    good design is timeless

    this chair was designed in 1951 and still remains one of the most popular chairs in the world

    The electronic music I listen to that came out 30 years ago now sounds more futuristic than most made today, funny how it works. Swear someone hit the reverse button sometimes.

        One of my favorite electronics albums, The Orb’s Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld by The Orb is 35 years old, I can’t even comprehend it. It still sounds as good today as it did then but there’s some high nostalgia involved there.

    you can pry my DSLite from my cold dead hands.

    never had the DSi or any of the nintendo handhelds after the DSLite.

    I do have a retroid pocket that I’m in love with right now. my only problem is that I can’t take it anywhere without my kids stealing it from me.

      It’s the other way around. GameFreak redesigns the Pokedex each generation to resemble contemporary hardware. Gens 1 through 4 looked like the handheld you were playing on, 5 onwards look like a smartphone, and in Let’s Go only it looks like a laptop.

        But it looks like the Gen 1 Pokédex to me, which did not really look like a Gameboy (I’m also pretty sure the Hoenn Pokédex did not look like a GBA until the remake)

    The original DSi was my favorite DS model. Still have mine. It’s too small for my hands now days though.
