Pong-the-first-to-console-game-of-Atari-celebrates-40-years

The first was created in videogames 1972 and it was in black and white.

Only three years later, in 1975, the Atari, a historic American company, produced the first console that was called Pong.

Pong was the ancestor of the current console, had the appearance of a box and to play, instead of modern joystick, there were two rudimentary knobs.

With the Pong console could play the game of tennis two white rectangles with a black background and a ball square.

They could play the game of tennis and won only two players who could not take the ball to the other player.

A game that has made a fool of an entire generation.

The console Pong then went on to steal, especially in the United States, where almost every house there was an Atari and millions of boys spent afternoons with the console created by Atari.

The creator of the Pong console was founder Nolan Bushnell dell’Atari that, for this reason, is considered the father of all consoles.

The life of Nolan Bushnell, who in 2010 returned to Atari, could soon become a movie that will see as actor Leonardo di Caprio.
