Pong Pong Never Die

did you know that mario is akuma? the comments do.
There's a bit of debate over what qualifies as the world's first video game, as Tennis For Two is actually predated by a patent that was filed for a device called the cathode-ray tube amusement device, which never actually got made. Call it a bit of personal bias, but I think that actually existing is a pretty crucial step to being considered a video game, so in my mind the award goes to Tennis For Two. (by the way, look up a picture of the machine that plays TFT. it takes up an entire room and the screen is the size of a salad plate.)
The Wikipedia page for "Early history of video games" has more notable devices made around the same time, they're quite interesting to read about if you're so inclined. There's even a bit of Tic-Tac-Toe lore in there, which is related to something we talked about in the video!

I hate to be "that guy" but the part about teaching his students isn't the true story He actually used the cube to solve a structural problem, and see if he could move the individual parts without ruining the cube as a whole. The part about scrambling it unintentionally and taking a long while to solve it, however, is 100% true another fact is that it was originally just called the "magic cube", but the distributor wanted to make the trademark more unique, and thus named it after the inventor

Pong for 2 is a reference to Tennis for 2, which is one of the earliest video games ever made.

I think the reason the breakout game ended at 12 was because in a lot of games where there is a serve you need to be winning by a certain amount of points to win

Love hearing summon in the sunlight, happy souls is such a great animation

This no joke is one of my favorite videos online. I have no idea why I love it so fucking much, but it AT LEAST is in my top 5 This is better than 2001: A Space Odyssey

Dong dong never dies, isn’t a street fighter clone. Its a clone of the less popular king of fighters, and uses kof inputs, which is why the moves don’t come out when you think they should.

[@voltekka47]

DDND doesn't have hops and dashes like KoF does though.

I always come back to this video every once in a while

[@jaysefgames1155]

The first game was tennis for two. The first commercial game was Tennis for the Magnavox Odyssey. Then Space Wars released in arcades. Then Pong, a bootleg of Tennis, became popular. Atari was, rightfully, sued for Pong, but they had an idea of how to market something, unlike Magnavox, and managed to make it somewhat popular

I used to be addicted to vienna sausages as a kid. Now I can't eat them without getting a stomach ache. Kids can truly tolerate some awful af food.

I just looked at the webpage and other browser games of this author and holy crap does he have a fixation on the same five Greek myth punishments. Also he's a master at driving you mad in a very intentionally feeling way in solo games and it's honestly genius

[@coolbark4376]

I never laughed so hard watching two people play pong

[@mogg4243]

Watching you play breakdown pong and calling it breakout pong was honestly a bit annoying, what made it worse was that you then proceeded to SKIP the actual breakout pong.

[@DavidSartor0]

I agree.

[@dogelord1886]

"orange and green are not normally together" *cries in irish*

[@verylostdoommarauder]

I just realized that Pongs may have been based on that one AVGN episode with the pong consoles.

It took me forever to realize that B.U.T.T.O.N. is supposed to stand for Brutally Unfair TacTics are Okay Now, like the directions said

He most likely asked people to do this at some kind of cosplaying convention, most logical explanation for why the sprites are chunky and bad.

Oh, I thought this was gonna be a Mugen stream for a hot second.

7:25 this emits an energy, just raw unfiltered energy.

Fighting games with grayfruit never dissappoint, this was one of the funniest ones he did, along with Kermit kombat
