Late 1970's. The game: PONG
I didn't own it long though. A couple hours at most. I traded my bicycle for it and the deal was revolked by my parents the minute they found out. (I was 15 or 16 at the time) But I managed to play it for a few hours anyway. :)

my mom had what she called the 'tv game' when I was really little. I later found out this was PONG.
We played it for hours. When I was about 8, my stepbrother (who was a cool teenager) got Atari and we played Space Invaders, Asteroids and Pac-man. I kicked BUTT at pac-man, lol.

I came across the assembly source code for the original pong a bunch of years ago. It was something like a 150 lines of code.
And to think it probably took an entire team of developers to write. And likely millions to develop. LOL
