Podcast Episode 014 - Nintendo: Playing With Power


 


We discuss the state
of the industry after the crash before Nintendo came onto the scene, and the
difficulties in relating with the modern viewpoint to the situation at the
time. We cover how Nintendo entered the US market and set up policies that
would be ridiculous today, but were necessary for the industry to recover and
grow. We cover how as Nintendo grew they were eventually sued for anti-trust,
and price fixing, but were exonerated. Still this led to them easing up on
their control in the early 90's.
