Podcast Episode 021 - The Great Video Game Crash Part 3

We cover
the severe correction of the arcade market. We also go into why the correction
happened, and how it was not a crash. We also go into how this is independent
from the home market crash. It went from 8.9 billion to 4 billion over a two
years. We also go over some of the myths surrounding the crash, such as the
E.T. dump, and discuss why Nintendo's business practices were essential to
reviving the home market. Finally we discuss the likelihood of another crash in
the future.
