if it was, it happened really fast since the association didn't exist before 1986.

before the video game crash, game systems were sold in electronics stores. afterwards, when Nintendo wanted to lose the association with the crash, they went t toy stores... and toy stores gender every product, at least back then, so they had to decide which side to put it on.
