Saturday Night Showcase: The Video Game Years (1977)

Video games have come a long way in a few years. Still the latest medium it has gone from silly amusements to a storytelling giant. And almost from the beginning of public video games it has been a money maker, doing what couldn’t be done with previous game types. For the past few years Retroware has been producing a “talking heads” look at the history of video games called The Video Game Years. Since I didn’t get any videos done thanks to my cold, I bring you the first episode, going back to where it all began–1977

You can catch the full series, currently up to 1989, on the Retroware website. Hopefully next week I’ll have a video for you.
