Sims 3 Into the Future's Criminally Underrated (And Here's Why I Want It in Sims 4)

Although it wasn't introduced in Into the Future, during SIms 3, it could be introduced in a futuristic pack in SIms 4. It can ba a useful tool for Tiny Living lovers. (P.S.: That All-In-One Bathroom from the picture is from ITF).

Again, they weren't introduced in Into the Future, during SIms 3, but whats more futuristic than games? We could finally get individual arcades and other gaming devices. (P.S.: That Arcade from the picture is from ITF).

Isn't this so cool?! Imagine the possibilities... We could have any electronic games in this pack in SIms 4!
https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/8/87/Holo-Computer2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20131110064927
Another holo-device. We could have lots of other holo-devices like that in this pack in SIms 4!

OK, I admit. This one is just a cool futuristic looking crib, BUT... I, myself, LOVE to play with the whole family from babies to elders to ghosts, but I know some hate playing with babies and find them annoying, but in Sims 4 we could have a futuristic crib that not only looks cool but also helps you with the baby. It could have a holo-screen with fun videos to raise the baby's fun, educative videos to teach skills, as well as a "release" system to let babies and toddlers out without your sim having to go to the room to let your baby out to play with toys. And so on and so forth.

Unlike other beds, the Dream Pod can change a Sim's life by providing a unique dream, which grants the Sim special effects when they wake up. Sims can gain Advanced Technology skill while they are selecting a dream. Dreams can also be shared with other Sims.

Again, elevators weren't introduced in SIMS 3 ITF, but the tube elevatores were. Anyway, in SIms 4 we could FINALLY have proper elevators with all the animations + the tube elevators too. How cool would be that?!

Want something for your sim not waste time cooking?! Here it is. Also, it's multi-purpose functions are tiny living friendly, it renders most of the kitchen appliance obsolete. Also, who'll need Babs L'Amour when you can synthetize any mixological drink in the SAM-7 Drink Synthesizer Unit?!

Its a cool transportation isn't it? And, its better than dissapearing at the edge of the lot.
https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/2/27/Newtonian_Plane_Pool_Table_by_Corebital_Designs.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140814104029
Not first introduced in ITF, but it could be first introduced in this pack in Sims 4. (P.S.: That Pool Table from the picture is from ITF).

Sorry Sims 4 team, but in a game that had the best vampires and spellcasters, you've let anyone who played SIms 3 ITF disappointed with Sims 4's bots. We had SO much customization in Sims 3, we could give unique personalities to each of our bots, we could choose a bunch of different body parts for them, paint them however we wanted, and each one of them would be unique. Sims 4 should've aimed at least to replicate that, or even better: adding that + androids, cyborgs, etc.

Here's an eco-friendly object we could have in SIms 4. It could also add a negative buffer if we had eco-friendly traits, if your sim bathed in regular showers after knowing that there's a sonic shower that doesn't water.
https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/a/ab/Perseus_Astronomical_Telescope_by_Arasika_Industries.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140814104811
Small/regular telescopes were introduced in Sims 3 base game (P.S.: That Telescope from the picture is from ITF), but we have been asking so long for them in Sims 4. This would be the perfect opportunity to add them. Why? Cuz in Sims 3 ITF the Astronomer career was introduced and we could have that in Sims 4 too. This is one of the only two career tracks that Sims can be employed in Oasis Landing, with the other being Bot Arena career. It has two branches, which are Astrophysicist and Space Explorer. Astrophysicist branch requires Logic skill to master, while Space Explorer branch requires Athletic skill to master. We could also have a side-skill with the telescope, and each level of the skill unlocked a new type of celestial body for your sim to discover like nebulas, stars, black holes, etc... And you could win money from finding them and naming them.

And, finally, the time portal... But this could be one of a bunch. Sims 4 seems to still have a feel years of production, so why not a Into the Past pack too?! Cavemans, Castles, and Chtonic Gods from Classical Times...
Other objects from ITF: Futuristic-looking fire pit (we could've a fire proof fire pit/fireplace/stove/etc), cool technological cash register, Dishwasher (WE NEED MORE DISHWASHERS, SIMS 4, YOU PROMISED ME, high-tech easel, guitars, hot tubs, cars, futuristic stoves, swings, toy box, futuristic treadmill, high-tech Weight_machine, and so on and so forth...
SELF-CARE ROUTINE: The "Fitness Watch" and the "Smoothie Blender" could be pleasing additions to this pack, helping your sim to monitor their health while working out and also helping them to be more productive while doing so, maybe even improving the athletic skill faster. Meanwhile, the Smoothie Blender could have a cool looking design and give some buffers to our sims. (The other ideas, like Custom Teas and Herbal Infusions, as well as the Vegan trait and Healthy Life Style aspiration could be added in the Farming EP).
FUN-TECH: Honestly, everything from this ideas could be in the SIMS 4 ITF EP. Simulated Sports Screen, Indoor Cycling Machine and Treadmill with screens, Virtual Puttin Green and Modular Mini-Golf, Void Critter Locator and we even had the "Portable Hologram Best Friend" pet in SIms 3 ITF.
SCIENCE & TECH: Desktop Microscope, STEM Kits, Building Blocks (Children learning futuristic skills by build LEGO robots), Food Science & Kitchen Appliances, Astronomy and Portable Telescope. All of that sound futuristic enoug to me, and we had astronome in Sims 3 ITF.
