reminder that the "video game crash of 1983” happened in ONE COUNTRY ONLY. the video game industry THRIVED outside the USA in the 80s.

the video game crash isn't real lol you just live in the wrong country

for disclaimer purposes the above tweet is mostly sarcasm out of spite for unitedstatians

but anyway everybody talks about the video game crash like it was a real thing because most youtubers are from the USA and they're indeed rewriting history as pointed out in that thread everyone is having fun clowning on because "buhh banjo kazooie better than croc"

sure there's nuance in that it's more than sales figures that make or break a game but sales figures are real numbers that you can't rewrite with your "top 10 games of the 90s!!" thinkpiece

if those lists were written in brazil winning eleven would be way above castlevania
