@MichaelHeide5 ай бұрын
@@GTV-Japan I'm no expert, having been born in 1980, but I think that Sega's lack of success might be because the American video game crash didn't have the same repercussions over here. While I had an Atari 800XL and various friends had Atari 2600s, Germany overall was Commodore 64 territory. Atari's failure didn't put a dent in that at all, and gaming as a whole didn't have as bad a reputation because of it. Also, arcades weren't common over here because coin operated games had more of a gambling connotation, so we only got the odd machine or two in random diners, airports, bowling alleys or other public spaces, not a whole bunch of them in dedicated buildings directed at kids. So while Nintendo of America promoted the Famicom as an entertainment system with a toy robot and a VCR design to avoid getting lumped in with Atari, and later as a way to bring Arcade games home, it launched in 1986 in Europe as just another game system for kids without a gimmick to draw attention to it. And from what I can recollect, the NES didn't really take off until the Game Boy made gaming wildly popular, which more or less coincided with our version of Nintendo Power (called "Club Nintendo" over here) instilling brand loyalty in its readers. The chip shortage of the late 80s might have been another factor in Nintendo not promoting the NES as much over here. The Master System made even less of an impact in 1987, having fewer ads, fewer games and no Club Sega magazine. The Mega Drive fared much better for a while, but only until Sega confused parents with all of the add-ons and extensions. And the Saturn and the Dreamcast only reached the most hardcore of gamers, never gaining the popularity of the Super Nintendo, the N64 or the Playstation. Or PCs, which became widespread around that time, as the heir of the C64 and Amiga. I hope that wasn't too much rambling. I always find it interesting to look at other markets, and how different things went over there.
@GTV-Japan5 ай бұрын
@MichaelHeide a lot of that are things assessed after the fact. I don’t believe a lot of the narratives anyway. It really comes down to marketing and games and for some reason it was very strong in Germany and having German translations Probably helped a lot.
