TCW 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.   Space Invaders Arcade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=437Ld_rKM2s   Asteroids Arcade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYSupJ5r2zo   Pac Man Arcade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dScq4P5gn4A   Chase the Chuck Wagon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhdW3RCioLM   US Games - Space Jockey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YBcVR4dF08   Atari Game Over Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wjMn6yjOjQ   VS Duck Hunt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qtf1FUp-0jo   VS Hogan's Alley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuk6QW3HVCA   VS Baseball Nintendo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52TQ7BWBTp0   New episodes on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: [email protected]  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Alex's Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com   Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.
