The Turtles first came to life in a black and white comic book in the early 80s but it wasn’t until 1988 that the cartoon reached TV sets.

1991 – Sega GameGear
The Sega GameGear was the poor relation of Nintendo’s Game Boy and the Sega MegaDrive but it had a healthy if shortlived existence.

1994 – PlayStation
A fixture in every single bloke’s living room, PlayStation took video games from being the preserve of children and turned them into post-Yuppie fashion accessories.

1997 – Tamagotchi
The Japanese introduced this craze to Britain during National Pet Week. The small plastic eggs with a screen and control buttons was your very own loveable pet to keep alive as long as possible.
