Lost Childhood Memories to Restore · 1:49am Oct 9th, 2023
Hello Everypony, ScarFox9700 here
By now, I'm sure that a number of you have read my story "A Nostalgic Restaurant", where a human from Earth revives the old Food Avenue Express/Target Cafe Restaurants in Equestria, and after writing this story, it began to make me think, what if other Humans revived other childhood memories in Equestria? I already had a few ideas for this
1. A young inventor/toymaker goes to Equestria to bring back Toys R' Us
2. An aspiring film student goes to Equestria to revive the most famous video store of all time, Blockbuster
3. a Nostalgic human goes to Equestria to bring back the original McDonald's Play-Places, outdoor playgrounds, and the famous "McDonald's-Land", (with the blessing of the Golden Arches of course)
4. An avid photographer revives the Kodak Company in Equestria
5. An unlucky guy accidentally wins the rights to Sears Roebuck and Co. (Sears), in a poker game, and is now the new owner of the company........which by this point consists of exactly 1 x Sears store in California (which has all but closed down, and is pretty barren), an adjoining warehouse (pretty much empty), 2 x 18-wheelers, and 2 x Sears delivery trucks (all old, and worn out), a connected Sears Auto Shop (closed down about 5 years before the story starts), and a small sort of office building (also pretty run down, and filled with miscellaneous junk, and old Sears memorabilia). The new owner laments his bad fortune, having no idea what to do with the Sears Company, now little more than a small business in a single (nearly foreclosed on) location, with crumbling assets. Until he gets the brilliant idea to rebuild the company in Equestria, as the Ponies don't have internet yet, making online shopping impossible at the moment, which prevented Amazon from setting up shop there. It was the perfect company, for the perfect market
Aside from these 5 ideas though, I was wondering, do any of you have any childhood memories that you would like to see revived in Equestria? If so, then feel free to tell me in the comments section below
I'd introduce legislation banning Equestrian railroads from EVER abandoning the caboose on the end of freight trains.
These are all great ideas; I say go for it.
I got two ideas.
1. Somehow bring back Deal or No Deal, (most likely not happening unless character has the money to do it or etc.)
2. THE Wii

Eh, I meant more of a company rather than a concept, but that's a fair point. I never got to see a caboose at the end of an active freight train
5749654
Hmm.
1. I don't really know a lot about this show, as I never watched it
2. Oh yeah. Whatever happened to the Wii anyway? It just kinda disappeared
5749660
1. understandable
2. it got old, but I don't think it became obsolete; All I know is when I had my Wii, it just stopping showing anything, I know it still works cause the indicator for it still works, it just won't appear on the tv screen on anything for some reason. The Wii had everything man.

Yeah
And that's really weird that it still works, but yet it doesn't
I wanna see both ToysR'Us and Blockbuster in Equestria!

Hello CortezDude,
And those were my top 2 ideas I was considering, though now I just need to figure out a storyboard for them, and figure out how the story will play out
5750637
Can't wait to see how it can play!
5750646
Yeah, me too

I hope the Toys'R'Us one is the first one that you will write, ScarFox.

Well, first I have to come up with a good idea for it. Something to flesh out what I laid out in the listing for the story
5762930
I hope you will, ScarFox. I hope you will.
5762931
Yeah, me too
