In fact, the whole thing tanked in two years and resulted in only two games.Īfter video game sales tanked in 1983, many retailers decided that video games were just a fad and that the fad was over.
Since you might not have heard of R.O.B., you can probably guess it didn’t work out very well. The robot was in response to the video game market crash of 1983 and was meant to keep the new Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) from being classified as a video game, which would have been a death sentence at the time of its release. We suppose ROB isn’t a very Japanese name. In Japan, apparently, it was the Family Computer Robot. otherwise known as the Robotic Operating Buddy. Too busy playing video games to have a social life? No worries.
