IT HAS BEEN OVER 50 YEARS SINCE THE WORLD’S FIRST HOME GAME CONSOLE, THE “ODYSSEY” (1972), WAS RELEASED IN THE UNITED STATES. MORE THAN 40 YEARS HAVE ALSO PASSED SINCE THE LAUNCH OF NINTENDO'S FAMILY COMPUTER IN 1983, BRINGING VIDEO GAMES TO A POINT WHERE THEIR HISTORY CAN NOW BE DISCUSSED AND DOCUMENTED.
