another great clip, you guys are the greatest to put this stuff up.Michigan sucks we don't have gaming fests and retro gaming appreciation here, Everyone here is xbox this and xbox that or ps2 this. SCREW THAT! I wish I could find a group here that has appreciation for classic gaming like you guys do.

That's Ralph Baer!...He is concidered to be the father of video games!

[gamebotonline]

Yes indeed! Although Willy Higginbotham created the first interactive electronic game in 1958 (thats documented anyway), Ralph Baer was the first to create a prototype (circa 1967) that displayed interactive games on a television. Baer sold the concept to Magnavox. The prototype was adapted to meet FCC regulations and sold as the Magnavox Odyssee, the first video game system in 1972.
