I vaguely recall the Sega, it's like Nintendo right? Sega Gameboy? I was never my into game consoles, I guess because they weren't much of a thing when I was a kid. I understand wanting one though.
The other thing, the science kit...I had a second hand one with most of the stuff still in it. I had fun with that although it certainly didn't help my school grades. I was average at best!
I'm pleased to hear you're able to provide the things for your kids that you couldn't have. Good effort.
Thanks for joining in

Any time, I've sat here thinking what else I wanted as a kid but I can't recall anything else.
Yea Sega was like Nintendo. I want a PS5 but the last one I bought was a PS3. As mentioned before I have kids so no time. Plus work. I find mobile gaming easier to access and use and just as fun.
I think I'll be buying a Wii next though. Would be fun with the kids and fam.
I didn't have loads of stuff as a kid, but had enough, and made up the rest with my imagination or hands. Like you my childhood was not full of loads of things and what I had was often second hand as my parents didn't have the funds to buy new. I had what I needed though, and made the rest up with my hands or imagination.
I remember playing an Atari 2600 and thinking it was the coolest thing. Our friends had it. Did I want one? Yeah of course. Didn't get it now and it never affected me adversely.
I've heard those Wii things are fun. Good things for the family to do together.
