70's
"ATARI 2600" of the Atari Co. was put on the market in the United States in 1977 when high economic growth was advanced by Japan. It might be good ..becoming.. with a prototype all the video game machines

80's                                             

The history became it in full scale in around 1983 though it was a game that became
a technology of which Japan boasted only now. "Family computer " that Nintendo developed appears there.
"Game Boy" of a portable game machine (Nintendo) is put on the market when becoming the latter half of 80's.  It is a starting point of the Game Boy series. It is the strongest portable game in the world.

Present game market

A lot of video games are put on the market as we have seen.
However, it only becomes disadvantageous for the enterprise if soft doesn't sell even if video game sells. Therefore, a lot of enterprises enter the game market, and the withdrawal is done through necessity.

The video game market in Japan became one large industry that reached one trillion yen in 2000.

And, a present game market is a three-sided battle of Sony computer entertainment (SCEI), Nintendo, and Microsoft.

Software has evolved from a past cassette type to CD and DVD, too. DVD came to be shown on the function side. Moreover, "Online gaming" was born in the video game by having advanced by making of the Internet broadband, too.



At  the  end.
This time, there were a lot of oneself and learnt whats in the examination of the history of the video game.
Especially, I still think observable to be a speed of evolution.

It is not possible to start for 70 years, and to hide one's surprise as a market where terrible evolution has been accomplished for 30 years. However, it is a broadband age of the future. Where does the video game pass the performance and the ability of the personal computer?
