カメラで撮影した人をデジタル取り込みしてプリンターで出力するという大がかりなアーケードマシン。当時最先端の技術だったけど高価すぎて普及はしていない。でもこれは確かにプリクラの祖先と言えなくもない… #AstroPrint #AlliedLeisure #1976

Yay! Welcome to the club! I had Al Alcorn sign mine last year and he told some good stories about how a rep from Sears said it would only appeal to "pot smoking hippies." HE WAS NOT WRONG.

HA! Love that. I had another colonoscopy recently (cause I'm a 50-something now) and everyone in the office including my doctor loved the story!

Wow... I helped make this game 25 years ago, and now it's being republished by Atari... Does this mean I finally lived out my lifelong goal of MAKING AN ATARI GAME?!?!? 😱 @atari.com

Ha ha thanks for digging this up! Glad you are enjoying it! Note: We recorded this in '96, but then said "1999!" just to sound cool like Public Enemy or something. Should outs to the Wookie w/the Cookies @chasers.bsky.social who created this awesome compilation record!

Excited to share that the AVOID MISSING BALL exhibition will be open to the public again for a limited engagement in December… please follow for more details!!! #odyssey #pong #atari #arcade #gamehistory #microsoft #xbox #pcgames #pcgaming #retrogaming #macintosh #bungie #halo #nvidia #supercade ♡

Supercade is excited to announce a new exhibition celebrating the rich history of videogames — AVOID MISSING BALL —curated in partnership with Ayzenberg at Space Gallery in Pasadena, California. This definitive survey of the first interactive game explores the dawn of digital culture and the pioneers who created a new medium.

On view will be a comprehensive archive of first-generation home gaming systems including Odyssey, Atari’s Pong, and myriad rare clones – some playable on vintage era-correct televisions – as well as an Atari VCS playing Video Olympics, Commodore Pet running Pong!, and several early Pong arcade games.

Also included is two-player immersive experience ACID PONG created by video artist Josh Randall (@robotkid), a psychedelic gaming trip challenging interaction and reaction. Randall embraces the inherent glitchiness of the technology and asks, “What if it was more glitchy?”

Also displayed in the gallery is a selection of digital prints from photographer Ira Nowinski’s iconic series “Bay Area Video Arcades”, generously on loan from Stanford University Library.
