Pong's nickname
editI heard this game is the granddaddy of video games.--Nate-Dawg921 (talk) 05:12, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
- I've not heard this nickname before. It was not the first video game, but it was the first arcade and home console game to take off with the general public.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 07:09, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
