Toys "R" Us 2005 "R" Zone Catalog | Retro Rampage

Ойындар

Toys "R" Us may be long gone in the US, at least for now, but these catalogs played a huge part in getting kids hyped up to go into the stores. The "R" Zone was the dedicated video game department inside every TRU store, and it may as well have been a store by itself. Join me in this episode for a nostalgic look back at what games were new and exciting for the holiday season 17 years ago.

    I literally paid $100 for that 1 gig Sony Memory Stick back in the day, I have never quite recovered from that financially lol

    It still feels so unreal that Toys "R" Us ever shut down, it felt like such a juggernaut, that I remember when the Wii came out, one of the workers bragged about Toys "R" Us never ever going out of business.

    Old catalogs are fun to look at. I still have an old Hollywood Video/Game Crazy catalog (Movie Companion Issue 6 Publication 2005) from around this time as well. Many of the same games seen in this catalog are seen in there. (EX: Nightmare Before Christmas Oogie's Revenge (Which got recently at a convention on Xbox for $20.) Such a shame retro game prices are getting out of hand. (Especially GameCube stuff.) What I wouldn't do to get GameCube stuff at those prices. (Didn't have the best luck with the GameCube growing up.)

    Well this was unexpectedly sad. It's a little surreal to see so many great games that have become so rare/expensive readily available at such low prices. I second your idea to bring back wonky console accessories!

    I am not going to say where the Washington Mall is, but some of you might know. But now it still sits there abandoned.

    I have a lot of memories of going to that mall with my mom in the early 2000s, so I had to drive back to see the place for this video.

    Now I'm sure this was WAY before the Red Rings of Death from the Xbox 360. So when the Red Rings did happen did the RZone stop promoting the Xbox 360?
