📝 Description

Pong is one of the earliest arcade video games and is widely considered the first commercially successful video game. Released by Atari in 1972, it is a two-dimensional sports game that simulates table tennis. Players control an in-game paddle by moving it vertically across the left or right side of the screen, and compete against another player or a computer-controlled opponent. The conversation uses Pong as an example of early, simple video games to illustrate the rapid advancement of simulation technology, comparing its simplicity to today's photorealistic games.
