When I was a little kid, I never set foot inside a Toys R Us because the closest one was too far away. But I saw commercials for them all the time and thought it looked like a cool store. Sometimes they'd advertise costumed characters like Barbie would appear at a certain store. One time they said Donkey Kong would be there, and at first I wanted to go so bad until I figured it was probably some guy in a generic gorilla suit and I decided it wasn't worth the trip after all. When I was in middle school and high school and started to go to malls more, I would go to Toys R Us to get NES and SNES games sometimes. Before they closed down, there were tons of Toys R Us stores around now.
