| − | + | The Casio PV-1000 launched in Japan in October, 1983, for 14,800¥. The console was based on technology from the previous generation, such as the [[ColecoVision]]. Faced with competition from the likes of the Sega [[SG-1000]] and the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|Nintendo Famicom]], the PV-1000 did not last long, in some places disappearing within a matter of weeks. Though the PV-1000 console failed, Casio remodeled the console into a computer known as the PV-2000 which is compatible with PV-1000 controllers but not games and released it in December, 1983. | |
