Zitat des Tages von Ralph Baer:
Coming up with ideas isn't hard. The real challenge is finding the time to actually build something and then finding a home for it.
Most inventions are based on some prior history.
In 1966, thoughts about playing games using an ordinary TV set began to percolate in my mind.
'Pong' is simply a knockoff of the Odyssey Ping-Pong game.
When you built television sets, you have all this test equipment. And you'd have all these lines and squares on the screen to test it. So it occurred to me that it might be fun for people to control the lines and squares on the screen.
For me, inventing video games was just one successful thing I had done among many others.
There's nothing in the Bible that says, 'You must play video games.'
