What was the video game crash of the early 1980s?

The North American video game crash of 1983 (sometimes known as the Atari Débâcle or the video game crash of 1983 and 1984 because it was in that year that the full effects of the crash became apparent to consumers) brought an abrupt end to what is considered the second generation of console video gaming in the English-speaking world. It almost destroyed the then-fledgling industry and led to the bankruptcy of several companies producing home computers and Video Game Consoles in North America. It lasted about two years, and many business analysts of the time expressed doubts about the long-term viability of video game consoles. The video-game industry was revitalized a few years later, mostly due to the widespread success of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), which was released in North America in 1985 and became extremely popular by 1987.


What was the commercial first video game?

I assume you're asking what the first commercially available video game was. That would be Computer Space, an arcade game that was released in 1971. The first home console was the Magnavox Odyssey, released early in 1972. Atari's Pong, which many believe to be the first video game, was also released as an arcade game in 1972, although the home consoles weren't made available until '75.
