UGH Viva Pinata and Animal Cross Wild World was 100% my childhood. I also played a bunch of the Humongous Entertainment games like Pajama Sam and Freddy Fish. You used to be able to get them for free from cereal boxes lol. I also really liked Zoo Tycoon, but I was awful at it and always used the cheat codes on freeplay.

ZOOMBINIS.

I watched Jerma play that recently and it was super entertaining. I think I would've been terrible at that game, especially since you can kill the little guys. I remember playing a CD ROM game called Cluefinders: 3rd Grade Adventures and could never get past easy mode.

I had to look up its name and looking at the screenshots, I remember it looking WAY different as a kid compared to now. I thought it was SO detailed as a kid lol

Fusion Frenzy on the OG xbox. I fucking LOVED that game so much. It was local multiplayer but no one ever played with me so I spent hours playing the mini-games against CPUs. It was so fun.

I also loved playing The Urbz: The Sims on the OG xbox as well. Such a banger of a game tbh. I also played a lot of Golden Sun on the Gameboy, and of course Pokemon Blue and Pokemon Crystal. And the OG Sims on PC and xbox too!

I used to go to my friends house an play the Sims Bustin Out on her Gamecube. It's like a core memory for me LOL. I decided to emulate it and play the actual story because we only did freeplay. I didnt play the OG sims on xbox, but I did play WAY TOO MUCH Sims 3 on my xbox360

Yessss! Along with Smackdown Vs. Raw 2007/2008, few other soundtracks hit the same way. Any time I hear something that's on them, I get all sorts of excited!

Possibly a little older for the majority of peeps here, but the OG Commander Keen series and even Hugo's House of Horrors series. I grew up playing these on our ancient old school PC back in the day and spent countless hours enjoying every bit of these relics <3 Anyone else had the pleasure of playing some older masterpieces?

HOLY SHIT! Commander Keen and Duke Nukem were my daily post school games. I'm going to add to that list with Aladdin, Lion King, Monster Bash, and Prince of Persia. Good old MSDos!

[Strat]

Oh yeah niiiiiice call on those ones too! I played Aladdin quite a bit (but also on Sega Megadrive back in the day too at a mates house). The Lion King I played a handful of times as well. DOS was where it was at for sure!

That was my Bard, I have so many memories and still have friends from playing back then.
Last I played the game is now 20 years ago. Sorry had to censor her name, because it's my Neopets Username.
It was more a chat channel with graphics, not comparable with modern MMORPGs, but it was revolutionary back then.

I didn’t want to start a whole new thread for this, but I just read the most nostalgic and charming article about the original Final Fantasy 7 and this thread seems like a good place to share it

The first thing that came to mind was a very early 1990s kids learning game - it was the first computer game I ever played.



The nostalgia is so strong!!
