How Pong Works (discrete digital/analog chips)

It wasn’t a microcontroller based system, or even software based. It was entirely hardware, doing “TV output” directly. Quite a fascinating set of simulations of how it worked!

Wow, super cool. Obviously being so old it’d be unlikely to have much in the way of a microcontroller, but didn’t know it was basically all discrete logic!
