Fun fact: the reason the R in KoRn is backwards is a reference to toys R us because multiple band members worked there

Its because they overprice their items

I visited a Toys R Us store in Yokohama, Japan a few months ago. It was packed full of kids. Most kids passing by the store were begging their parents to go in. I was quickly shot back to my childhood walking through it. Besides the Japanese toys it was virtually the same.

I feel that the decline is due to kids these days simply not going to the "toy store". When I was younger, that was the thing. You go to toys r us to see all the exclusive stuff they had. We used to get the catalogs in the mail and I'd make my christmas list from that. It's crazy how things change

Yes its true, kids are more inclined to play mobile games but some of yall act like its the kids fault. But its really the parents. If you ever worked at a preschool or babysat other kids they will definitely stay engaged with toys for longer. I dont think thats the only/main reason for their downfall.... People say "Kids only want to play on phones" like its the kids fault they are addicted to phones or games from a younger age. Lots of parents just dont want to spend the money on toys or clean them up and find it easier to give their kids their phones to keep them busy. Its this pattern that stops families from buying toys. Its not like kids are suddenly not interested in toys anymore or something. If you find a really good interactive toy the kids would love to engage, its the parents who arent giving them this opportunity anymore.

Kids these days just watch grown men play Minecraft all day on their iPads, they never play with toys anymore, let alone go outside

Hell 5 years ago the price of all their items were 10 dollars over the original price, they were a rip off

Why does everything from my childhood get taken away from me?

EVERY time I went to Toys R Us everything seemed SUPER overpriced. Nothing seemed to be competitively priced at all. And it seemed like nothing EVER went on sale, which made this feeling even more real.

When ever I go in a toys R us looking for collectibles, it feels so cold and utilitarian. I can only imagine how this would feel for a kid, the whole things like a toy warehouse, rarely does anything catch your eye or feel special.
