Top 10 Things Gen Alpha Would Most Likely Be Nostalgic About

The Top Ten
Skibidi Toilet

Kids born since 2012 would feel nostalgic for this.

Skibidi Toilet became popular in mid-2023.

IShowSpeed

This lunatic's shenanigans seem to be popular with the young and unruly Gen Alpha brigade.

Baby Shark - Pinkfong

It's no surprise since it's the most viewed video on YouTube, even surpassing the world's population. It's a kids' song released in 2016 but climbed up in relevance a few years later after its release. Not only kids but adults would join the trend, imitating the dance moves.

Most annoying song of all time.

Cocomelon

Currently, it's the most subscribed kid's YouTube channel. So long as it continues to be relevant, it can sum up a large part of future generations' childhood memories.

The Amazing Digital Circus
ROBLOX Roblox Corporation is an American video game developer based in San Mateo, California. Founded in 2004 by David Baszucki and Erik Cassel, the company is the developer of Roblox, which was released in 2006. As of June 30, 2021, Roblox Corporation employed 1,234 people.

So many young children seem to be quite interested in games on Roblox over traditional video games.

I think Roblox, Fortnite, FNF, Minecraft (to an extent), and Brawl Stars will be seen with much nostalgia in the future.

Most of Gen Z are familiar with the platform and it is even considered nostalgic by a few late millennials due to its release in the mid-2000s. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, ROBLOX peaked in its activity in 2020 and may continue to stay relevant today, alongside Minecraft.

Ice Spice

Gen Alpha has a terrible taste in music. All she does is shake her ass, and her singing sucks.

TikTok

TikTok became very popular in early 2020. I would say Gen Alpha would be nostalgic for early 2020 and onwards. So yes, they would truly feel nostalgic for TikTok, which has been a trend since 2020.

TikTok especially peaked during the COVID-19 pandemic and will possibly continue to be relevant until another social media platform replaces its popularity. With the number of kids and teens on TikTok, it's no doubt that it will be talked about in the future, especially challenges originating from the platform.

Hazbin Hotel Hazbin Hotel is an American adult animated musical comedy series created by Vivienne "VivziePop" Medrano. It revolves around Charlie Morningstar, demon and princess of Hell, on her quest to find a way for other demons to be "rehabilitated" and allowed into Heaven, so she opens a rehabilitation hotel... read more

Hazbin Hotel became popular around late 2020.

Helluva Boss Helluva Boss is an American adult animated web series created by Vivienne "VivziePop" Medrano. It revolves around the misadventures of the employees of I.M.P., an assassination company in Hell. The pilot was released on November 25, 2019, while the first episode of the first season was released on October... read more

Helluva Boss became popular around late 2020.

The Contenders
YouTube Kids

Too many parents have been lazily handing their children iPads and phones in public, and all you can hear is the ear-piercing sound of YouTube videos and CoCoMelon radiating from a small, black box.

Not only the kids' videos in general, but due to the amount of Elsagate videos flooding the platform, this is definitely one of the apps that will stick in Gen Alpha's memories because of its obscene content, potentially traumatizing some of the children using this app.

Minecraft

Minecraft is one of the most mentioned video games when it comes to Gen Z nostalgia. Due to its continuous release dates and spin-offs, it would probably sum up a huge part of Gen Alpha's childhood and possibly future generations later on.

One of the few good things mentioned in this list.

Quandale Dingle
Among Us

It peaked in the mid to late year of 2020 and is still a bit relevant today. Who knows, it could be much more relevant if Among Us 2 were to be released?

This game was popular in the early 2020s. Yes, I can see by 2040 what Gen Alpha wants.

Friday Night Funkin'

It became prevalent right when Adobe Flash Player died out in 2020 and continued to be relevant until mid-2021. Although its relevance has stooped recently, we might see a resurgence from more people talking about it years later.

Popular in 2021. So this video game has been the home to childhoods of kids born 2012-2014 because 2021 was their core childhood.

Grand Theft Auto VI
Dream (YouTuber)

Despite his personality outside YouTube, most people root for his content along with his associates. It's pretty predictable that Dream could be mentioned a few years later even when the limelight starts to fade off from him.

Bluey

Most kids born in 2009 and after would likely be nostalgic for this.

Vyond
Zoom

I totally forgot to add this one (thank you to whoever included this here). Pretty much every Gen Alpha person used Zoom during the pandemic, which is unfortunately daunting for some. If anything, Zoom would definitely leave a bad memory on some, or otherwise, depending on their experience.

Five Nights at Freddy's
Fortnite: Battle Royale

Not a surprising fact due to its popularity as a battle royale game. A lot of kids still play this game to this day.

Anyone born since 2009 would feel nostalgic for Fortnite.

Nintendo Switch

Anyone born since 2005 would feel nostalgic for this.
