Hey guys. I'm sorry for not making a post in a while. It's because i have been trying to make a post about modern gaming, but i had no ideas. So, i'm going to do something about oldschool gaminng instead, and that is the history of gaming.
It first started with arcade games
Arcade games are very simple: Insert coin, play game, insert another coin. That is pretty simple. And being the start of gaming, it hosts some classics like Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and even Pacman. However, during the 80's and 90's, home consoles and computers started taking center stage. Let's start with computers:
However, back in 1989, SEGA launched the SEGA genesis, witch was their 16-bit console. In 1991, when Nintendo launched the SNES, SEGA launched Sonic the Hedgehog, and soon after, the 16-bit console wars were started. After that, SEGA made the SEGA Saturn and SEGA Dreamcast. But their consoles just could not stay afloat on the market, so they started putting their games on other company's consoles, like Sony's Playstation, Microsoft's Xbox, and even Nintendo consoles!
Back in 1989(Again), Nintendo made the Gameboy, witch was the very first Portable cosole ever. It went on to inspire other gameboys, witch are: Gameboy pocket, Gameboy color, Gameboy advance and Gameboy advance SP. The Gameboy advance SP also went on to inspire the DS, 3DS, 3DS XL, new 3DS, and new 3DS XL.
Then in 2017, Home consoles combined with handheld consoles, to create the Nintendo Switch
Well, that was the history of gaming. Hope you enjoyed.
