History of Video Games

We think of video games as a new thing. Honestly, that's partially because we don't like to think that we share the same hobby that our parents, and maybe grandparents enjoyed when they were. Chances are though that you parents and grandparents spent at least some of their free time mashing buttons too when they were your age. Those buttons were just attached with wires instead of bluetooth, and in much less glorious detail. Let's take a step back through the halls of video games gone by.
