"Computer Space" (November 1971)

Before founding Atari, Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney created "Computer Space," which is considered the first commercially sold coin-operated video game. Players control a rocket ship that's under attack by flying saucers. Among the game's claims to fame, it made a cameo in the movie "Jaws."
