Dec 3, 2008 - If you won't play real games, why not put the controller down and watch Metal Gear Solid 4 for the evening?

Dec 3, 2008 - Because I was born in 1984, and didn't start playing video games until 1991 or 1992, I don't know too much about the video game crash. Can anybody tell me if the video game crash effected any other countries other than the US? I ask this because I live in Australia.

aztecsword12 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - It commonly called the "North American Video Game Crash", so I assume it only majorly affected the US and possibly Canada or Mexico.

Dec 3, 2008 - I'm glad Atari lost all that money after all the money my parents spent on Pac-Man and E.T.

Dec 3, 2008 - since you listed some alternate names for the event in your description, I thought I'd bring this one up: apparently, Japan refers to it as the "Atari Shock", or at least that's what I saw on the Japanese Wiki.

Dec 3, 2008 - You people are retards if you think that, we all know he's a nerd who likes to prove it on youtube, but he doesn't review bad games.

gaarax9 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - WOW Atari was really being retarded back then.

bookfound Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - There are still poorly made games today.*Sigh*

hectorfosho22 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - thanks dude that was awesome

Entertainmentwf Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - I agree. Actually I personally think there are less original games out there today. There are companies that do make very creative games today but they just get overshadowed by the unoriginal super graphiced ones.

bookfound Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - It does not help that most of the creative games are never officially released outside of Japan.

MagnaLynx21 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - Ah yes Nintendo saved the industry in 1983 and now have killed it in 2008 :(

skipskops Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - Interesting, you know I never even knew there was a video game crash, it just seems so weird when you think on it now just how successfull the majority of games are. Yet everything went stupid wrong back then because of one companies idiocy!

deondavis5 Says:

vigo894 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - I was 7 in 1983. Funny thing is, the first time I ever heard of the Video Game Crashof 1983 was on the Internet less than 2years ago. I was looking up video gamerelated topics on Wikipedia. I think Istill have an E.T. Atari video game in abox in my house.
