Nintendo is a Japanese company that has tried their hand in several small time niches. Here is a look at the history of the gaming industry and Nintendos dominance. In 1974, Nintendo started their version of home video games with the Magnavox Odyssey which they purchased from Magnavox. I remember this game because I had one and every possible minute I was playing this game. In 1985 Nintendo launched in North America as Nintendo Entertainment Systems and that is when the famous Super Mario Bros. game was first out on the gaming consoles.
The game consoles that Nintendo released were the Game Boy with its cartridges for playing games. The Nintendo 64 with its 3D graphics which could play up to 4 players instead of the usual 2 players. The Nintendo GameCube came next which used an optical disc instead of game cartridges. The most recent home console is the Nintendo Wii which now days people are trying to get their hands on. The Wii uses motion sensing controllers to play their games. The next is the DSi which has music capability and two cameras, one on the outside and one facing the user.
The fifth generation is when we saw the video gaming really take hold. CD's were used instead of game cartridges. Nintendo released games like Donkey Kong. When I was growing up, Donkey Kong was the game to have. In the fifth generation we also saw Sony's PlayStation come onto the scene. Nintendo also countered with the N64. PlayStation used the cd's and N64 still used the cartridges and was thought to be a downfall for the company. That is when PlayStation took off and sold over 100 million consoles.
The sixth generation saw PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube and Microsoft Xbox hit the scene. PlayStation 2 was the first to play DVD's and since has sold over 140 million consoles. The Xbox used a hard drive to save games which really worked like a small computer.
The seventh generation saw Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Wii fighting for bragging rights to the gaming industry. The Xbox 360 Live allows the Xbox 360 to connect to the internet. The PS3 comes with a hard drive which means you can play Blu-ray disc movies and games. What is great with the PS3 is you can connect to your television and get bigger, life size pictures all in HD. The Nintendo Wii has an SD card for storage. It has a remote to use to play games, which sorta looks like a TV remote. Wii also has a virtual console which can be used to download games form older systems and also from competitors. So you see the history of the gaming industry and Nintendos dominance.
Hello my name is Alan [http://www.pspvideogamer.org] and I've enjoyed writing these articles for Ezines. I would like to think I'm becoming an expert with the video games section. I am becoming an expert because I watch my son and grandsons play these games and the excitement of watching the competition is most enjoying. They really get after it. It truly is fun to watch them and I even get in on the playing quite a bit of the time. Right now I would like extend the invitation for you to come to my website [http://www.pspvideogamer.org] and check out what I have to offer in games and accessories in the video gaming. See you there in a few moments.
