Random information on the term ” Pong”:
An arcade game or coin-op game is a coin-operated entertainment machine typically installed in public businesses such as restaurants, bars and amusement arcades. Most arcade games are video games, pinball machines, electro-mechanical games, redemption games or merchandisers. While exact dates are debated, the golden age of arcade video games is usually defined as a period beginning sometime in the late 1970s and ending sometime in the mid-1980s. Excluding a brief resurgence in the early 1990s, the arcade industry subsequently declined in the Western hemisphere as competing home video game consoles such as the Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox increased in their graphics and game-play capability and decreased in cost. The Eastern Hemisphere retains a strong arcade industry.
Games of skill had been popular amusement-park midway attractions since the 19th century, and with the introduction of solid-state electronics and coin-operated machines, presented the opportunity for a viable business. However, the manufacturer of these games had their roots in the production of gambling equipment such as slot machines, and created concerns to the nature of these games. When pinball machines with electronic lights and displays were introduced in 1933, but without the user-controller flippers which would not invented until 1947, these machines were seen as games of luck, as well as amoral playthings that drew the attention of rebellious young people to them, and numerous state and city bans were placed on these machines which lasted into the 1960s and 1970s. Electro-mechanical games introduced in 1966 served as early precursors of the arcade game. Sega’s Periscope was one of the first such games, and established the standard of use a quarter per play.
