Hey y'all! I saw a post about childhood TV shows and I got all nostalgic. I think video games have had more of an impact on my childhood so I wanted to make a topic about it. Also, you might just remember some really weird games from your childhood.

This isn't a video game or anything, but I think this game is the source of all of my anxiety stemming from my childhood.



Ahhhhh Perfection....
I can still hear the ticking of the timer and feel the adrenaline pumping through my veins as I tried to beat it.

@Mousy: I'm getting anxiety just looking at that gif.

As for games I liked as a kid...

School Games:
4 square
any of the hand/clapping games

Board Games:
Mousetrap
Shoots and Ladders

Video Games:
A LOT OK? Speaking strictly NES since otherwise we'd be here all day... Mario 1, 2, & 3, Mega Man 3, Kirby's Adventure, Final Fantasy, Rockin' Cats, Snake, Rattle and Roll, Duck Hunt, Dragon Warrior, probably some others I'm forgetting at the moment because it's been a minute and I have a lot.

    I played a lot of Resident Evil and Tomb Raider and Dino Crisis when I was little late. I get all nostalgic thinking about them xD

    My favourite school game was British Bulldog which is basically a brutal game of mass wrestling. It got banned at our school because it was too rough lmao. I used to always get knocked over but I loved it. The aim was to run from one end to the other through a 'wall' made up of the other side. If you got caught then you joined the wall.

Oh my gosh, these posts make me get all nostalgic! Although I wasn't thinking of irl games you can still totally post about them! I think I'm definitely younger though (all these video games were before my time) but it's still super cool to see what people grew up with. I have played a lot of those school games though!

oof as a kid at school I mostly played with the playground equipment... like monkey bars and TETHERBALL WAS MY SHIT
at home tho I had a massive imagination and mostly just played pretend. God, my friend and I were always making a mess building forts at his house...

I've got a lot of nostalgic video games from my childhood though, most of which I played with my cousin growing up:
EVERY SONIC GAME.... EVER.........
Street Fighter. uh. idk which one. It was on the Genesis
Super Smash Bros. Melee MY DUDES
CRASH BANDICOOTTTT
Spyroooo
Pokemon Blue - which tbh I was too young to actually understand how to play so I always asked my older cousin for help. I remembered I destroyed Zapdos with my OP blastoise and then saved afterwards smh
Hey You Pikachu... man pikachu was a binch in that game
Pokemon Stadium... tbh I only cared for the minigames
Kirby Tilt n' Tumble. Yeah motion control's been around since the Gameboy Color, let that sink in......
