These days, nostalgia is king.
How else can you explain figments of our youth getting modern-day resurrections every so often?
Apart from cyclical fashion items like bell-bottom jeans and chokers, the tech scene has also welcomed a bunch of old-school gadgets — all revived and with good measure.
From Tamagotchis to Polaroid cameras, it’s clear from these gems that old is gold.

7. Tamagotchi 2017
Attention, ‘90s kids: The Tamagotchi 2017 (about $25) is a special 20th anniversary release of Bandai’s popular pet rearing game.
First launched in Japan in 1996, these little critters were a worldwide craze from 1997. Now, the new Tamagotchi will feature the original six characters on a square LCD screen (rather than the original rectangular), sans the helpful icons that line the top and bottom of the screen.
Available on Amazon Japan.
