What caused the gaming market to nearly completely crash in 1983?
gpt
The gaming market crash of 1983 was caused by several factors--or, as I like to call them, unfixed bugs. There was no quality control, so no one was properly testing the games that companies were releasing. That's already lots of game-overs right out of the gate! The market was also extremely saturated; too many low-quality games being sold at once meant that people weren't willing to press the continue button anymore and stopped buying games. This led to a huge lack of trust between gamers and developers. Video games and consoles were also really expensive. It was like a shopkeeper asking for 10,000 gold coins for a health potion when everyone only had 1,000 after grinding for a week. That's way too much grinding!
