A few years ago, Bop It commercials were all over. With multiple versions of the toy, it was doing well. I don't know about you guys, but it was pretty lame to me at first. It was technically my sisters, but barely being able to get 120 while my sister got 250 was infuriating me. It was thrown in our magical time capsule closet with the other ancient pieces and didn't surface until last Sunday. A friend was over and we started getting competitive. We ended up breaking the record about four times with me ending it at 324.
Did you guys own the toy and have any fun with it or did you see the lame looking ads and just blow it off?
Holy crap, nostalgia blast. I remember playing that for hours until my mom finally took it away, because it was so annoyingly loud. :(
I also got BopIt Extreme, which managed to be EVEN LOUDER AND MORE OBNOXIOUS.

We have BopIt Extreme 2. The even more obnoxious version of BopIt Extreme. :3
Holy intercourse ing poop.
I used to play the poop out of that thing. I can't really remember my scores though.
Also, SOCK EM BOPPERS.
Between the Bop It Guy and the guy in the Perfection commercial, the ground was paved for the likes of Billy Mays and Vince Offer.
Yes, I loved Bop It. That and Sock Em Boppers, a toy so awesome, they used the late 80's/early 90's ad for as long as it sold.

Yes. But there were volume controls. Although medium was pushing it sometimes. And when you lost it was even louder and more obnoxious than possible. It's like "DUDE YOU SUCK YOUR SCORE WAS 57"
I only had Top-It :(

I think I remember those...vaguely. What did they look like?
Nostalgiagasm. I came. Used to love those things.
Bop it and Bop it extreme. (What the hell was it called again?)
Anyway, I always tried to cut myself after trying it for an hour; I wasn't very successful with it. I blame the toy and not my reflexes! >: I mean, come on. They obviously sent me a broken one or something that can't respond to my amazing reflexes.
Oh my god, I freaking love Bop It. It gets irritating as hell after a while, but my god is it fun.
...I can see a commercial with Billy Mays advertising it now.

Same. But I mastered it. I had two... >.>
I had a Bop-It pen. It was a smaller version of the original Bop-It with Pull It being the pen part. Best pen ever until Twist It kinda broke D:

BILLY MAYS HERE WITH BOP IT! WANT TO ANNOY YOUR FAMILY?! WANT TO FIND OUT HOW SLOW YOUR FLABBY PIECES OF SHIT YOU CALL HANDS REALLY ARE? WANT TO PLAY SOMETHING THAT REQUIRES 12 GODDAMN BATTERIES?! THEN TRY BRAND NEW BOP IT! IT'S THE MOST FUN YOU'LL HAVE EVER.

I had one like that this year. I brought it and to school and everyone loved it. Only a sub yelled at me to shut up and stop playing with it. D: then the arms broke. ;_;
Bop it now reminds me of Technologic. I blame Riosan for this -_-
But yeah, Bop It was amazing. I had Bop It and Bop It Extreeeeeeeeeeeme. I dunno how you get like 150/250, I only got in the 60s.

Cannot unhear. :(
I couldn't do Bop it when it got to be based on the sounds only. I wasn't familiar with them all. :(
Bop It Extreme was really fun until it stopped recognizing the Flick It or whatever that green one was.
Sock 'Em Boppers though, oh man. There was this party at this girls house for the high school girls swim team, and being captain of the guys team, it was kind of necessary that I go. Freshmen girls all just started going at me with those gosh darn Sock 'Em Boppers. Eventually I got ahold of both and punched the poop out of people, then gave one to anyone who wanted to challenge me.
Some girl punched me in the nose so hard that it deflated the Sock 'Em Bopper. I am never playing with such a deathtrap again.

I always wanted some of those, but I figured they'd probably pop fairly quickly.
OH GOD! I REMEMBER THOSE!
Those were awesome. I had Bop it Extream. I played with that thing all the time. We used to get giant family parties and everybody would participate. What good fun!
I broke it when I bop'd it a bit too hard. :(

I used to love those things! Then me and my brother started throwing them and hit some lights, causing them to go out. So my mom threw them out. :(
Bop It was pretty fun, too.

The bop it option would be sexual abuse then. It's potentially punching your partner in the stomach. D:

ME
I still have in my house...the hardest part about it was changing game modes, not the actual games.
I never had such. I was not a privileged enough child for silly toys like that.
I did, however, pull Kerplunk! from my shelf of board games and the like the other day, only to find out it was missing the marbles.
Do I remember it...?

I couldn't remember my old score on the bopit. Also, I hadn't played for so long it forgot my high score. WHY?

I'm guessing so. That's happened to so many things, including Wii remotes...
But, then again, I learned in my electronics class that batteries do have a shelf life. So, they're actually draingin themselves due to the fact you can't completely stop the chemical reaction that generates the electricity. But, what I wonder is how they drained so darn fast...
I used to play that as a kid sometimes.
Also, Simon was another one.
