The Video Game Crash of 1983 (or the Atari Shock if you are Japanese) is probably the single most influential event in the history of video games as a whole. In this second episode of my Video Games Throughout the Years series, I dedicate my time to covering it in a lot of detail, and giving my own thoughts and feelings on it.

Awesome video, I'm glad you made this video! I actually own some Atari 2600 games that cause the video game crash of 1983! The games are really terrible I still love my Atari 2600 game console though, it's the longest lasting console to ever last in the gaming market as of 2022. It remains one of my favorite video game consoles of the late 1970s / early 1980s. Anyway, great video pal. Keep up the awesome work pal and keep doing what you do and Keep on gaming! :)

Atari had a lot of shitty games. I've played a bunch of those games myself, it's very calming. And don't forget all the stupid porn games.

@DillonH I disagree, with all due respect, with it not aging well; there's loads of games on it I still play to this day. This is coming from a person who wasn't even alive when it was popular.

@ShadyKitty god I hope the AAA gaming industry crashes. And I hope gaming journalism goes down with them too.
