Pong is the beginning of gaming.... He must be on GOG and free^^ (for a short period of time of course!!) Every gamer should try it even for once. May the game be with you!

This is interesting! I realise a port will always be a simulation of how it played back then, and will not give the vibe of that special arcade hall from memory, or in the back of a family restaurant, putting in coins and pushing physical buttons. But still, it would be so fun to get a feel of how it played back then, whether it was sluggish or not, had delay or not. More of a scientific project, really ^^ What a gimmick that would be to find on GoG as a stand-alone!
