Toy Style and Concept
Bop It's overall aesthetic draws mainly from hip-hop and club culture. The game uses a breakbeat to keep the players on a rhythm, and the instructions are almost like dance commands. The announcer that narrates every game is a highly energetic "dude" sort of personality, and one of the game's signatures is the exuberant "OW!" sound that occurs when a player loses the round.

Famous quotes containing the words toy, style and/or concept:
“I did toy with the idea of doing a cook-book.... The recipes were to be the routine ones: how to make dry toast, instant coffee, hearts of lettuce and brownies. But as an added attraction, at no extra charge, my idea was to put a fried egg on the cover. I think a lot of people who hate literature but love fried eggs would buy it if the price was right.”
—Groucho Marx (1895–1977)
“A style does not go out of style as long as it adapts itself to its period. When there is an incompatibility between the style and a certain state of mind, it is never the style that triumphs.”
—Coco Chanel (1883–1971)
“To find the length of an object, we have to perform certain
physical operations. The concept of length is therefore fixed when the operations by which length is measured are fixed: that is, the concept of length involves as much as and nothing more than the set of operations by which length is determined.”
—Percy W. Bridgman (1882–1961)
