in 1971, "computer space", created by nolan bushnell and ted dabney, was the first commercially sold, coin-operated video game. it used a black-and-white television for its display, and the computer system was made of 74 series ttl chips. the game was featured in the 1973 science fiction film "soylent green". "computer space" was followed in 1972 by the magnavox odyssey, the first home console. modeled after a late 1960s prototype console developed by ralph h. baer called the "brown box", it also used a standard television. these were followed by two versions of atari's "pong"; an arcade version in 1972 and a home version in 1975 that dramatically increased video game popularity. the commercial success of "pong" led numerous other companies to develop "pong" clones and their own systems, spawning the video game industry.
