Dang, got this e-mail today, looks like none of us have heard of so far; any of you guys ever see this back in the 80s?

That's really cool. I guess it didn't take off because I don't remember it at all. Closest I remember is that gum that had the soda in it like 7-Up and Dr. Pepper.

Yeah I was *wondering* if you had any of that stuff in that massive game-related collection of yours :D

I don't remember those either, of course, I was only a year old when they came out, so... :Dog_Laughing:

I do recall Mario and Zelda candies of all types. I think I had some Pac-Man gum when I was really young, that may be imagined though.

hI,
It's really cool. I do not start because I can not remember. I remember the closest is the gum that had soda in it as Dr Pepper.

Gum with soda in it? I can't recall anything like that, care to elaborate?
