No. On the schoolyard, it was considered a blatant ripoff of Pokemon.

lol. Back in elementary, I remember taking one of the most valuable digimon cards and lighting it in front of a kid that loved digimon, he cried.

Digmon was unanimously shunned by every kid I knew in and out of school, but some dumb bastards actually got into it for a while. Pokemon ended up going strong long after Digimon died a horrible, painful death fading into nothing. Pokemon later followed suit, with their only remaining anchor in pop culture being a largely-ignored spinoff series.

How many Marvel cartoons were there? There was Spiderman, X-Men, Fantastic 4, the Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, and then the Avengers and Ghost Rider made guest appearances from time to time. Too bad they only play re-runs of the first two nowadays.

Man, You shoulda seen when some kid broke through the grate to the door to the "Confiscated" Cage. There was a ton of pokemon cards, Slingshots, bb guns, and a ton of cool stuff.

My 360 brings back good memories. Memories of my brother and I sitting down at out nanas house playing SmashTV on the original Nintendo. Now when he's at college we can do it again from teh Xbox Live Arcade.

And for the record. Barney always scared me sh*tless.

Haven't you forgotten labeling all video games as "nintendo"? Playing your one hour of "Nintendo time" with the egg timer? When the Re-Deads scared you out of playing Zelda for months? When sleep-overs didn't seem awkward? When you thought that nothing was too expensive for an adult?

Mine as well.

How I miss my N64

.

Proximity mines in temple, finishers in killer instinct, jumping off star road on the first drop, yoshi commiting suicide....

Hopefully the wii allows for all N64 games to be dlable.

I still have my ol' N64. With a single copy of Star Fox 64

And believe me, I had a lot.

And guys, seeing this topic brings back soo many good memories. We watched home movies last night, and just in those videos, you could tell it was like this. It's so fun talking about the past. Almost my entire 2-now

life has been explained in this topic.

I bought my second n64 last year for 2$. I still play all the old games we used too have, and being a huge Zelda fan, I play every single one of them often. Thanks guys.

I feel so weird. I never owned a Nintendo, nor did I like them at the time (I'm still not a fan of most of the games). Neither did I ever like Pokemon or any of the related card series.
