Kids born in the 80s and 90s probably have experienced the most amazing childhoods in human history. Growing up with all these primitive game consoles and technology and slowly watching it grow up along with us. From more powerful consoles and handhelds to watching the internet explode. It's something I know I'll never forget.
I swear it may have just been my self-aware kid years but 1998-2008 were the amazing years to grow up. The 2000's were fantastic years to be a kid. Even back then; adults complained it wasn't as good as it used to be though.
These videos make me feel like I'm watching something that a time traveler made. The way this is shot, its like someone from today went back to show what life was like.
It's weird to think. At the time people probably thought it was weird that some dude is just filming folks doing their daily business, unaware that almost 2 decades later we will be all sitting here nostalgic and feeling feels of a time long past.
That PC software section sends chills down my spine. The good old days of browsing PC games in the store and showing my mother what my Christmas/birthday request is. The thought of my mother buying it for me in a physical form and giving it to me wrapped in wrapping paper makes me sad as my kids wont experience that. I love Steam but I feel like a part of me was lost with physical media.
Seeing the gamecube section makes me want to cry. I remember when I got my first gamecube, it was sometime between 2003 and 2005 at a walmart. The dark-lit ambience of the videogame section was just like this, lined with boxes of gamecubes and gameboys. I was so sad when the gamecube started disappearing from shelves.. I still have my gamecube, sometimes I have to resucitate her, but she breathes for me. My red gameboy advance sp got lost somewhere in the late 2000s, it had puppy stickers on the cover. I still miss it
I used rush back to electronics and play the demos while my parents would grocery shop, they'd stop by and get me when they were done. Now I always take my nephews so they can play the demos when we go to Walmart or Target. Crazy how much nostalgia there is just seeing those rows of old games.
Born in 1991, went from using cassette tapes, VCRs, and floppy disks to CDs, the internet, and touch screens. Not to mention no such thing as social media until high school. Wonder how much more things will change in the coming years?

So crazy how 2004 seems such like a different time. No smart phones, no social media. Big bulky TVs and computers. And no insane politics.
Its amazing how old things from 2004 look now. To me it doesn't feel that long ago.

Being born in 1998 feels like having a foot in two worlds and not belonging to either of them.
Not a single person freaking out about a person recording.. man times were so simple back then not a single Karen in sight 😢 I want to go back

who would've thought a walk through Walmart would be such fascinating footage 20 years later.
The mother and son discussing the toy cars was so sweet. ❤

I don't know much, but thanks to this video I know that an Elmo doll cost 16.88 in 2004...
The nostalgia is so strong that it absolutely hurts to watch.
To put this in perspective, this was 19 years ago.
2004 was 20 years ago now and even then things looked so ancient!!!
I love that a lot of us get brought to tears when we see our childhood times. I wanna go back so bad.
Right before the HD era. Look at those TVs bro. I definitely did not hace a great childhood around then but yet shit feels much simpler then then now.
