As a child of the eighties, my life revolved around things like Rainbow Brite, New Kids On the Block, crimped hair, She-Ra and a game called Simon. If you weren't a part of the Simon generation, it was this giant plastic round memory that consisted of four large colored buttons — red, blue, green and yellow. The game would start by lighting up one color, and you'd repeat it back, and then a longer, more difficult color sequence would ensue. When you messed up, the game would be over. There was also a multi-player option, but because I was usually "borrowing" the game from my sis, I opted for me vs. Simon.

To pay tribute to one of my favorite games from the past, I've downloaded the free I Say iPhone App. In a nutshell, I Say is Simon for the iPhone, except with cool new sound effects and prettier colors.

She-Ra was just He-Man in a dress, but if that's what you're into....
Does this exist for us types that use our phone for a phone, and our computer as something to run apps?
1Best. Game. Ever. I don't know where I put my Simon game but now I really want to play it...
2this makes me want an iphone for reals
3I remember that game. So entertaining:P
4Is this a new app? The G1 already has this app, but they call it 'Kevin' instead, guess it is because of copyright laws or something. But that's cool that the iphone finally has a 'Simon Says' type of app.
BTW, I love Rainbow Brite! I wish I could get the stuffed doll of her but they are so expensive on ebay!
5i had the rainbow brite doll when i was younger. cried til no end til my mom had to buy it for me. then i got bored, and drew on her face. i was such a brat.
