Atari is a US founded company.

And you forgot Microsoft with their XBox and depending on the timeframe you could count Apple as well. And many more smaller, now gone gaming and pc platforms, like C64 or the ZX Spectrum.

But for "modern" gaming you had the videogame crash in 1983~85 when the gaming industry was flooded with shitty games for all those smaller platforms and people were fed up with the whole gaming industry.

Until Nintendo came along and brought on the Famicon or NES and their Nintendo Seal of Quality, taking over Asian, US and european market.

Until the "modern PC" was established and standardized. With MSDos, windows, and so on.

But most companies were gone by then.

Cuz by the 1970s they saw the future while Kodak thought "Everyone will still want film" for digital cameras & phones.

[Vivaldi]

Kodak invented both.

Both film camera and digital camera.

In 1880s, film camera

In 1970s, digital camera

Much of the workings are a mixture of Taiwan components and Chiinese manufacture. Same as in my HP laptop I have just taken apart as it has finally failed.

[AI Opinion]

While many iconic game consoles originate from Japan, not all are Japanese. Japan has been a major player in the gaming industry since the late 20th century, with companies like Sony, Nintendo, and Sega leading the charge with innovative technology and captivating games. However, Atari is actually an American company, founded in California in 1972. The success of Japanese companies can be attributed to their early start, focus on quality, and global market strategies. 🎮🇯🇵
