Generations don't change within decades. Generation X starts back farther than the '80s.

Oh THAT DK'94.  I like that game.  I've just never heard it called that.

And I figured Picross went in the "else" category, but I had to say it anyway.

I thought this current generation is called the iGeneration, or was it MyGeneration? Something like that. It has to do with either the iPod or MySpace.
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

I heard that the generation born after 1995 are the "Millenium kids". That's the furthest I know of. iGeneration would be a cool name for the generation afterwards, though.

Anyway, I don't think I've contributed to this topic yet, so I might as well post something. I was born in 1993, so I got to experience the late 90's. I remember watching stuff like Pokemon, Digimon (which, IMO, was far better than pokemon), Powerpuff girls, Dexter's Labortory, Cow and Chicken and other shows. I wasn't too much into console gaming other than watching my cousin play Crash Bandicoot among other Playstation games ( I honestly thought that Playstation was a Nintendo console). I did have my trusty Game Boy with games like Space Invaders and Kirby's Dreamlad 2 among others. Those were good times.

I'd prefer to call this generation One Messed Up Generation, but whatever.

I think they haven't come up with a name for it yet.
I sure hope they don't.
That was a joke.

That's our current decade. I think that, in a sense, Generation Y ended on 9/11 because it completely changed a lot of attitudes towards a lot of things. Before that, everyone was sort of cocky; after 9/11, a lot of people were either somber because of the tragedy, thinking no one was allowed to have fun because of it, or completely freaking paranoid and over-patriotic, driving to Wal-Mart in an armored red, white and blue Humvee to buy supplies to stockpile in their basement because the terror scale was red, or something. What I hated most about that was, it wasn't sort of fun, not-really-paranoid paranoia, like with the Y2K bug burninating the world.

MyPod? ISpace? MISpace? YPod?

None of those "words" have generation in them, so no.
Remember that your first Goomba boldly you walk? When Mario touched that mushroom being brought up more largely remember that you are surprised? Miscalculate your jump that pit remember that it falls?

There were these barbies...Generation girls. I can't remember if they were from the 90's or not. But it was in a time when I still like Barbie Dolls. I think the gravestone of that girl went something like "PtPeach: Barbie Lover 1993-2004"

Yeah, I remember when wrestling was awesome back in the '90s and even the early '00s.  I stopped watching because everything went to crap.  Then I turned on RAW after all these months only to discover Donald Trump is fighting Vince McMahon in a hair vs hair match at Wrestlemania.  Weird crap, man.
I always figured "Time to tip the scales" was Wario's everyday motto.

Actually, I know people who would probably pay to see that match.

TMK was started in the '90s, if no one has said that yet.

Really? I always thought it was started circa 2001, for no particular reason. But this cements the '90s's ('90s'? 9'0z?) reputation as being the best decade since the 1670s. The 1670s were really awesome.
