Apparently, the video game crash didn't really happen in North America either. It was more or less just the downfall at the end of the Intellivision and Atari 2600 generation, but that gaming didn't go away in North America - apparently, PC and Arcade gaming were exploding at that time. This doesn't really sound like a gaming industry that needed saving to me.
This guy, who was a gamer through the 80s, clarifies what it's all about. He says the whole idea of the video game industry in North America is false and describes what actually happened.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
