The First Video Game War (1/3) [Tech Wars]

The first video game war pitted the Atari 2600 against the Fairchild Channel F and Magnavox Odyssey 2. In this first episode, we'll discover we led three different companies to develop their own versions of a cartridge-based game console, and meet key players like Ralph Baer and Nolan Bushnell.

In episode 2, we'll see the different techniques these early consoles used to get graphics on the screen, and how that changed the look and feel of the games. View it here: https://youtu.be/K53MaHNIlds

Finally, in episode 3, we'll see how the war was won, and what happened in the aftermath: https://youtu.be/AEjuPnEWVEc

This is the first story in a new series called TECH WARS, all about the technology battles that shaped recent history. These stories are adapted from a new book I'm writing.
