I was thinking, What are historians going to look back at us and see? specifically the era of video games. I mean, We've long since past fad status, out grew cult status and even expanded beyond our niches. So, what are historians going to look at when they study us in fifty, or even a hundred year.
Being i am a nintendo fan (been playing since i was 5), i figured i use the different nintendo systems to help break up the time periods. Maybe this is just a "history of nintendo", but that's been done before. I'm looking for more history-terminology like, "Golden Age" and "Renaissance".
So, here is my first attempt. Feel free to edit it as you see fit.
- 1983 - Great Video Game Crash
- 1985 - Nintedo Renissance
- 1990 - Golden Age, Nintendo Dynasty
- 1995 - Silver Age
- 2001 - Dork Age
- 2006 - Second Renaissance
- 2010 - The Era of NIWA .
