Dear Reader:
Take a trip back through time with a gallery of Toys R' Us gaming displays from 1999/2000
I purchased an album full of photographs of a NJ location of Toys R Us in 1999 and 2000, and I wanted to scan them and share them with the world! Photos like these seem very hard to come by, so I wanted to make sure they were preserved. pic.twitter.com/ApNJmaJ6f4

Who doesn't love a good bit of nostalgia? If you were a kid in the late 90s/early 2000s, you'll likely feel a warm rush looking through the pictures in the tweet above.
As the Twitter user says, they purchased an album on eBay that was chock-full of pictures showcasing the gaming promotional displays at a Toys R' Us. You get a little bit of everything in that picture, including some SNES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, N64, and Playstation merch. It really does make you miss the days of Toys R' Us and retail being the only place to buy games!
The above pictures are just the start though, as there's a whole collection of photos from the album to sift through. You can find all the other pics here.
