Perhaps the one song that always pops into my head whenever the topic of the 90s comes up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WY_3uxzkoV4 One of the best show on Nick. Also I still get the music of this classic sega game stuck in my head all the time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEz4c9zwefI

 GET REAL! 90s visual aesthetics need to make a comeback. I still remember these ads so clearly and I wish, so much, that I knew who did the art.

Don't copy that floppy warns of how piracy of floppy diskettes will lead to the end of game creation in the most 90's way possible. Terrible hip hop while stylized backgrounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=up863eQKGUI

Gaunab posted:I'm sure if you watched late night tv in the 90's, you probably saw this commercial at some point Oh man, I remember seeing that commercial all the time when I'd stay up on Saturdays to watch ECW on WRBW/UPN 65. Speaking of, pro wrestling's big period was during the '90s and no wrestling is more '90s than ECW and if you ever watched it you undoubtedly saw this commercial for Extreme Warfare Vol. 2 on just about every commercial break. It's practically burned into my mind at this point. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXy7AvQgS6A As far as iconic '90s commercials go, there's one that seems to somehow not exist on the internet for some reason: Tom Emanski. Specifically the one that ran well into the 2000s with Fred McGriff.

Now I'm starting to remember more shows I watched as a kid. Bobby's World http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6xqamEd8s0 Street Sharks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqGQyMF5a_0 Toonami http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jc9Dc_v76z0 Toonami is really funny, it was the anime ever single person watched before they even know what the gently caress anime was. Wishbone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sY-v6dZtz0 I remember playing some PC game when I was a kid, it was Wishbone put into the Odyssey. I could never figure out the part near the end where you had to shoot the arrow through all the hoops. Sadly we didn't have internet back then so my only way to figure it out was to call some hotline number that told you how to do it. The 90's

Maybe you other 90's kids can help me with this. There was game I used to play, that I believe was a FPS. During the game I remember going through the map on different levels and giant eyeball monsters would pop out from around corners. Basically all I remember were eyeball monsters and it's been driving me crazy for years.

VoilaIntruder posted:I secretly miss websites for progz that looked like this (warning for loud as hell MIDI, as was the style at the time)  I remember a friend of mine making a website that looked like this for computer class in 9th grade, it had red text on blue and green backgrounds or something equally as horrifying. And GIF animations, a whole bunch of them. And frames, of course, since pretty much all of us were using premade Microsoft FrontPage templates. (We weren't taught any HTML or anything that might theoretically be useful later on) The site I made wasn't that much better, but at least it didn't permanently blind everyone who looked at it. This wasn't even in the 90s, it was around 2002 and we really should have known better by then.

How about more obscure Aussie shows! Escape from Jupiter and Return to Jupiter I think this technically eeks out Babylon 5 for a show that had extensive CG in 1994 and it's sequel in 1997. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sQvZYLyXE4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnegoBBebyk I only really dug the show as I was big into the possibilities of CG back in the 90's.

Unless I missed it, has nobody mentioned MOTHERFUCKING DOUBLE DARE YET? Oh man this was another dinnertime show, my family used to watch all the time! Also when I think of the 90s, I think of Trapper Keepers (which were banned at my school for some reason) and Lisa Frank which was really popular with the girls.  Ninja Edit: gently caress you all, I'm going to be watching 90s stuff all night now. Edit Part 2: This thread has caused quite a few memories to flood back.
