Description

In the early 1970s, video arcade games sprung to life in the form of Pong, Space Invaders, Asteroids, and Pac-Man, and if you were lucky enough to have an Atari system you could play Frogger or Galaga at home.

By the 1980s, arcade and video games were entrenched as a pop culture phenomenon and were ubiquitous.

But as quickly as the form took flight it began to change with the advent of hand-held games and more sophisticated home-gaming.

Brian Eddy here traces the evolution of arcade video games, giving readers an inside look at the stratospheric rise—and transformation—of the industry.
