**In 1983, the home video gaming industry had one of the most spectacular crashes of any individual industry in American economic history. Sales that had hit $3.2 billion industry-wide in 1983 plummeted to a total of $100 million by 1985. Most people attribute this to a market glut of poor quality games, put out by fly-by-night companies, and exacerbated by the truly dreadful Atari titles ‘Pac-Man’ and ‘E.T., the Extraterrestrial’. Atari made the inexplicable decision to manufacture more ‘Pac-Man’ cartridges than the existing number of Atari consoles (why?!), and ‘E.T.’ was so unpopular that many unsold cartridges literally wound up in a landfill (recently determined to be located in Alamogordo, New Mexico). The negative response to these titles (although ‘Pac-Man’ sold extremely well, it’s fair to say the game was very poorly regarded and a massive disappointment) seemed to set off a domino effect throughout the industry, resulting in massive bankruptcies and multiple companies closing in 1983 through 1985.** | **In 1983, the home video gaming industry had one of the most spectacular crashes of any individual industry in American economic history.

**The emulator we’ll use for the NES is FCEUX. It can be installed via Synaptics Package Manager (see FCM #130’s Everyday Ubuntu column for more on Synaptics). Use the search function at the top of the Synaptics window and look for FCEUX. Click the checkbox to select it and then Apply to install. Like the other emulators we’ve covered, you’ll need ROM images for the games you want to play. These are readily downloadable from multiple websites, but what is or isn’t legal to do in that regard is an open question. At the very least, you probably need to own a copy of the game in question. | **The emulator we’ll use for the NES is FCEUX.

**Now, this is an older game emulator and does not have a GUI, much like last month’s ColEm Colecovision emulator. Open File Manager from the Launcher and go to the folder where you have stored any game ROM files that you have downloaded. Right-click a blank area in the Files pane, and select Open In Terminal. This will open a Terminal session with the directory location already set to the current directory.
