Well according to the 1993 classic, "SimCity 2000," fusion power becomes available to build in the year 2050. Since I have no other source that provides an exact date of viability, this remians the most reliable prediction we have.

curious, has SimCity predicted anything correctly up to now?

If my experience with the game was an accurate account, quite a few natural disasters.

Wasn't that the one with the godzilla natural disaster toggle? If so, i figure the next few years could have some fun surprises... if we're lucky.
