Gaming has, undoubtedly, changed over the years. In reality, many historical things have changed, and this is one of the best reasons for studying history and receiving a diploma. The development from the arcades to the first Nintendo at first proceeded slowly for games. We've gone from console gaming to smartphones especially over the past decade, and even the new consoles that are released are more sophisticated than ever, featuring extremely detailed graphics.
Pong, the first arcade game, was released back in 1972, and just five years later, the first gaming console was launched— the Atari 2600 with over 27,600,000 units sold. The console's most famous game was released in Asteroids, in 1979. The 80s brought about the notorious Pac-Man that generated revenue in excess of $2 billion. It was also during the 80s that we were exposed to Donkey Kong PC Football, the Nintendo Entertainment System and John Madden.
