The Console Chronicles will take you on a unique journey through the history of gaming platforms. Fifty years ago, the home console was an anomaly that predated when everyone around the world knew the name Nintendo. With each passing generation, consoles evolved, their pixels exchanged for polygons. Over time, these machines gained popularity and brought the beginnings of a new artistic frontier. Consoles enabled split-screen chaos, late-night LAN parties, and interlinked online play – connecting friendships worldwide. The Console Chronicles is the ultimate tribute to not only five decades of home console gaming, but to the incredible people, and their remarkable stories, which make our shared history special. Telling tales of sibling rivalries and disruptive ideas, personal resonance and technical triumph, this is a celebration of every system that you hold dear.

A Handheld History is a unique celebration of portable platforms and their iconic games. Forty years ago, businessmen fiddling with calculators inspired Gunpei Yokoi to create the Game & Watch.

This introspective adventure will delve into decades of gaming memories and reconnect you to that long car journey full of discarded AA batteries before speeding ahead to the contemporary days of blockbusters in your backpack. Handheld gaming is celebrated loudly, proudly, and across hundreds of beautifully assembled pages of art and essays.
