Pong is not the first video game. Nolan Bushnell, who later founded
Atari, did Pong. Several years before Pong, Nolan created a more
sophisticated game called Computer Space, built by Nutting and
Associates.
Computer Space was the first arcade video game.
Atari home Pong was the first home video game.
Magnavox Odyssey1 was the first home video game system.
Trust me, I own all of them.
