened “ as if there was no issue. Yea, a lot of it got blown out of proportion but there was a major issue that a lot of people worked hard on fixing before anything bad happened.
A lot of people and billions of dollars across the world.
One of the “problem” with the Y2K concern, if you want to think of it that way, was that by solving the date issue in old code, nothing of any significance should happen on Jan, 1st, 2000 as was the actually caae. This unfortunately lead people to wrongly conclude that the whole problem was a made up issue or at least very significantly overblown, neither of which were true. There was real serious concerns has we not fixed these issues but the fortunate reality was that the world put so much time and money into fixing the issue ahead of time that they mange to resolve the issue. Who knows exactly what would have happened if they hadn’t fix it but I could have been bad and thus I’m glad I didn’t have to find out.
True, I did a LOT of IT contract work in the late 90s doing just this. Helping different companies get their code up to date with using a 4 digit year. By the time 99 came around, most of that work was finished and all we had to do was just wait. Miss that money though, was a good time to be in IT.
@@Charlesb88 frick thats means there is a dimension that maybe exists where the issue hasent been resolved on time. happy I dont live in that universe.
Or people who were like "Well, why was this even a problem, not like they didn't know it was coming", I mean, on one hand that's very true, on the other hand, that minimalizes the sheer amount of things that needed to be updated for Y2K. It wasn't just a software issue, though a lot of the issue was due to how the OS interacted with and stored files (and back then, Windows wasn't a full operating system, it required DOS to be running, which means MS needed to make both DOS and Windows Y2K compliant), it was also a hardware issue that needed to be corrected, which is what most people gloss over.
We have a very similar issue still upcoming for 32-bit machines in 2038, where the epoch timestamp will overflow back to 0.
Technically, the ghost of Netscape is still around in Firefox. When Netscape Communicator was sold to AOL, the code was forked into the open source Mozilla Suite, which was eventually split into Firefox and Thunderbird with many changes under the hood.
I forgot about Netscape!!!
To be clear, the “Y2K” bug could have been bad. The amount of time and work that went into updating all that code was monstrous. People seem to gloss over that fact because only a few systems shut down.
I was about to say the same thing. ☺️
The y2k should happen whenever the pandemic is over so we can actually get out and have fun
How. I never understood how computers thinking it was 1900 would have done anything.
I was 13 and didn’t understand what was going on. I literally cried for weeks before the new year. I thought the world was going to end! 😂😂😂
@@SlayerRunefrost I'll give you a for instance: For security reasons, most websites use a certificate to show that they're the real website and your browser won't load the website unless the certificate is valid. Those certificates expire at certain dates and have to be replaced with an updated version of themselves for the website to work. So if the computer is at a date before the certificate was even created, it would show invalid and basically 99.9% of websites wouldn't load. There are "Simple" ways around this but most users can barely even turn a computer on so it wouldn't be so simple. Now imagine many of the programs we run having dates built into their code for various reasons. If that were the case, those programs would have to be recoded before they'd work. People were afraid that things like bank software, etc. were coded in that way.
Going to the video store is my fondest memory from the 90's. Especially when its' snow and you had to make an effort to get there. And then to find our the movie you wanted was already rented out so you settled with a lesser one...
The nostalgia hits HARD..
Snapple Elements, these had to be the best drinks of the 90s.
Omg yes
I'm missing the big box PC games, especially from RTS games. Speaking of RTS games, they were more common in the 90's as well.
I don't miss the AOL CDs floating the mailbox though (although that was more of a problem for my parents rather than me).
I remember the days of the AOL junkmail free internet CDs in the mailbox.
They weren't junkmail to me though lol.
They were also free at a lot of grocery stores, Walmarts, and Targets where they would be hanging on the wall right in the front of the registers or hanging on the wall in the hallway of the stores.
Everytime I went to one of those stores I used to grab 2 or 3 CDs on my way out of the store to add to my pile of AOL CDs. 50 or 100 free hours was nice-- but if you could get the ones for 1000+ free hours you felt like you hit the jackpot.😂
I miss the old box PC's as well. but as we all know every brand of computer eventually becomes obsolete and that happened to the box PC's when the laptop was invented hell nowadays those old box computers would be considered dinosaurs by today's standards, i mean sure tech companies still make HP desktop computers with towers and pluggin keyboards and everything but they're not the same as the old box PC's.
Big box PC games (and some console games) back in the '80s and '90s were quite the experience. The box art was amazing, especially if it had a gatefold, the manual immersed you into the game well before you inserted the game disc because of all the lore packed in it, and sometimes you'd have extra "feelies" included like tech tree foldouts, maps, strategy guides, even an IRL version of an in-game item that not only served as the copy protection, but also a vital piece of gameplay, all at the regular $50-$60 price tag.
Nowadays, you'd have to pay extra for a "collector's edition" to get a similar kind of package, and even then it's not worth it. Sometimes the collectibles add nothing to the gameplay, have no other purpose besides collecting dust, the manual is reduced to a quick start guide (if there's one included at all), and sometimes there's no physical disc. Opening a game's plastic case to find nothing but a lousy redemption code for Steam or worse, their own online store, feels like a slap in the face.
*EDIT:* Some PC games also had an immersive installation program, made to resemble the game itself and even giving you a crash course on the lore while the game's installing in the background. Westwood Era _Command & Conquer_ games are known for this.
@@jmal True, also that's the thing nowadays: Want extra goodies? Only with collector's/limited editions.
Back then you got the stuff listed and sometimes even more, like a map or a poster.
Also regarding manuals, I miss the ones that also were like a book as well, such as the one from TA: Kingdoms or Majesty...
@@TheCommenterDragon They didn't say box PCs, they said big box PC games as in the disks came in huge cardboard boxes.
I miss the actual video rental places, loved all the new games they had as this was the only way to play before buying besides demo disks. This was the only reliable renting service we really had back then, because if you bought pirated stuff it was usually poor quality if it even worked lol...
All the online streaming services are destroying the physical media culture entirely, slowly but surely there will be very few physical media items being sold at all.
The 90s had to be the best decade to be alive in. Especially as a child.
Yes Delia’s! You either get it or don’t. The 90’s struggles were so real.
Ahh, listening to the first albums of linkin park and evanescence on my discman... those were the days
I still got my Philips brand CD player from 15 years ago and it still works good. I still prefer it from time to time but what's really nostalgic is listening to music on Windows Media Player. I still do that. I have never used Spotify or ITunes or an MP3 Player. I am forced to resort to CZcams Music app on my phone while im at work listening to music as i can't carry a bulky CD player around or my CD case either while on the clock. And CDs at my Walmart store, i work at, are no longer sold. Now we see vinyl records on the shelves for nostalgic cases i think along with record players that can play CDs. Granted that blank CD and DVD roms are still sold for PCs.
I still have my Sony Discman ESP2 player which is almost 20 years old now, still working and I added miniature duel stereos that plug into it.
I'd bought it for car trips and it hasn't gotten much use at all these past few years but it is still working great now.
Linkin Park and Evanescence are early 2000s bands.
@@mistersurrealist I know, but my memories of them are from the early 2000s. generally, my nostalgia goes to the late 90s and early 2000s as a whole
Back in the '90s we used CRT monitors and we needed screensavers to prevent burn ins
Back in the 90s I was in a very famous t.v. show
@@IveGotToast Was it Cops? America’s Most Wanted? 😂🤣
@@Charlesb88 They may have been featured on _Jerry Springer_ or _Judge Judy_
Exactly I don’t know what the narrator was talking about.
The fact Jeff Golblum did the voice over for the IMAC G3 makes it even more '90's.
I miss CDs. I honestly think the quality was better. I'm guessing that physical media will make a comeback at some point.
Same. I still have all of mine
They already did. Just look at vinyl sales
You still have CDs. I still buy them also still buy DVDs I like to have physical copies.
I still buy cds
Over compression of digital music, you can find some music file types that don’t do this, but the file sizes are much larger.
P.B. Crisps were amazing. If I remember, they had them in the chips section of the grocery store, which looking back, is probably why they didn't catch on. Put them in the candy shelf near the registers, and I think they would still be around. I miss those a lot.
Before we moved from the west coast to the midwest, we made sure to take a trip to the Bend, OR Blockbuster. We took photos outside, bought a dvd & some candy
The good old days it was such a simpler time human interaction with still prevalent and people were still in the form but not radicalized
The Windows Maze? You forgot that there was a rat in the maze.
That Orbitz drink must have been regional, never heard of it.
There are so many snack foods my cousins and I used to trade and share that I don't see anymore. S'mores Ritz Bits, certain flavors of Teddy Grahams, the original Dunkaroos, and mystery-flavor Airheads are all things I can't find around here.
The Apple Gmacs and, Sony Discman were still being sold in 2003.
I have a 1st gen Discman from 1984 that still plays, no issues.
The current internet platforms are nowhere near as private as the old ones were from what I understand.
I’ll always miss Blockbuster 😭
Me too 😞
Come visit it hasn't changed it's the same, plus they have a cool memorabilia area with signed stuff.
Discman is pretty good during 1990s.
What about Fox Kids, Kids' WB, The WB Television Network and all of the old Disney networks?
Given a choice . . .
I'd go back to this time period in a heart beat.
😞
Thanks for the trip team Mojo
💓🤗😗💕
Be safe and STAY blessed everyone
🙏
@james jerrell same my dude.
Same 😞🖐️
i would always get excited to go to blockbuster as a kid, what great times
Weekly trips to blockbuster for a new game was a big highlight of my childhood.
It's weird how I miss places like Blockbuster and Gamestop because in the early 2010s I remember how I used to think it would be so much better to have everything online.
There is still a GameStop where I live at the mall. It’s alright, it’s just not as exciting as it was in the early to mid 2000s. They sell so much merchandise and their game selection is weak. I would never sell my games to GameStop because it is being such a rip off.
1. Hearing that "You've got mail!" soundbyte when you clicked the AOL icon on your PC .
2. The Box music video channel
3. When MTV and VH1 channel were actually still all about music and music videos
4. Virgin Megastore, Tower records, and The Wiz
5. Delia's catalogue
6. Jane, Teen People, and Y&M magazines
7. Wet Seal, Mandee's, Comtempo Casuals, New York & Company clothing stores
The Box was so dope.
1. AOLs messenging was about the only good thing they did right. Can't stand their email service.
3.MTV & VH-1, back in the 80s they were great.
4.I really miss Tower Records, that's why I don't like the concept of downloading, which I don't do. I love owning the actual disc plus supporting the artist.
@@newthrash1221
The as $ whooping I almost got for ordering 4 videos *at my grandfather's house was so worth it. 😂
I don't remember all of the videos I ordered, but I do remember one of them was a Brandy video.
@@conniecarroll7222
I spent an embarrassing amount of time IMing 😂 AIM was so much fun.
I haven't used my AOL email address in years. I was one of the few people in the world who didn't want to give up their AOL email lol.
I don't like downloading or streaming music either.
I want the CD case with the pamphlet that unfolds and has the artwork or pictures/photoshoot with the artist(s), and the dedications or thank you section where the artist thanks their friends,family, and fans. You REALLY hit the jackpot when the artist included the lyrics to the songs on the album, and sometimes you even got a brief story on how and why they wrote the songs.
@@greatgownsbeautifulgowns
lol i remember i did the same thing and my mom almost whooped my ass too. good times lol
Well as a 90's kid, I find it really unfortunate that half of these things are no longer available
I had my first and only Discman during my visit to my uncle in Houston, TC in November 1998. It lasted until July 2001 ... lost it to wear & tear. I still keep it in my "treasure chest" in my attic. :)
I remember renting conkers bad fur day for the n64 as a kid to “fool” my mom. She walked in on me playing it, saw the drunk scarecrow and said “no way” and brought it right back to block buster. 😂
I now own it for my n64 as a 28 year old adult. 👍

Blockbuster was a fantastic place. Losing video rental stores truly was the end of an era. I worked at one part time in high school and, to this day, it was still the coolest, most fun job I've ever had.
I do miss screen savers. I had a collection of After Dark screen savers over the years that were mildly entertaining.
Yes I have a disc of those
Man, I miss the PB Crisps. Those were the most delicious things to come out of the 90s.
Hell yeah
In defense of the IMac G3, it was supposed to make it easier for people with no computer experience to use one. Pretty much just plugged the power cable in along with peripherals (keyboard / mouse) and turn it on. I'm not even an Apple guy, but have to appreciate that.
Fantastic video 😊🤟🏽
Lots of love from Australia 🌏🖤🥰
I had a Family Video near my suburban neighborhood that went out of business not too long ago, due to not getting any customers, so they had no other choice but to sell all their products.
Netflix actually tried to merge or partner with blockbuster but they turned them down
Probably for the best. I don't see how that would work without just ruining the memory of Blockbuster.
“Delia’s is gone…” *Currently wearing a really cute Delia’s sweatshirt I bought from Doll’s Kill 2 years ago.*
Oh I miss the 90's part of My childhood and teen years!!! So good. Nice to hear your sweet voice Rebeca!!
WE ALL LOVE 90'S NOSTALGIA!
1990s, one of my top 3 favorite decades.
Let me guess your favorites the 80s?
Oh yes I didn't even remember that it was supposed to be finding a smiley face. Here I was thinking there was an exit when really it's endless
Same
I miss those cool colored iMacs, gameboys, Oregon trail, Nickelodeon cartoons, goosebumps books, buying cds at the local electronics shops, playing with the remote cars at RadioShack.
Ah, the 90s, what a time in history that was, wasn't it? Oh how many things died off since then.
...I miss the 90's.
I'm literally distracted from the homework to watch this.
sorry!
I love the nostalgia I get from watching 90's videos on WatchMojo.
I was a 70s kid so the 90s still feel fairly recent 😂
Great video and I enjoyed it and have a blessed night
I,miss my youth the most
Honestly, id LOVE an (updated) iMac computer for my desktop computer at home. So much nostalgia, always loved it. Either teal, purple, or green
Lol, to think we were actually afraid of a number in 1999. I do miss the 90s. Socializing was done without having your face buried in a phone, cheaper prices, fewer things to find offensive, better cinema, etc. Nostalgia can be one of the most bittersweet feelings
Peggy Hill got one of them computers when she was worried about her old one beings Y2k compliant on King of the Hill. Hank got her the Blueberry one.
Y2K was real. Only a massive effort by the entire IT industry in the years preceding 2000 made it minimally impactful on most people’s lives.
*Hell yea, it was a treat goin to the video stores!*
I really wanted an iBook G3 Clamshell back in the day.
Some things on this list I never used. Interesting how we traded in Y2K for 2020.
I still prefer AIM over Discord, Discord never remembers my password even when its correct
I would add to this list Napster, KB Toys , Toys R Us, Sears, catalogs, Phone books, Kmart, Suncoast video store, Funco Land, Saturday Morning cartoons, LAN parties, link cables, Film, floppy disks, C,D and 9 volt batteries, POGs, people being impressed that CGI was sop amazing they had to see any movie that used it, 2D animated films, dial up, Extreme every thing , all movies with a 2 sequel now hat 2000 in there title , giga pets, KFC Pokemon, Ronal McDonald and his friends, schools with out metal detectors, armed guard and other drama , sexually suggestive T-Shirts , UPN, mailing letters, flip phones, land lines, Cable vs Dish , overall sanity, knowing I could trust news, well written TV shows, half a dozen really good celebrities, more boy bands then I could count, wild Pokemon Rumors , Anime on the Sci-Fi channel , The Travel Channel actually did Travel based shows, TV Guide , FMVs, Videos posted to not CZcams and a Nintendo with no drift issues.
Video rental stores indeed.

I didn't really enjoy the 1990s as a whole, but there was something very interesting it had - the audio format wars. It was cassette versus CD, and there was a long list of reasons to use one or the other. If you wanted to listen to recorded music in your car, cassette was pretty much a must, as CDs kept skipping with every single bump your car drove over (Joggers had similar problems). Then of course you had those 90-minute blank cassettes, allowing you to make home-grown collections of various artists and lumping everything together into one tape, front to back ... and it could go on 10 minutes longer than an audio CD. Even if you had an IBM PC, cassettes were useful there too, because there were tape drives. CDs had massive advantages over tapes, though - easy skipping from one track to another, better sound clarity, and software bonuses that ran on your PC (Anyone remember Sarah McLachlan's "Surfacing?"). This was a good conversation piece, to be sure.
I miss PB Crisps so much! They tasted amazing! I had the peanut butter ones several times & might have tried the chocolate ones once. Still hoping they'll come back someday!
I have such fond memories of spending hours at Blockbuster Video and not renting anything.
I wonder why they went belly up.
Really enjoyed this video, please do one for the 80's as well!
My dad still hIs his 1980's Brick mobile phone the Motorola 8000X. 😁
+ you said about the Discman and how it was walkman of the 80's-Discman came out in the 80's first and was also popular.
I remember when I was in middle school, 2003. In 2007 we got our first computer lab. We had those imacs donated from a different county. Thought they were the most futuristic tech I'd ever seen
Still have my iMac G3 Lime. What I miss about the 90's are house parties... long bangs, overalls, baggy shirts & dance battles
Can recall the the Y2K hysteria, ironically the kid that I was at the time was more concerned with playing Ocarina of Time that night than an alleged apocalypse. First time I stayed up well past midnight, parents didn't mind because hey, it's the new millennium!
It didn't 'happen' because governments and companies spend billions in money, manpower to made certain it didn't happen.
I remember this Windows 95 maze! I was always wondering if they would ever find an exit to this day I still don't know if they did. The fact that I remember that just says that Windows 95 must have been my earliest interaction with an operating system and here I thought it was Windows XP.
i was always a fan of starfiel screensaved. Being a fan of Star Trek (the older ones obviously) It gave me a feeling of floating trough space- it felt real in a way
#9: “Why hasn’t Microsoft made a full fledged game from this?”
Wolfenstein and DOOM already existed. Next question?
Wolfenstein and Doom were first person shooters, not maze navigation
@@sgillman16 They were both
I still remember using my iMac both at work and at home well into the early 2000s. It was still going strong even as of 2003.
I was sooooo psyched to jam to my DiscMan!
I freaking loved deliahs!! Wet Seal was basically the same store tho and we had one at the mall :)
Planters PB crisps were the best candy/snack ever made. I was always perplexed by the lack of sales. I think people just saw Planters as a peanut company, not PB candy company. At the time, PB candy advertising was absolutely DOMINATED by Reeses and Butterfinger, so they won out.
I do truly miss trips to the local video store. Made a fun date night back in the day. Pick a couple movies/games to play together and some snacks. Awesome.
i got a Sony Discman for Christmas years back, so cool :)
I definitely remember the delia*s catalog. That takes me back. I would circle everything I wanted, but my parents never ordered anything from catalogs. It was my dream to get outfits from there.
Same.
Lol same!
I miss the 90s.
Who would remember Fox Kids, Kids' WB and other old channels?
@@brianodonnell4496 Me. I remember these TV networks like The WB and UPN. Even the saturday morning blocks like Disney's One Saturday Morning on ABC.
@@brianodonnell4496 I remember all of that. All the kid's shows and channels were dropped at same time. I wonder what happened.
@@MrDMC11889 What about the Fox Box and Jetix(US)?
@@devingiles6597 What about Disney Afternoon, Toon Disney and Playhouse Disney?
I remember the iMac G3. My school received them by the time I was in 4th/5th grade. Computer class was lit. I remember watching a video which I now know as the first ever meme, “all your base are belong to us”.
