Magnavox Odyssey 2000 (1977)

While not the 1st electronic game, the initial form of an electronic ping-pong game dates back as a game played on an oscilloscope, by William A. Higinbotham at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in 1958. His game was named "Tennis for Two".

In 1977, the Magnavox Odyssey line of PONG games represents the cutting edge of dedicated technology of console. The Magnavox Odyssey 2000, 3000 and 4000 were arguably the most later fanatical PONG console systems of the 1970's.
