But I feel like people who say that, never really knew how great Flash was or knew where to look for the good stuff. Most of these games were bad, people tend to associate Newgrounds with bad flash games. I kind of grew up with Flash and Shockwave being this new multimedia experience for low end computers - if you were poor and say, didn't own a console like a PS2, Dreamcast or a high end PC with a graphics card, playing Flash/Shockwave games was kind of the next best thing. But these internet plugins, were generally discontinued to close vulnerable security flaws in modern web browsers. There are alternatives like Newgrounds flash player, that will allow flash to continue work within Newgrounds beyond 2020. Similar to Shockwave, Flash will cease to work in modern browsers after 2020. EDIT3: - Really great summary describing why flash was so important with descriptions from notable games and sites (Thanks Darken!) Flash is dying in 2020.
