Nah dude, 1983 was a one-off event just caused by the rough, unregulated early game industry. It won't ever happen again.

The video game industry is still unregulated. If it wasn't, absolute catastrophes like the SimCity launch wouldn't exist.

I wish a crash would happen, just to bring everyone to their senses.

I don't think regulation of the video game industry will yield the things you're thinking of.
If anything, it'll make things worse. You'll have EA throwing lobbyist money so they can get "regulations" that will keep their products in the market while hindering their competition.

I don't know what either of you mean by "unregulated".

You misunderstand how modern lobbying and regulation works.

The regulations do not protect you, they protect the companies already in a position of success. They can't be threatened by failures or displaced by newcomers, hence the industry cannot crash.

This isn't a good thing.
