Generation 3 (1980 - 1989)

Generation 5 (1993 - 1998)

Generation 6 (1998 - 2004)

Generation 5

Generation 5 consoles made the leap from 16 bit to 32 bit consoles and largely made the jump to optical storage rather than crtridge based storage, although hand held consoles mostly remained with cartridge or media card storage. Generation 5 was also when Sony really entered the games market for the first time with the original playstation. The majority of 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation manufacturers had either failed to exist or moved onto other areas. Although Nintendo was still a strong player in the 5th generation Sega failed to produce the success that they had with the megadrive and the Sega saturn was poorly recieved. Sega largely moved on to writing games for other consoles rather than producing consoles. Atari also failed to continue the success they had with the 2600 vcd games console. A full list of 5th generation consoles is below from the wikipedia article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_game_consoles and is used under the creative commons licence.

Chorley's leading computer shop for Business and home computer repair. Service and Repair of PC's and Apple Mac . When we were looking for premises for 1 Stop Tech shop we had a number of considerations. We wanted to be located in a strategic area at the centre of the motorway network that allowed PJR Micro Ltd to service our business and domestic customers easily and cost effectively. We therefore chose Chorley as this location. As we have continued expanding we quickly realised that our Chorley shop was to small for our purposes. We therefore started looking for new larger premises. There was nothing suitable within the immediate area so we expanded our search further afield, and located a building in Whelley, Wigan which was ideally suited for our purposes which we moved to in 2009. As our business is now going more and more data based we need a premises with fast backbone connection and as the fastest speeds we can obtain at Wigan is 3mb we have amalgamated all our business under one roof at our business service center at Coppull Where we have a 15mb and a 11mb backbone connection. Our Business customers range in areas from Liverpool to Wilmslow and Kendal to York and we have domestic customers all over Lancashire and Greater Manchester. Our new computer shop and premises have extensive offroad parking so short distance to carry sickly pc's.

Coppull's leading computer shop is proud to be a synaxxon member
