00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,380
Hello, what's a piece of tech that's very nostalgic to you things that I still have or whatever in my life

2
00:00:06,380 --> 00:00:12,320
Something you look back on and think oh, wow, that was very nice on my phone my razor my phone

3
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:21,800
The razor this thing clamped. You know what's very nostalgic a tank electronic electronic, right? Yeah, rice cooker a

4
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:27,080
rice cooker at home what I use for Actually, I brought that

5
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:34,240
Sounds funny. I brought that rice cooker with me to Canada for 13 years. So that's pretty much

6
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,520
It's got to be the SNES. I absolutely love this nest played it a ton as a kid

7
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:48,600
It's on my first gaming memories with Super Mario World And then I used to skip school in high school to play Super Mario with my friends. So it always takes me back holding that controller

8
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:54,000
Plus Tetris attack, I'll say it once I'll say it again

9
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,680
The wiggler stage soundtrack is the best soundtrack song of all time

10
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:04,840
Listen to it. Can I say the Game Boy atomic cup of atomic purple Game Boy color?

11
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,880
I guess that's retro tech at this point my young man

12
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,160
Still got lots of life in me the only game I ever had for it was Pokemon yellow

13
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,960
But I was the first kid in my grade

14
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,920
6 class To have Pokemon yellow

15
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:27,600
So I brought it to school and then people were like, whoa, you got Pokemon yellow and Game Boy color here

16
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:32,360
And then I had to like go to like a lunch meeting for like band or something and my friend was like, oh

17
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:40,640
Here give me your game boy. I'm a good Pokemon trainer And so I gave him my game boy over lunch and I came back and like you know to be fair Pikachu was up a couple levels

18
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,040
so He broke it

19
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:51,640
He beat the elite for elite for I was gonna say the final four the fantastic four

20
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,240
Pikachu versus I want to see that. Okay, so

21
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:01,720
The the old game boys were not back lit so you couldn't see on an airplane or going through the tunnel or driving at night

22
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:07,160
So you had to buy an external little light that you plug in the side and it would shine the light and kind of block the screen

23
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:13,520
You could like bend it and stuff What's killed your battery so fast and your mom got mad at you because you had to buy more batteries

24
00:02:15,640 --> 00:02:20,320
The Logitech G5 Logitech G5 mouse and

25
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:30,600
Along with that We have this mouse pad over in the main building on in the build corner made by funk

26
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,560
They've been defunct for a while now and it's like a hard mouse pad

27
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:43,160
Mm-hmm, and that was like the first kind of big gaming purchase I made for some reason about the mouse pad before I bought the mouse, but

28
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,400
Yeah, that that funk mouse pad. I had like that exact one and

29
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:54,520
It just sits over there and from time to time if I'm in build corner and have nothing better to do

30
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:59,400
We'll just kind of look at the mouse pad longingly What's the special about it?

31
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:05,000
It just things glide along it so nicely in a way. They just don't

32
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,120
get with soft mouse pads. Mm-hmm, and

33
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,000
It's sad that the hard mouse pads have kind of

34
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:18,760
Gone away In the way that they have because for a while there they were like the hot thing

35
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,400
I don't know if it would be tech and I don't know if it's a lame answer

36
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,280
But I had a leapfrog and it was very fun to use

37
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:33,280
Okay, it was good like you had like the book and then you had the pen and somehow it knew what you were pointing to in the book and

38
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,480
That was a really fun piece of tech for me. Got to be the NES

39
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:49,040
first game console ever played on My parents had my mom actually had it for my dad after they got married as a christmas present with original gold cartridge zelda

40
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:55,680
it was the first game I ever beat seven years old and I had the the folder map that came with it and

41
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:02,400
I mean it was 90% empty boxes and my parents had played so much. They'd filled in every

42
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,880
area on the map Wow, and they had inch sharpie which

43
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:15,920
Ladies and gentlemen my parents Inch sharpie and they had burned every bush in the game. They had blown up every inch of rock

44
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,680
So definitely the NES and and zelda. Yeah, my n64

45
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,680
That's the first thing it comes to mind. Remember the atomic purple controller

46
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:34,320
Beautiful that was like Peek peak. What was some of your favorite games on the n64? Oh, I loved mark art 64

47
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,480
Donkey Kong 64 banjo kazooie

48
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,680
I was too young for golden eye when I got my n64 apparently according to my parents

49
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,960
Um, but yeah, and then we would like we would rent uh games too from like, uh

50
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,280
Rogers remember that Rogers video

51
00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,400
Yeah, we'd get uh Movie games buzz uh bug's life toy story

52
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,760
Just a bunch of games and now that i'm older

53
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,520
I have played golden eye on an n64. It's so fun. It's so fun

54
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:15,680
But yeah, n64 when I think about it and the the best part about it was knowing that

55
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,840
Like I love the two controllers because I grew up with siblings. So there's always a controller for someone else

56
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:26,080
I would just leave it unplugged That's my confession

57
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:33,520
Wow Or or you know play one single player games too. Have you told them about this yet? No, this is a confession. I am so sorry

58
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:40,480
My um my orange my translucent orange nintendo 64

59
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,200
Um, me and my brother had a bunch of games for it like curvy 64 crystal shards

60
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:51,040
You know zell lockers time smash bros and whatever And one day we uh, we got a game cube for christmas

61
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,880
So my dad and his infinite wisdom said oh, let's try and trade this in

62
00:05:55,280 --> 00:05:58,800
Uh, you know game stop wouldn't take it. So he threw it in the trash can in the mall

63
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:08,240
So so rest in peace to my translucent orange n64 and all of my games with it. That would mean worth a lot right now. Yep

64
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,040
I'm still very heartbroken about it. So Thanks

65
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,720
The most nostalgic piece of tech that I can remember. I don't know if I still have it anymore

66
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:24,400
Is this bad boy right here the compact basario 5000. So if you guys watch some LTT, we did a sleeper build with micro center

67
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,720
Using one of these case. I don't know if this is the exact chassis, but anyway, this is my first

68
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:35,840
Hand me down pc and it was pretty jack. It's very slow. I think it was running Windows me when it was uh

69
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:44,880
Brand new and I was giving it as a hand me down I could have had to leave an xp and this computer is super nostalgic to me because this is how I got really into Linux

70
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,920
I installed like poppy Linux on it or any like low

71
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:56,720
What's it called? Like not as an intensive operating system on it and I thought hey Linux could be really cool and so this was uh

72
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:02,320
This computer is like my gateway into like wow playing around with Linux and getting really into tech and stuff like that

73
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:10,480
um Like nothing's super crazy, but it was like I don't know it really cemented my interest into tech and it was a really really cool experience just like messing around with stuff

74
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,240
What's a piece of tech that's very nostalgic to you vcr vcr

75
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,800
Yeah, why uh That's what I started editing on

76
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:24,800
that was uh Just a piece of equipment like there's nothing quite like it rewinding

77
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,760
Stuff you can't do these that sounds really dumb

78
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:34,080
You can't rewind you can't rewind. What do you mean? Well, when you finish watching a video, you just close it

79
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,720
Yeah, just even dvds you just go back. You don't rewind

80
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,240
Yeah, yeah, and then uh, you know

81
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,840
Go into the video store and get in the tape for like

82
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,000
Friday night Paying the outrageous price

83
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:56,000
Just so you can watch it and people complain about Netflix these days. Oh, no renting a video is way more expensive

84
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,760
Yeah, that was like you're not just paying that subscription fee every month. You're paying it every weekend

85
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:10,400
And uh, what are you gonna do buy the video for like five times the price not five times like three times

86
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,240
It was a good amount. It was yeah, the popular stuff was always more expensive

87
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,360
Yeah, I mean they had a brick and mortar store. They knew how to pay for

88
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,760
They know that you know, you had to they had to pay for that So yeah

89
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,920
vcrs vcrs and just tapes in general vhs tapes in general

90
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,560
I guess my film camera if you come that as

91
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:37,200
Attack yeah, because like a lot of like my film cameras. I sold it and then regret it and then bought it back

92
00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:44,320
You know the same things for for my like film scanner, but you have the Nikon like 5,000 ed

93
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,880
Um, I sold it Same story sold it

94
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:56,560
Um, why do you like to film camera so much? I don't know later. It's like analog, you know

95
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:03,600
Also because film costs money Every time you press on the shutter it's actually money spending

96
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:09,200
Yeah, so yeah to make sure it was good every time to make sure you got the moment right you have to make sure

97
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:20,160
You're framing it correctly exposure for Exposing product correctly. Otherwise, you're just like wasting your own money. So and time like especially when you like scan yourself

98
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,880
Yeah, so Yeah, I just enjoy like the slow

99
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,080
kind of like feeling for shooting film

100
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,280
I guess that's a piece of tech that yeah

101
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,840
Feel pretty um

102
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,440
I may think I guess the original apple plotter

103
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,480
It's a basically a pen and it had two

104
00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:47,600
Connectors and it would draw instead of you know using a laser printer

105
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:54,160
Using your fingers I've ever seen one of those. I think I have yeah, I think I have as a pen plotter

106
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,440
It's kind of like the original draftsman type person. It does really large

107
00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:02,880
Uh Format and it can do proper shapes where that was kind of difficult for printers at the time

108
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,120
Do you have one yourself? I do it sitting in a box is pretty new mint

109
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,480
We kind of have nothing to run it with because it's super old

110
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,280
Yeah, it exists in my house somewhere. Yeah

111
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:18,480
Where do I begin? Samsung galaxy s1

112
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:26,160
Oh Yeah, why because it was the first touch screen phone the first Android phone that I ever had

113
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:34,240
Oh, yeah, and it was like You know going from like you're Nokia with your actual buttons to that was like for me still the biggest change in any phone ever

114
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,320
Do you still have it? No, unfortunately not

115
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,400
I got s2 and I lost it

116
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,560
First thing that comes to mind is like I have a

117
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:50,400
Nintendo DS light I don't know where my DS fat went

118
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:55,040
Uh, but I have the one and it was a red and black DS light that came with brain age

119
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,000
Oh my god, it's such a banger game

120
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,400
Dude, I was I credit it for why I'm wicked smart today

121
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,360
Brain age. Yeah, thanks to brain age all those sudoku puzzles and stuff like that

122
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:14,800
Um Yeah, that's a big one. I just loved that thing. I have played so many games had so many good times on that

123
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:20,800
and Bring back download play. That's the coolest thing like why is nobody doing that?

124
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,680
Give me like a little demo I can send to my friends when I'm playing on a Nintendo switch

125
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,440
I remember sitting in line for

126
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,160
the midnight release of smash brothers brawl and it was so

127
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:38,560
Frickin fun because everybody was playing games of tetris. We were playing games of mario kart and not everybody had to have the game

128
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,760
it's Why aren't we doing this? It sold me on so many games

129
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,960
I ended up buying so many more games because my friends would have them and I was like download play is awesome

130
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,000
Well, let's play the real thing. Bring it back. Bring back download play

131
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,960
It ends 64 controller

132
00:11:54,400 --> 00:12:02,560
I I have two older siblings And um, I remember playing golden eye with them like as a kid. Do you still have it?

133
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,320
No, I actually don't know where it is. We like moved a couple times

134
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,800
Um, it'd be cool if I could find it, but yeah, no idea

135
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:17,520
Probably the SNES when I was uh, when I was a wee boy My parents would always ship me off to the boys and girls club in summer

136
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,240
And the boys and girls club near our house had a SNES with like a crt

137
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:28,480
And I played so much mario on that thing that actually when I saw one on ebay recently

138
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,880
It was like very clean. I was like, I'm gonna buy that. It's been sitting. I haven't touched it really yet

139
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,400
Aside from one time, but I will. Oh, did I actually got one? Probably. Yeah

140
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:43,760
I bought one with the one game that I wanted What on earth is the boys and girls club? You know what a boys and girls club is?

141
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:51,760
It's like an after-school kind of club thing You like go hang out. It's like pool tables and like I do events like in the summer

142
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:56,320
They're like they'll pick you to like the water park. When is this like what grade like what?

143
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:02,000
Yeah, you could as long as you're as long as you're okay. Yeah, as long as you're you're not like

144
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:06,560
The last was like 18. I think is as old as you can be. Oh awesome

145
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:15,520
Is pc an acceptable answer? I feel like I've only really grown attached to pc in a way that I feel that nostalgia

146
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:21,840
Like let's talk some old hardware suck at 939. Any of those motherboards still around? Not really

147
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,840
I would build one though. I would build one. I'm going to you know

148
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:33,120
We're gonna over there. You have some? Yeah, wait. No, it's downstairs. Never mind. Oh damn it. I thought it was up there

149
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,480
Do you still have any like at home? No, I don't keep old tech

150
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,040
It takes up too much space and doesn't get used as much as I'd like it to

151
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:48,960
Which means that when you have to move say for example when you get a new job on the other side of the country

152
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,000
It's just a little too much to pack up and care about and worry about

153
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,680
So I don't have any old tech. I don't have anything

154
00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:01,680
nostalgic Just got my current pc

155
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:08,480
Game consoles. No Used to have a cool ps2 had the mod chip had all a bunch of stuff sold it

156
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:15,760
Without software Ooh, okay. Nostalgic. It's soft. Look at that. It's different. That's a little different

157
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:22,000
I've definitely kept some programs that I used way back in the day fraps. I paid for fraps

158
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:27,040
I don't know how many people you paid for fraps. Yes Still have my install from that. Oh boy
