in 1988, i remember my brother and i got an nes for christmas. my parents set it up so we could play smb1. i was 5 and my brother was almost 7 so we didn’t exactly understand how to play. we just kept taking turns running right off the first edge. even though it took us a while to learn there was much more to the game, we were having a great time just falling off that first edge. of course he was always mario and i was always luigi. older sibling alwaysss gets mario. 😆
@@jenniferhollywood I love this! We also got the NES in 88 and I also played it with my older brother. I was 5 and he was 11. I remember playing T&C Surf Designs: Wood & Water Rage and having no clue what do to but loving every second.
I knew somebody growing up who had an Odyssey, although it was well into the Atari 2600 era by that time. Or at least, I think it was an Odyssey? I think all the games were the same pong-style gameplay and I definitely remember the overlays that stuck to the TV by static electricity. I don't recall those boxy controllers though and I feel like I really would have.
This was extremely well done. The info was presented in a really interesting manner and it somehow turned into edge of the seat material despite me already knowing the basics of the story. I appreciated the Stuff humour and personality sprinkled in as well! This is your best work yet Stuff - I hope the algorithm is kind to you as this one deserves a wide audience!
I feel like I've already said this, but you're always improving. This is so good. The info, production level, vo delivery, pacing, etc... everything is solid.
Oh and earliest gaming memory is what was shown / hinted at here near the end of the video - screws in the back of the tv, RF switches, and a knock off pong console in the late 70's . My family was never going to afford something like what the Odyssey was priced at lol.
@ Did it use cartridges? As far as I know cartridge based system timeline is: odyssey, VES (aka channel fun aka channel f), Studio II, then 2600. But there were tons of random one off consoles that didn’t use cartridges. I’m curious now though. You’ve piqued my interest.
@@kristinlambert8811 I know Nintendo created some consoles in 1977 called TV-Game but they didn’t take carts. If that’s what he had, that’s pretty cool to have played an early Nintendo console back then!

Thats so cool. I wonder if there were any other consoles that used overlays. I’m sure I’ll find out along the research journey. Thank you for sharing.

Dang that's a huge compliment. I'm already hard at work on the next couple videos. I'm really enjoying creating this style of content.

Yo, thank you. I put it so much work. Not only into this video but into improvements. Thank you for noticing and always helping push me to improve.

Yeah, the Odyssey was insanely priced for the time. I'm loving learning about the next console stuff. They were truly doing some insane things.
Really good info here! Nice edits!

T. V. game is the predecessor to Atari
Are you referring to Ralph Baers early prototype that he named TV game?
@driftingatoms I remember my dad having a t.v. game when I was five years old in 1977 and 1978

@@driftingatoms Yes, if it was Pong game
