BET's Rap City: The Basement,
MTV's music videos, and the show
Street Flava were some of my favorite things about the '90s. I also remember when the first
Pokémon games came out for the Game Boy. I used to play them for hours.
Playing marbles with my buddies at school, especially during recess, was also a lot of fun.
Even though the movie
Recess: School's Out came out in 2001, it was apart of my childhood.
Power Rangers was another favorite, I watched it all the time growing up. Shows like
Franklin and
Arthur were great too.
Smart Guy is another show I really miss from the '90s. It was definitely one of my favorites as a kid.
I'm also glad I got to watch
Michael Jordan play basketball in the '90s. I was a huge
Bulls fan growing up. Honestly, I don’t think we’ll ever see another player dominate the game like he did.
Watching sports games with my dad and papa is something else I miss about the '90s. My childhood was amazing because of them, and I’ll forever miss those moments.
Seeing
Tamagotchi,
Digimon, and
Furbies launch was incredible, they helped inspire the birth of
Neopets. Without Tamagotchi and Digimon, I’m not sure where the virtual pet industry would be today. They played a major role in popularizing the genre as a whole. We also had other games like
Giga Petz,
Neko(one of the first computer pet games), and
Dogz, which was later followed by
Catz,
Dogz 2, and more, which are collectively known as the
Petz series.
