| just like trance, its apex was in 1999. it was probably the biggest Japanese import at the turn of the century. people in my age group born from like '87-90 were the biggest targets at the time. |

| How can we forget, with the current generation of lamentable kidults unwilling to grow out of any of the comfortingly juvenile from their childhood? |

Right on. I was too old for Pokemon even back when they originally came out. |

there's a lot of people in their 20's who still play pokemon and they actually find justification for it. I think it's pathetic. anyone older than 12 should grow out of it. I'm just simply taking a trip down memory lane. |

| What about Magic? I always thought that was a fun game. I never got so into it that I'd make decks and collect cards but would jump into a game with one of my brother's deck sometimes. |

I was definitely into Pokemon back in the day. I'd collect the cards and had a keychain, as well. The cartoons were pretty cool when I was young. I remember playing the game once with a friend in High School (freshman year) and a few times on my computer when they had an online game. Eventually I grew out of it.
Anyone remember Marvel trading cards, though? That was the back in the day. Marvel Masterpieces!
