More about the book
From Atari to Sega, from Apple to Nintendo DS, this full colour book takes not a regional, or European, but a global view on 33 years of onscreen fun and interaction and presents hardware from Japan, USA, UK, France, Germany and Korea, along with classic software in its authentic, pixellated glory. Including over 600 pictures, exclusively shot for Game. Machines, the book contains extensive indices, as well as 20 pages of technical data and explanations. This greatly enhanced and revised edition provides a time journey across the video game era: from the 4-bit beginnings to the broadband future. More than 400 dream machines and million sellers, bizarre slip-ups and exotic variants are profiled in full colour chapters with extensive appendixes
