In 1961, MIT acquired the PDP-11which is a series of minicomputers used vector code yet it wasn’t CPU which is brains of the computer where most calculations take place. Then, “the game space war” created in 1962 which wasn’t widespread, unlike PDP, because it was super expensive. Atari which is game company solved the problem in the early 1970s. They invented the coin-type game and used low-cost TV monitor. The games had more and more developed and cheaper 1972 through1983, high quality as had became colorful and complicated.
