Don't know how I missed this one...but Gamer's Pulse has the story in full detail...
CGE Services Corporation, organizers of Classic Gaming Expo, today announced some of the rare items that will appear in their “History of Videogames” exhibit at Electronic Entertainment Expo 2004 in Los Angeles (May 12 -14, 2004). Among the fascinating artifacts of videogame history on display will be an original Computer Space machine, the first video arcade game designed by Nolan Bushnell, as well as an Atari Pong machine. Attendees will have the opportunity to see and play a replica of the original “Brown Box” prototype that eventually became the Magnavox Odyssey, the first home videogame console. The replica was hand-built by Ralph Baer, the system’s inventor, as the original unit currently resides in the Smithsonian Institute. Other items rarely seen or played by video gamers will include an elusive and extremely scarce Puppy Pong machine as well as various home console prototypes.
*sighs* Now I know I'm feeling old - since I remember all of those "oldies"... |
