Hey:
Just wanted to give a quick heads-up to anyone interested in checking out a short (3 minute) comedy video about one of pinball's earliest competitors (at least in the Detroit neighborhood in which I grew up). I'm talking about "Pong", and the video is called:
"If The Internet Had Existed In 1972"
Here's the direct link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnuhbzJpy6g
The idea was to parody ubiquitous video game reviews on the internet, but done from the P.O.V. of a "Pinball Wizard" in 1972 who happens to be VERY SKEPTICAL of this new electronic arcade technology.
Anyway, if you're interested, feel free to give it a view and
Thanks,
Todd
P.S. As indicated in the thumbnail for the video, my favorite pinball game back then was "Fireball" - "What? TWO balls?? No way...!"
