When compared to the 90s, the gaming industry is now highly developed. But in the midst of its development, there must be things that come and go. Like the 5 Trends of the Video Game Industry that is Now Extinct.
1. Arcade Machine
The arcade machine is a very popular machine before the console or pc gaming , because only here you can play video games using coins. In his day, this machine is very loved by gamers , yes because once again the absence of console or pc gaming . In Indonesia alone where the arcade was not as easy as looking for rental ps or cafe as it is now, because in Indonesia the first game popularly played in Nintendo NES .
2. Hint Hotlines
Before the Internet, once the communication tool all depends on the phone. If now, if you are lost or stuck in the game then you can find a solution on the Internet or by asking the game community concerned. But unlike in the old days before the internet, everything depends on the phone and if you get lost, some game developers provide hotline numbers that you can call to get directions to play the game . You will talk directly to the operator of the game developer who will give you instructions.
3. Motion Control
'Motion Control' is a controller that you can use to input through motion, or in other words you can control your game with the movement you give . This trend started with a fairly successful Nintendo Wii with their 'Wii remote' controller that sells in the market. Other manufacturers tried to follow it, but failed. Although 'motion control' is still in the Nintendo Switch , but this technology seems to have been rarely used and dying because of the emergence of VR .
4. Live Action FMV Games
'Live Action FMV Games' or 'Full Motion Video Games' is a narrative video game that relies on pre-recorded video files rather than using 3d or other models. In this game you will see a scene from the original person and not the animation. This game was popular in the 80s because of its unique concept. But unfortunately, the quality of this type of game is so bad that less enthusiasts until finally abandoned.
5. Gimmick 3rd Party Controller
If now the way the developers to sell the money added from the game is to sell accessories such as action figures or artbooks and more. In the 80s and 90s the developers made an exclusive controller for the game with the design as unique as possible. But unfortunately these accessories are not just a gimmick , because instead of making it easier to play the game, 3rd party controllers are sold by developers even more difficult and more suitable to be displayed as a collection.
