15 Nostalgic Things That 90s Kids Grew Up Doing

7. Arcades

Every weekend would be spent dropping quarters at the local arcade. Close your eyes and you’ll be transported back to that time – the sound of all the games clinking, pinging, and roaring all around you. Popular games like Mortal Kombat, Crazy Taxi, and Area 51 would already have lines of kids waiting to go on, and you’d have to resort to playing the less popular games instead. The smell of popcorn and candy cane would be in the air, making you feel hungry and nauseous all at once. *Sigh* Those were the days.

8. Solitaire

Having just been introduced to the concept of computers, there wasn’t much one could do – especially when there was no internet. But, that didn’t really matter to us, because we had Solitaire! This was a game that we could spend hours playing.

9. Paint

The one other thing that we knew how to do on a computer, other than Solitaire, was paint. All the shapes, all the colors – you just felt like Picasso creating his masterpiece when it was just you and paint. Who else has done the thing where you scribble randomly all over the screen and then color in the sections that get formed automatically through your scribbling? Only me?
