And if you have not hit the Pong, explain yourself.

I cannot remember. But that reminds me of the wii play laser hockey game. That was awesome.

Christmas 1981, my parents got my sister a knock-off Radio Shack Pong system to hook up to her tiny black and white TV. It had about five or six different versions of the game, but at the end of the day they were all Pong.

Probably a DOS PC port. If such a thing existed.

I dont believe I have ever played Pong, but I did play Video Olympics Atari 2600 back in the 80s.

I am having trouble remembering when I first played Pong.

I remember playing Breakout, which is a variation (invented by Steve Wozniak). It was on a TRS-80 (Tandy Radio Shack). Cartridge based. It was a girls birthday party I was invited to (my first) when I would have been under the age of ten. Of course, I was absorbed by the computer game and ignored all the other innocent shenanigans.
