I was at CUNY/Baruch in '91, discovering Usenet, Gopher etc at the campus' VMS, getting the thrill of using GameDoctor on my SNES. Then the civilians came onboard and all stopped feeling ... exclusive? How dare they voice their thoughts on comp.*, I am out...
It's all pure nostalgia for the times long gone. I get an urge once a year to get a thing from that era, and I do but I don't use it. That 90's Zelda does nothing for me anymore, but TOTK does.
