U Ain’t Old School If U Never Played With One Of These 15 Things

Posted On : September 27, 2015

We Old Schoolers realize that there are certain old school toys we’ll probably never get to see again, but they helped shape us into who we are today. You know you’re Old School if you played with any one of these bad boys…and if you have, say it LOUD: ‘I’m Old School and I’m PROUD!’

Let us know which one was your favorite back in the day…
We used spend hours upon hours trying to figure this thing out and then once we got it, nobody couldn’t tell us NOTHING! LOL.

Remember playing astroids, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Centipede, and a whole bunch of other games on this classic? But first we had to blow into the bottom of the cartridge to make sure it was working right…LOL.
