Best Answer

The first home video game was introduced by a physicist called Willy Higinbotham in October 1958 at the Brookhaven Nation Laboratory in New York. This video game was similar to a tennis match and it was played on the Oscilloscope.

Atari's Pong, which many believe to be the first video game, was also released as an arcade game in 1972, although the home consoles weren't made available until '75.
