The History of Gaming, from where it began and the progress, encountered throughout the decades since its inception :)

The first-ever video game was created by a computer scientist named Willy Higinbotham in 1958. The game was called “Tennis for Two” and it was played on an oscilloscope.

A few years later in 1962, Ralph Baer created the first home console called “Brown Box” which would eventually become the Magnavox Odyssey.

In 1971, Atari released their first arcade game called Pong with two players controlling paddles on either side of a screen and trying to bounce a ball off their opponent’s side of the screen.

In1972, Magnavox released the first video game console that could connect to other consoles and TVs called the “Video Pinball” which would later be re-branded as “Pong”

In 1972, Magnavox released the first video game console that could connect to other consoles and TVs called the “Video Pinball” which would later be re-branded as “Pong”.In 1976, Atari released their first video game console named “Atari 2600”.

In the Golden Era, which is also known as the Golden Age of Arcade Games, there was a wide variety of arcade games to choose from. There were many different types of games, such as sports games, racing games, and shooter games.

The Golden Era had a lot more variety than the current era. In the Golden Era, there were no smartphones or tablets to play on.

This meant that gamers had to go out and play in public places such as arcades or at home on their consoles. Arcade games in the Golden Era were better quality than any other type of game because they did not have to worry about battery life like mobile devices do today.

This allowed for longer gameplay time and smoother graphics. .

There was a wide variety of classic arcade games in the Golden Era that are no longer made today.

Examples of popular games from the Golden Era include Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, Altered Beast, and Street Fighter.
