In 1991, local newsstation reports Nintendo released their successor to the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) in...
In 1991 video games were not seen as a good use of time as theoretically you weren’t gaining any skill from them.
Cars are a false equivalence as they aren’t purely entertainment like SNES was.
Finally in 1991 most news media still had a “wall” between reporting/editorial staff and finances so things like ad placements weren’t as much if a factor. Removing that artificial division, which meant media was run as a company first rather than as a news source first, is behind a lot of the decline in news quality.

Well, VCRs or TVs then. Microwaves. Vacuum cleaners. Lawn mowers. Plenty of expensive shit that broke every 5 years
Sounds more like someone bought cheap shit
The microwave we had as a kid, my brother still uses. It’s gotta be 40 years old or more.
We had tvs growing up that were 10-20 years old and I’m sure some of the newer 80s/90s tvs are still working, just aren’t used.
My brother still uses the electric lawn mower my parents bought in the 90s.
VCRs, well, I haven’t used one in years, so I couldn’t tell you the shape those are in.
My vacuum is over ten years old.
I’ve got the lawn mower of Theseus, almost every part has been replaced at least once.
I want to buy a new one so bad, but every time mine stops working I manage to fix it.
