Ninteties?
Either a genuine spelling error or an attempted portmanteau between "Nintendo" and "nineties", I'll guess?
For me Mighty Morphin Power Rangers really stands out as a symbol of the 90's. About a million things come to mind (movies, TV shows, popular snacks of the era, music, clothing styles), but the first thing I think of is the Green Ranger
The bad ass Mortal Kombat soundtracks that introduced me to the likes of Napalm Death, Fear Factory, and Sevendust.
And Buckethead!

For card games you have MTG, Spellfire, Wyvern, Jyhad, and a zillion other copycats.

Well it all started when I got that pre-built Water deck with Gyarados, I just kept building that deck with cards that I got from booster packs until it was fucking sweet.
I think down the road I ended up getting the one that came with Mewtwo and used that as my second one.
