1. Pong
a brief history of Pong
Pong (marketed as PONG) is one of the earliest arcade video games; it is a tennis
sports game featuring simple two-dimensional graphics. While other arcade video
games such as Computer Space came before it, Pong was one of the first video
games to reach mainstream popularity. The aim is to defeat the opponent in a
simulated table tennis game by earning a higher score. The game was originally
manufactured by Atari Incorporated (Atari), who released it in 1972.
