Episode Notes

Pong is nearly 50 years old. It dominated arcades and got home gamers addicted to video games in the 1970s. It was only a dot and two lines as paddles, so what made it so special? This first episode explores the early days of Pong and its conception from arcade to home console and discusses a few modern versions of Pong aimed at getting new generations hooked.
