The creation of Pong
Pong was created by a group of Students & Teachers at Texas State University in 1971...I played the game with my brother on a console that had t sides I was on one side & my brother was on the other side...This was the Summer of 1971 or 1972..According to my memory it was Summer of 1972 & Pong was still being perfected by the students who were working on it,two of them being my Aunt & Uncle Janice & Ray Gay.... 2600:6C55:7C00:1282:E887:D8BA:59C3:47CE (talk) 14:53, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
How can this be based on the Odyssey?
This article states that Pong was inspired by the Table Tennis Game on the Magnavox Odyssey, but the Odyssey was released in September of 1972 and Pong was already in development in August... 2607:F2C0:E9BE:60:399B:DFD0:4498:715C (talk) 17:40, 5 May 2025 (UTC)
- The answer can already be found in the article: Bushnell saw the system demonstrated at a Magnavox event in May 1972. Indrian (talk) 20:47, 5 May 2025 (UTC)
