Things from the 80’s in Neon Colored Paper

What would the children of the 80’s say about our products today? Looking back on it, although I was never an 80’s child, I had so much appreciation for the floppy disk, the walkman, and Nintendo. These things are basically non-existent to the kids of today so French design studio Zim and Zou decided to bring them back by re-creating these toys in the neon colors of the 80’s. Peep through the rest of the slideshow for some nostalgic memories here.

Nintendo 3DS

Apparently this is what it looks like.

This is pretty! I remember when I had my own Gameboy Advance until I upgraded to a Gameboy Advance SP and then a Nintendo DS. I have no recollection of when I stopped using them and have no idea where they are now. The article that came along with introducing the Nintendo 3DS is way too long for me to read right now.

I”ll make things easier for you. I’m going to link you to the source because it is all too technical for me. Sorray!

Nintendo Is Just Like Hip Hop

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjoXqkz0-6Q&feature=player_embedded]

Believe it or not, when I was little, I was a video game FIEND. I grew up in a culdesac of boys so aside from my Polly Pockets, I was playing almost every Nintendo game imaginable until we upgraded to the N64, PS2, DS, etc etc. We had it all. I don’t have any of the consoles anymore. I wish I had kept them though as some of the consoles have become collector’s items. I looked at purchasing a couple of consoles, but they are hard to get hold of! I scoured the internet but all of the ones that I managed to find cost more than the original consoles cost to buy when they were first released! Luckily you can Download on Gamulator.com and other similar sites, all of the old games that we used to play and you can even play it on a console emulator so it feels like playing the games just I did in my childhood. The only problem is, is that they are just as addictive as I remember, there’s nothing quite like blocking out the world for a few hours and just playing video games like I’m ten years old again with no real responsibilities in the world.

So whoever created this is a genius?
