I had Mousetrap and Twister, and I was born in 1991. 70s kids my eye.

Adverts on the BBC? What!

[MrMattyvibes]

@nickylx Point understandable yes, but there were no videogames in the 70's. In the 90's you had Mousetrap, etc AND videogames. U see?

[MrMattyvibes]

@ReeceDogg100 Yes agreed. His point was that there were no videogames in the 70's.

As you say, of course there is Mousetrap around past,& present but ultimately there were no videogames in the 70's.

i always felt sorry for the mouse

[ReeceDogg100]

Mousetrap is still played by some kids today (2012). I (think) it is still popular but not AS popular as the 70s like Rhod says.

@nickylx that's all we had, which is the point

[MrMattyvibes]

@Roronoa2zoro They're joking. Comedians tell jokes don't they? >.>

@TheLinz78 We also had something called 'the outside' back in those days. It involved putting on a jacket and sometimes gloves when it was called and opening the front door, stepping through into a whole new world. I am an '80 kid, but I don't really remember any boardgames, because I was always outside in the forest or down the street.
