😄📺 The Fairchild Channel F(un), released in 1976, was the first video game console with interchangeable ROM cartridges. It was powered by their own F8 processor, which addressed a whopping 64 bytes (!) of memory. Fortunately, the memory could be expanded using the game cartridges themselves.

After watching the Gaming Historian's latest video about the Fairchild Channel F, I really want this image on a t-shirt.

As mentioned in Google's doodle today, Jerry Lawson created games in his garage. However, not a lot of people know the full story behind that.
Lawson was always a fun-loving guy. In fact before Fairchild, he made a name for himself in Silicon Valley as a prankster.
Lawson was among a few number of engineers who purchased a minicomputer (which was not mini) to have in his garage, in this case a PDP-8. Several other notable game creators - like Lane Hauck of Gremlin - also did this as their first step into making games.
