Galaxy Game, the first coin-operated arcade game, back in focus
Original: Galaxy Game
The Galaxy Game, widely credited as the first coin-operated video game, is being discussed following a blog post from a computer museum. Built in 1971 at Stanford University by Bill Pitts and Hugh Tuck, the space-themed arcade machine predates Computer Space and Pong, making it a landmark in the history of interactive entertainment and games preservation.
Why now: A museum blog post has renewed interest in the origins of arcade gaming and the pioneering Galaxy Game machine.
