Ralph Baer - Father of Video Games Would Have Been 99 Today
Ralph Henry Baer was born on March 8, 1922 and was a German-American inventor, game developer, and engineer.
Baer is considered "the Father of Video Games" due to his many contributions to games and helping to spark the video game industry in the latter half of the 20th century. In February, 2006, he was awarded the National Medal of Technology for "his groundbreaking and pioneering creation, development and commercialization of interactive video games, which spawned related uses, applications, and mega-industries in both the entertainment & education realms".
Baer passed away at his home in Manchester, New Hampshire on December 6, 2014
First Gaming Commercial Console in History (A Summary)
In 1972, the first videogame console was released by Magnavox, an electronics company. Created by Ralph Baer, known as "The Father of Videogames".
The "Magnavox Odyssey" had limited graphic capacities, while it only showed two white blocks and a vertical line along the screen, it included translucent color superpositions for configurations and designs proporses.
The controls had 3 buttons, one for vertical movement, one for horizontal movement and a "Reset" button.
350,000 units were sold and wasn't a commercial success to the fact of a bad commercialization and information since people will think that this device will only work on Magnavox TV's.
This videogame console didn't have audio either and the price of it might have been to high since it was around $100 equal to $600 today.
Despite the unsuccessful destiny for this device, the "Magnavox Odyssey" introduced the informatic technology to homes, proving and existing market for home videogames.
Ralph Baer - Créateur de la Magnavox Odyssey by Erwann Terrier
Today is a great day in my gaming life! I'm here at one of the Smithsonian buildings. And they had a meet and greet! I struck up a conversation with a presenter and he introduced me to Ralph Baer's son! If it wasn't for this man's father, our hobby and industry would be fundamentally different. We tried out various things his father had a chance to blueprint and create. We talked about gaming back then and now. And I was asking how that prototype Oddysey was hooked up to a modern TV. My dumb butt thought the display with all those things was a replica. But they both told me that this was the real thing. Awesome! I'm awestruck to be a part of a piece of history and I was proud to shake that gentleman's hand. Game on!

El origen robado del videojuego: cómo una idea ajena desató la revolución del ocio digital
Mucho antes de la guerra de consolas que conocemos hoy, el germen de la industria del videojuego se gestó en una sala de estar y se dirimió en los tribunales. En 1972, el éxito arrollador de Pong, la máquina arcade de Atari, escondÃa un secreto incómodo: su concepto habÃa sido tomado de la Magnavox Odyssey, la primera consola doméstica creada por el ingeniero Ralph Baer. Lo que siguió no solo…
