I remember watching this on TV and hearing him at 19:00 say in the next few years he's going to knock our socks off. I always anticipated what he was going to come up with. Sure enough it was jack shit.
And ShowBiz Pizza Place; both companies would come together in 1984 when CEC filed for bankruptcy in the wake of the aftermath of the previous year's video game crash and had sold its assets to SBPP; the name of the unified company was ShowBiz Pizza Time, Inc. (a portmanteau of ShowBiz Pizza Place and Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza Time Theatre) The two then still-separate brands would be further joined together in 1990 with the "Concept Unification" program, which was initiated after ShowBiz Pizza Time had cut its ties with Aaron Fechter's Creative Engineering, which gradually phased out the ShowBiz name in favor of CEC; the transition was completed by 1994.
Sex and video games; interesting that its about 50 years since they started, as did the actual hippies that are celebrating the countercultures 50th anniversaries. Happy 50th Sex, Drugs, Music, freedom and VIDEO GAMES!
Why were people protesting about the TV controlling the robots? I dont get it :S Nolan mentions about people thinking the TV would control the kids, surely that's not serious? lol
I love this episode. I watched it back in like 2002. I loved G4 until about 2006 when all my favorite shows were taking off the network.
He was always a man ahead of his time
Nolan Bushnell your my hero, I can wait to see what else your coming out with to knock our socks off. Love ya Nolan.
Pretty sure he isn't "coming out" with anything anymore
What a time to be in the video game industry.

This man inspires me to go into game design and engineering, but I won't make the same mistakes that he made
Lots of luck
Nolan Bushnell was the Thomas Edison to Ralph Baer's Nikola Tesla when it comes to video games.
Very well said
Ah, I'd always wondered if there was a deeper story. Going to look into Ralph's story now.
Very cool stuff and lessons in innovation!

Feels like they don’t make docs like this anymore
I'm in my 12 years old when ATARI came out, and my mother will testify in court that TV will control your child's mind and consume their time.
And Dungeons & Dragon and heavy metal music will make you worship the devil.
Chucky cheese just went bankrupt fuuuuccccckkkkkk
