The video game industry is thought of as having started in the early 70’s with Pong and other early arcade hits. While this may have effectively started the business, video games themselves go all the way back to 50’s.

Are you guys gonna make more of these? If so, here's one idea... history of handheld video games (starting with those LED ones from te 70's), or even just the Gameboy and it's spinoffs. Or maybe one on the most important innovations of the last 30 years.
oh yeah. Other people have discussed this, yoo. I very much want to do a history of handheld- covering the wonderswan and the led one's from the 70's and everything. No doubt.
Wow, Leo looks and sounds NOTHING like Bushnell. I mean, less than he looked like Howard Hughes. If Leo can pull it off, congrats to him, but man... Leo is just physically so not right for this. Anyone else have any ideas who might play a more convincing Bushnell?
Sorry: for some reason, we can't post link in the comments section. Here's an article that appeared in Variety online:
Paramount Pictures has snapped up a pitch titled "Atari," with Leonardo DiCaprio attached to star.
Written by Brian Hecker and Craig Sherman, project is a biopic about entrepreneur Nolan Bushnell, the creator of Atari and one of the founding fathers of the vidgame industry.
Although Bushnell's life rights had long been pursued by various suitors, Hecker and Craig Sherman convinced the gaming pioneer that they could do his unique story justice. Bushnell and Ted Dabney founded Atari Inc. in 1972 and were instrumental in bringing arcade games, home vidgame consoles and home computers to the masses. Among the company's contributions was PONG and the Atari 2600.
Hecker most recently wrote and directed "Bart Got a Room," which was a hit at this year's Tribeca Film Festival.
Hecker and Sherman are repped by Original Artists.
I remember this Video Game museum I attended two years ago called "Game on!" in Seattle and I saw all those old systems like the Odyssey and the Prototype "Brown Box" Baer made. I also saw the large old computers that played Space war. It was a pretty cool history lesson.
