Really love that, despite how old it is and how seemingly absent it is from the modern world, Weekend At Bernie’s remains the most popular (only?) reference for propping up a dead thing/idea/concept and just hoping no one notices. Profound cultural impact

My first GameFAQs login was December 96, became a daily stop and default homepage for at least 20 years 🫡
Hey, happy 30th birthday GameFAQs! Launched on November 5th, 1995!
The earliest scrape I can find on Wayback is December 1996, but I doubt the site changed much. But yes, here it is in its earliest days as the Video Game FAQ Archive!

80s movies, comics, toys really leaned into gross-out monsters / creatures, to the point where this shows up in your mailbox and barely registers. We’re out here watching Predator and Robocop and The Gate, our toys are covered in slime
Nintendo Power's September/October '88 issue featured Konami's Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, an action RPG for the NES
The controversial and creepy cover has an armored Simon Belmont holding the decapitated head of Dracula; a nod to the game's quest to recover the vampire's dismembered body parts!

Heckuva day 30 years ago on 9/9/95:
-Saw Mortal Kombat for the 4th time, still one of the greats, formative soundtrack
-Original PlayStation launch day, traded in $400 of stuff -all with receipts because I was a weirdo- and Babbages had to give me the console and two games for free

All these years later, seeing this logo and hearing this sound effect still make me feel like I'm about to watch "news" that my parents wouldn't want me to watch.

Vague memories of Wrath of Khan and “the one with the whales” on TV, then around 89-90 started catching alternating TOS/TNG reruns.
Seeing S2 stuff like Where Silence Has Lease and Q Who made me want to watch every day. By 92 I was watching new eps live and gorging on multiple reruns a day

Trekkies: If you see this post your first experience with Star Trek.
*I need to add a bit of clarification to this. I remember my grandmother watching TOS when she'd babysit me while my parents were in work, and I know I'd seen bits of either Star Trek III or IV.

Omg I remember watching this in like 2001 on stuttery dialup internet, ancient memory unlocked. It was definitely on IGN at one point
I don't know if this is lost IGN Media, since the links on their site don't work, but for whatever reason I've saved several short videos of this event on my PC for decades. Thanks for triggering the memory and making me go hunt. If you want more let me know.

Against all odds, this was one of my favorite games of the early ‘90s
A double ad from Japan in 1992 for the Sega Mega CD featuring the tactical RPG, Dark Wizard, by Sega and a port of the cyberpunk adventure game, Rise of the Dragon, originally released for PCs by Dynamix

A little lttp but Thunderbolts was good! Easy to root for / dislike the right characters, tone and energy felt like phase 1 or 2.
It’s getting harder to think of characters “they’d never get around to” for a movie, but Sentry/Void was one I thought they’d never bother with, and it was a fun version

Dodgers broadcast was discussing the science behind the perception of time between children and adults. After hearing the explanation, the color commentator pauses and asks, "Am I gonna feel any better?"
Andy Pages then smashes a dinger into space, thus ending the existential crisis on commentary.
