I'd call it nostalgic. Let the battle begin.

Sega Genesis vs Nintendo 64

This battle is practically playing Smash Bros. Brawl and having a Sonic/Mario beatdown.

Oh, I am also referring to the games not consoles.

Mortal Kombat, Sonic, Barbie Super Model, Ecco the Dolphin, Power Rangers, Stargate…took up many people’s time, including mine.
Nintendo, however, always came up with good games too. Goldeneye, Super Mario, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Zelda, Snowboard Kids were just as fun.

I call it a tie.

Dawg vs Home Skillet

“Sup dawg!”
“Jus’ chillin’ home skillet.”

Yeah, that’s what simple conversations sound like in 90’s slang…that think you’re cool, but you are totally not radical in any way. SNAP!

Sorry, don’t mean to offend. Cut me some slack, bro. Ok…done. They both should be burned in the fiery pits of Mordor. Putting in some nerd there.

Harry Potter vs Chronicles of Narnia

Even if I only used the books, Harry Potter would still win. Curse you, J.K. Rowling. Though, the Chronicle movies don’t have anything on Daniel Radcliffe.

My vote would be Chronicles of Narnia. The books were just that entertaining. But, I’m trying to look at all sides, thus, Harry wins…the Quidditch Cup!

Furby vs Beanie Babies

Furbies = Creepy, insane killer

While getting high, the inventor was probably watching Gremlins. It shouldn’t be able to talk and open those crazy, bulging eyes.

Chucking them out the window and burying it in your backyard is not a bad idea. I did it and so can you.

Titanic vs Sleepless in Seattle

I don’t care if Sleepless in Seattle is a classic. It’s too cheesy for me.

At least Titanic had something other than romance in it. Also, it’s slightly factual. If they didn’t have the fake couple Jake and Rose, how else would they reel in chick flick watchers and make it a box office record?

They wouldn’t. Go Titanic!

Poor iceburg…and steel and iron mass.

TMNT vs Power Rangers

More freakishly weird? mutated turtles
More cheesy matching costumes? go go power rangers

Sure, watching Power Rangers made almost every kid buy a Ranger costume for Halloween. Yet, the fights and cliches almost drown you in lameness. “You ooze you lose!” aimed toward Ivan Ooze.

How many backflips does it take a Power Ranger to get its enemy?
5-10…billion

TMNT…mutations+ninjas+Michaelangelo= WIN

Friends vs Seinfeld

Success Scale just broke. Friends is to fat…as in PHAT.

I apologize. A little. Anyway, I thought Seinfeld was funnier. Also, it didn’t make thousands of viewers angry by making a suspense like Rachel and Ross last for a lifetime. Kudos Seinfeld.

But, Friends fans overpopulate the Seinfeld ones. Friends would be like China whereas Seinfeld would be Australia. Poor Kangaroos. I was rooting for you.

Friendship Charms vs Toe Rings

This is too easy. Easy as pie. Which doesn’t make sense…it should be easy as addition, or easy as drawing stick figures. Anyway, Friendship charms are still spectacular. Toe Rings just hurt.

Plus, do many people like looking at toes? um. no.

Friendship Charms just owned Toe Rings.

Toe Rings, go back to you plastic holders in the quarter machines. DO IT.

Pac-Man vs Ms. Pac Man

The arcade games, that is, but we can get all battle of the sexes if you want to. Both are rad because they were of the few video games at that time that didn’t involve shooting crap.

But do you know the differences? And the story behind the Ms. Pac-Man game especially?

Yes, he is wearing a smiley face shirt, and it is tucked in.

Nsync vs Backstreet Boys

Who’s more talented?

Round 1: Dancing- Nysnc
Round 2: Singing- Backstreet Boys
Round 3: Doesn’t exist for boy bands

Personally, I’d like Backstreet Boys to kick Nysnc like Christiano Renaldo kicks a soccer ball. Maybe, some bias takes place because Kevin is the most gorgeous man alive.

Still, if you look at the success of Nysnc individually, it fares far better than Backstreet Boys. Justin Timberlake is like Jesus…in a musical way. J.C. is on America’s Best Dance Crew. Lance is famous for his “I’M GAY!” deal.

Family Feud vs Supermarket Sweep

Watching Family Feud can make you as mad as when you watch Jeopardy. You scream at the t.v. knowing the answer, while the contestant just bums along and says something like…

“Name an animal with three letters in its name.” “Frog.”

Yeah, that really happened. Punching a t.v. is a bad idea though.

Supermarket Sweep made me slightly calmer. You might just want people to actually run in the aisle, not dainty glide so you don’t look weird on camera. Seeing this, they win. It also needs to come back.

Digimon vs Pokemon

The animated world doesn’t need rounds to tell the winner of these two.

Gotta catch em all, Pokemon! Can someone even name a Digimon for me? If you can, just…congrats.
Really though, if there is a stapler of you (i’m talking to you Bulbasaur), then you have pretty much toppled the awesome scale.

Britney Spears vs Christina Aguilera

Round One: Popularity- Britney
Round Two: Sanity- Christina
Round Three: Talent- Christina
Round Four: Comeback- Britney

This is really difficult. Obviously, judging on the actual ability to sing would go to Aguilera. Britney’s voice has been mutated so many times she sounds like E.T. dying.
But Britney is I guess you could say, better. She has hair. If you call someone a womanizer, you start singing the chorus in your head.

Of course, if you look strictly at the past, then you might like Britney more. She wasn’t better, but she was pretty and nice. I sound like a Middle school talking about her crush. BLEHHHH

Tie?

This is asking for an elbow smash to the ribcage.

Easy Bake Oven vs Snoopy Sno Cone Machine

Never fear, Easy Bake Oven is here! To all you people that can’t cook, life just got a little easier. You, however, can only eat miniature brownies and cakes. HUZZAH! Thanks Hasbro.

In the left corner…SNOOPY! Sno Cones are fun, but how much flavored ice can you have? Enough to fill three paper cups! That’s what came in the box.

Using to many exclamation points…Easy Bake Oven wins.

Dippin Dots vs Candy Necklaces

Holy freakin dip! Dippin Dots are expensive! But they are delicious. And spacey looking…ice cream of the future.

Candy necklaces may be el cheapo, but don’t wear it on a hot day and expect to eat it later. Or do…because sweaty hard candy sounds DANDY! Yum.

Your taste buds just called. They want Dippin Dots.

Keds vs Converse

Converse started before Keds, and they will probably keep on going after Keds die out. They are just that good.

Despite the numerous celebrities who pop up to be original by wearing Keds (coughMischaBartoncough), almost every different group of people wear Converse. Skaters, nerds, basketball players, preps, kids, teens, adults…it doesn’t matter.

The Matrix vs. New Star Wars

Both the first Matrix movie and Episode I premiered the same year. The Matrix was a sleeper hit. The Phantom Menace broke records, despite being a lackluster production. In the years that followed, both Matrix sequels failed to live up to the height of the first one. The Star Wars sequels (Episode II and III) got progressively better, though not vast improvements.

I’d give it to Star Wars.
