QotW: What’s a product/trend/store from your childhood that you wish would come back?
My answer's gotta be Blockbuster Video. As a 90's kid, I'd get out of school Friday afternoon and my mom would take me straight to Blockbuster so I could try to rent a good NES or SNES game before they were all gone. If it was an rpg, like Earthbound or Lufia 2, I'd have to hope I got the same cartridge as the previous week and hope no one had deleted my saved game. Streaming services are certainly more convenient (even if all of their interfaces are straight asscheeks....), but they will never achieve that feeling of stepping into a Blockbuster to pick up games and movies for the weekend.
Your turn!
