Consoles maybe, but I don't think that the early 8/16-bit microcomputers were affected by the crash of 1983, and in any case the crash was mostly a US phenomenon with minor effects on other regions.
Video game consoles have been crippled so that it would be misleading to market them as general purpose computers.
