i used (and still use) to rub shrink wrap with my fingers until it deteriorated so much it ripped apart, it was so much fun

Did you open the box and stick your nose in it and take a deep wiff of that new game smell?

[-] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 6 months ago

yup, for a more prolonged experience you could also smell the interior of new cars, back when you could actually afford one

Oh yes! It's also so similar to that "new computer smell" when a laptop's fans would kick on for the first time out of the box. I dunno if that's a thing anymore...

That smell is Christmas to me. That was the only time we typically got new NES or Super NES games, and lord I loved that smell of fresh print and plastic.
