The Origins of Video Game Hardware
The Origins of Video Games lies in the desire to create a robot that could beat a human at a video game. This spurred the invention of video games and got us from having just the dirt on the ground to playing games on the powerful devices that we have today. This video game documentary will let you know all about the steps it took to get here.
I had planned to do this video since March of this year. The long semester and a lot of other things to do got in the way. But I thankfully managed to finally complete it. Hope you enjoy watching it!
