So the rules are pretty loose on this.

Basically if you could source certain items or media into a room together, things that were all particularly nostalgic to you - what would go in there?

It could have particular retro games consoles, loaded with particular games, plugged into the CRT TV you used to have in your bedroom.

It could have your old family PC loaded with MSN Messenger and Limewire, or access to old forums.

It could have certain albums on CD / cassette / vinyl played through your parents’ old hifi.

Maybe certain films you had taped on VHS and watched a million times, and the adverts you always remember in-between.

Perhaps certain meals, snacks, drinks laid out. Maybe ones you can’t buy anymore.

Certain items of furniture… certain wallpapers… certain aromas or perfumes… old toys…

Nothing is too old or too recent as long as it’s nostalgic for you personally. And things don’t have to all come from the same era, they can be mix and match.

What goes in your personal nostalgia room?

    A fridge full of Snapple elements, jolt cola in the battery shaped tall cans, a computer running EverQuest 2 release edition. A Commodore 64 with all my old sneakernet disks, a pinball machine, arcade wizard of war, and moon patrol. TV playing all of the original TMNT series, original VHS Star Wars, a crate of ninja turtle fruit pies from hostess, a crate of fruit stripe gum, and a pool table. Think that would be perfection.
