What are your thoughts on this topic?
In general, I feel most '80s/early-mid '90s nostalgia has died in recent years with technology becoming all the rage (i.e. iPhones, Angry Birds, etc.). I remember in 2005 bootlegs of old childhood cartoons were all the rage, too. Has the "nostalgia period" ended?
