35 Retro Gaming Posts That Might Send You Tripping Down Memory Lane

Published 2 hours ago

Flammable cartridges, clunky consoles, and big ol’ TVs were part of a gamer’s life back in the ’80s, ’90s, and ’00s. Before Xbox and PlayStation became the trend, setting up an old-school gaming station required actual strength just so you could lug around the bulky hardware.

The folks at the “Retro Gaming & Nostalgia” Facebook community have a particularly soft spot for the fun times they had thanks to those vintage machines. We’ve collected a few relatable favourites from the page, which you can explore in the gallery below.

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.
