A Response to Alexi's Presentation

   Last week, Alexi gave a brief presentation about the 1980s video game console crash. While listening, I was struck by two thoughts. The first being a mental thumbs-up for her choice of topic. This subject isn't as the most popular topic to speak on when studying the medium, yet its role was too significant to simply forget or cover up this period in history. 
   However, my second thought was on how short and somewhat insubstantial the presentation was. Granted, what was there was interesting, but the facts presented were sparse and the overall lack of information made the presentation as a whole feel a little vague. 
   The topic presented is one of great interest, but the information presented here didn't do much to satisfy. Perhaps with a little more time and research, this presentation and the paper soon to follow will truly cover the topic. This presentation was a good start. I can't wait to see what comes next!
