#pongclone — Public Fediverse posts

Btw @computerspielemuseum : fehlt euch noch ein Interton Video 2000 in der Sammlung? Die halte ich schon seit ca. 1978 warm. Aber wäre auch sehr bereit die Konsole in bessere Hände zu geben.

This was a doorbell camera thingy at one point in time. Now it's "Ding Pong", as Simon Augustin gutted it, inserted one of the Sony portable b/w CRT TV (watchman I believe) and hardwired the most common Pong chip from back in the day into this thing (General Instrument AY-3-8500 if I'm not mistaken). It's a two player device, but you can play alone as well. It's quite special and I like it a lot, and it's pretty unique. The stuff that this guy comes up with ... crazy. He's also one of the few guys who knows the Interton VC4000 inside and out, even working on another new game for it. Anyway, thought you might like the Ding Pong. Cheers!

Video games in the 70s just hit different….oh and occasionally came with rifles

Then I've done some audio/video talks on #videogamehistory as well!

These two talks I did at #midwestgamingclassic in 2021 and 2022, the last with Kevin Bunch. We talk Dave Nutting Associates and the #ballyprofessionalarcade

This one is #coinophistory but I did two episodes on the early "arcade" games on the Memory Machine podcast.
