NINTENDO POWER!!!!

Way before we had Internet and strategy guides the only way to get all our gaming info was through Nintendo Power. This magazine changed the way we looked at games in general, Lord knows if it wasn't for this magazine and that Fred Savage movie "The Wizard" none of us would have known where to get the flute in "Super Mario Bros 3." So today we stand and salute this great magazine that changed the way Nintendo was seen through the eyes of young gamers and teens from the late 80's and through the 90's. Viva La Nintendo!

Retro Fashion Of The Week

We gotta give mad props to these 90s trendsetters, Mixing neon pink with neon green pure brilliant, now a days its all about labels, why can't we go back to when it was all about whatever you wanted to throw together and what was comfortable

Retro Show Of The Week!

Come on, It's a classic. I remember coming home everyday after school and rushing to the TV to see what evils Jason, Billy, Trini, Tommy, Kimberly and Zack were gonna take on, all the episodes were practically all the same but it was pretty cool none the less, Remember when they introduced Tommy as the green ranger?? Now that was an epic moment

Retro Movie Review Of The Week!

This weeks movie is a timeless classic, although it was met with some criticism when it was released because it dealt with some religious themes, but the moment people got over it the religion aspect of the film it became a world wide hit. Two greats minds came together to make one of the greatest movie trilogy's of all time, and these minds were George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, By this time you guys should know the movie by now, if not it's................(Drum roll Please) "Raiders of The Lost Ark". To all those who have seen this great adventure movie about a man named Indiana Jones and his quest to find one of the greatest treasures in history, You know how radical this movie was, and to those who haven't seen it (shame, SHAME) Just kidding, run into your local video store, rent it or buy it. Trust me, you won't be disappointed with this pick, while your there you should also rent the Temple of Doom and Last Crusade as well. This movie has my seal of approval. ENJOY THE MOVIE

Retro Villain Of The Month!!

SHREDDER!!!!! We should all know him by now, he's been the archenemy of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles since the early 80s, for a guy who wears pink or purple sparkly jumpsuits, he sure knows who to strike fear into hearts of men. So to leave you with his most famous words "I Will Finish What I Begun With Your Ear, Aaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!"

Retro Review Of The Week!!!

In this weeks marvelous retro review, I have chosen a movie that I just saw recently for the first time in 12 years, this movie was one of best movies of all time when it comes to fantasy, everything about it was awesome, I mean til this day I still think it was a great movie and that movie of course is The Neverending Story

Retro Revival!!!!

So in today's random "Retro Revival" I have chosen a group of men who don't realize that synchronized dance moves in your late 30s doesn't make you cool like it did in the 80s, and for that reason I had to go with New Kids On The Block.

Hey don't get me wrong, they had some pretty descent songs back in the day, I mean Step by step and The Right Stuff, these guys knew how to make the girls melt but skip 20 years later, now its just creepy to see grown men in their 30s dancing up on 20 year old girls and doing synchronized dance numbers, just disturbing. NKOTB, you used to be cool once.

RETRO REVIEW OF THE WEEK!!!!

All time classic. Thats all im gonna say, if you haven't seen this movie where have you been!!!

YTV Retro

Dear Dudes and Dudettes I was recently looking for the ultimate viewing experience when I realized all of the shows for kids today are just horrible, and an insult to children's programming. I mean we were the lucky ones, we had one of the greatest stations at our fingertips, Totally rad shows such as Rocko's modern life, Goosebumps ,Are you afraid of the dark,Groundling marsh, Earthworm Jim, Uh-Oh, Ahhhhhhhh!!!!! Real Monsters,Biker Mice From Mars, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the list can go on and on. The pre- Hannah Montana days, the glory days of our youth. Today's generation will never know a time were they can stand up and fight for the things they inced loved because frankly all the new shows suck. so if your with me and agree that there should be a place to relive some of our greatest memories. There now is, I would like to present WWW.MOGULUS.COM/YTVRETRO, on this site you'll find all of the greatest shows from early 90s ytv, as well as commercials and ytv promos. So wait are you waiting for, go to the site and spring forth into action and save a decade long forgotten. GOOD LUCK, WE'RE ALL COUNTING ON YOU

Retro Review Of The Week

Yes, It's that time once again, where I must throw another retro review at cha, and this week I've picked an 80s classic known as The Breakfast Club.


The storyline behind this classic movie is simple, 5 students from different social groups are stuck spending their Saturday morning serving detention in their school library. There's the nerd, the jock, the princess, the bad boy, and the basket case, on a regular school day none of these students would be caught dead speaking to one another but through out the movie they realize that they have more in common then they think and that their lives aren't so easy as it may seem. Alot of mischief goes down as the day goes on. Pure 80s classic at his best, Rent it, Buy it, Tivo it, Do whatever but I recommend you watch it

Mind-Boggling?!?!??!?

The year was 1981, This little device measured at 3 inches by 3 inches with 9 colored squares a side, it was impossible to put together but people tried and tried. This device brought about more confusion then the Cuban missile crisis of the 60s. This blasted device in question is the (Drum Roll please)..........................The Rubik Cube

Retro Review Of The Week

Hey guys, its that time of the week yet again. 3 words......HEY YOU GUYS. if you haven't already guessed it the retro review for the week is (Drum roll)........THE GOONIES.

This movie for those you haven't seen it is about a group of kids who called themselves "The Goonies from the "Goon Docks" neighborhood of Astoria, Oregon, venture out in an adventure for the ages looking for One-eyed Willies buried treasure in hopes of saving their homes from demolition. So if you like adventure and a crazy cast of characters as well as a rocking 80s soundtrack, you should check it out, netflix it, YouTube it, rent it, buy it. Who cares just see it

Are You Afraid Of The Dark?

A.Y.A.O.T.D.......Need I say more. I personally thought and still think this was one of the greatest shows to come out of Canada, pure genius, I mean a group of kids gather around a campfire in the middle of the woods and tell spooky stories that involve supernatural events to their group of friends known as "The Midnight Society". This is one of the many shows I wish I could have been a part of when I was younger. An even better treat for people that loved watching this show growing up is that the show has been recently released on DVD and is available at any movie store or retailer. Its defiantly worth picking up for any fans of the show

POGS!!!!!

It was the 90s and a game was sweeping throughout playgrounds all over north America, POGS is what we called it, one of the greatest games of the day, the whole concept of hitting and flippin and stack of POGS with Slammers was the easy thing for hyper-active kids to understand. Thats was the motivation behind them, not to mention the cool collectable POGS, I remember all the kids wanted the Mighty Morphin Power Ranger POGS when they came out. Man, I could sure go for a nice game of POGS right about now.

Retro Review Of The Week

So today being Thursday i decided this will become my new day for one retro review, the movie i have chosen for this week is................THE WIZARD

To those who have not seen this movie, I recommend renting it or watching it when its on television. The movie stars Fred Savage, Jenny Lewis and Luke Edward as the main characters, The movie basically follows three kids as they travel to California so the youngest, who has a condition that makes him emotionally withdrawn, can compete in the Nintendo World Video Game Championships. Not only is this a movie about over coming great odds and obstacles, it also has a pretty rad 80's soundtrack as well as scenes of retro gaming from some of the greatest games of 1989, games such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Ninja Gaiden, Super Mario Bros 3 and many more. So don't be a square and go check it out.
