THE CON50LE 50 YEARS OF HOME VIDEO GAMING
From the earliest consoles of the 1970s to the cutting-edge machines of the here and now, a line is drawn from one man's eureka moment to the multi-billion-dollar global industry of today. All the well-known names and massive-selling consoles are here: the Nintendo Entertainment System, the SEGA Mega Drive, the Atari 2600, the Xbox 360, the PlayStation 2. But there's plenty of room for hardware that many a gamer won't have heard of before, from Japan-only releases and home computer conversions to ill-advised experiments with VHS and all manner of micro-console magic. Learn about the creators and their inspirations, the games that made the biggest consoles' eternal reputations, and the failures and flops along the way.
