Right, I remember living through the videogame "crash". As a kid, I had no idea about it; I just wanted to get my hands on anything computer or game-related, and only learned that the market "dried up" and so on maybe a decade later...all that stuff only mattered to companies and traders - not one person I knew in the target demo knew or GAF about any of this so-called "crash".
This. I think we got an atari 2600nduring the crash because it was cheaper and more affordable.
Oh, yeah, that's a fun one that I hadn't considered and was recently mentioned in the Atari 50 interactive documentary thing (which is great). Some of the developers point out that people were buying so many Atari games after the crash but a lot of developers had moved on, so the few people still making new Atari software became weirdly viable and sought out.
