Ok this was something else!

I recorded songs from the radio onto cassettes but downloading games!? Haha I guess Africa was a little bit behinds on the technology you western citizens had a lot of fun. Damn it!

Damn y’all were lucky. I only recalling getting silly squishy toys in cereal boxes or key holders and that stuff. Girls magazines would come with mirrors, combs, hair holders and the likes.

As for boys magazines? There were none. Just comics.

Also those computer/video game magazines were pretty pricey. You’d look at them and turn the other way. Parents would actually frown if you pointed at them. Tough times hahaha

Edit: We did play video games though, I recall walking some kilometres to exchange catridges. The 90s were something else!

I did the same thing. If there was a new song on the radio that I liked, I immediately recorded it.
