Re: How pong destroyed civilization
When I was 17 got invited over to a friend's house, his Dad was being pitched into investing in the first wave of commercial video gaming. He wanted to see what young people thought.
He decided not to invest, we were so hyped we could not be the market that would pay to use them....
spent the next year stuffing quarters into them at the arcade and the year after with our beer glasses on the PacMan table every night at the bar.
