Back in the 80s a lot of companies that had nothing to do with electronics or entertainment got into making video games. Most had no idea what they were doing.

We are experiencing that now as well. A bunch of career executives hear that the video game market is a trillion dollar industry and come on over trying to apply their "spreadsheet math" to this market only for it to fail. They don't understand the market and flood it with trash because of that.

Yes, the market being flooded with low quality garbage caused both video game crashes; the 1979 and 1983 one. Guess they didn't learn their lesson the first time.

Third times the charm? I just hope that if we do get a crash it won't impact many indie devs.
