The Star Trek Game That Predates Game Consoles
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2024
- There was a Star Trek video game released in 1971. The Magnavox Odyssey, the first game console, came out in 1972. Today on Stuff We Play, let's examine all this! Just in time for Star Trek Strange New Worlds, too!
Also, feel free to give me any tips/suggestions for making my upcoming apartment move as headache-free as possible for my husband and I. I'm going to have a proper studio space again and I'm excited! Also any channel memberships and Patreon Pledges and such right now will be going directly towards extra cash while moving, just a heads up.
Check out the C# version of Star Trek '71 over on CodeProject: www.codeproject.com/Articles/...

Thank you for watching! - Ігри
If you haven't had a chance to see it yet, I co-created an hour and some long documentary with my friend Jonii that we released last month! If you like lost media, Broadway, and/or Pokémon, then maybe you'll enjoy it: ua-cam.com/video/-fukHks29cU/v-deo.html&t
I played this when it came out. Up until a few years ago, I still had the _Dot Matrix_ printout.
That's way cool!
I played it quite a bit on an HP2000 (connected through a DecWriter II printing terminal via a 300 baud leased line), in the six or so months before Star Wars hit the theaters in 1977. It's what got me started in software development. I might have some dot matrix printouts of the source code squirreled away somewhere.
Oh, and for the OP, "Irvine" has a *long* "i" in the middle - "urh-vine".
walking in and stepping over your chair for the intro is a huge power move
Thank you
That brings back memories! I took BASIC programming in high school around 1978. Ten class members took turns at the ASR-33 teletype, which communicated with an HP-2000 by an acoustic coupler modem that ran at 10 characters per second. When class demand for the teletype was low, we sometimes played the Star Trek game. Years later, watching The Wrath of Khan and the Enterprise team trying to get the Klingon Bird of Prey to do their bidding reminded me of gathering around the ASR-33 trying to get programs to run.
I'm delighted that Stellar Track got a mention. The Atari 2600 was absolutely not designed to output that level of text, so the fact that it's as faithful as it was to the original is impressive. There was another 2600 title strongly influenced by Star Trek '71 as well, Star Raiders, which was more graphics heavy. Oddly enough, even though that title was more arcade like, it came with a 12 button keypad style controller as a pack-in as it was needed to run the game, whereas the more traditional Stellar Track used the joystick.
I would have loved to dived into that bit further, but perhaps that's a video for another time. The Star Raiders controller alone fascinates me!
I was considering doing exactly this topic at some point, no need to now! There's a huge wealth of great star trek fan games out there. Well done!
Played Star Trek on my brother's TRS-80 in the late 70s, how amazing that was.
I used to play this on the IBM mainframe before classes back in the mid-70s. Really fun. Wonder how many trees were cut down for us?
I've been playing with the idea of taking all the games from "The Big Yellow Book" -- aka "Basic Computer Games" by David H. Ahl
-- which includes a version of this star trek, and converting them to JavaScript so they can be played online. All of these early game titles are historically important, and we should be making efforts to preserve their experience through something other than emulation.
Long time Star Trek fan! Loving Picard and Discovery is epic. Anyways love learning about new games I never knew existed. Star Trek stuff always welcome and appreciated. Sorry to hear you're going through a rough patch. Hope things are getting better.
Thank you tons. Things are looking up a bit, so I'm crossing my fingers they'll continue on the uptrend
wait, "Long time Star Trek fan!" AND "Loving Picard and Discovery is epic." Really? Are you sure about that?
@@willstikken5619 You do realise people are allowed to like media you don't, yeah?
@@StuffWePlay Of course. It's just unusual for people to like things so completely different as Star Trek and Discovery or Picard. I'm not saying they can't like shows that are so poorly executed and vapid only that it's difficult to reconcile that with being a Star Trek fan.
I got into computers in 1980...I started my gaming on a trs80 model I and this was the first game we played...we loved it...you worked the numeric pad with this game and the instructor liked that aspect of it. I am sure it was a basic variant of what you was playing...I remember the layout details being about the same. Next year I got into the big five games for the trs80 but we still come back to this one from time to time...it was trekie thing. Strategy made this game work well.
Begin Tactical Starship Simulator was quite fun to play back in the DOS days as well.
My uncle Bob let me play Star Trek on his TSR-80. I loved it and would later get my first computer, A Macintosh 128K that was upgraded to the 512k.
Played this in High School (1976) and the teacher was not amused at how much paper I wasted lol. No CRT at that time, good memories. CRT = Cathode Ray Tube monitor. BTW the computer was a "time share" mini computer we had to dial into...all tasks were "time shared"...meaning you had to wait for your task to process.
Used to play this game on school computers back in the day.
Played this on Atari, C64, and there was an early 80s arcade machine that used the same rules with vector graphics and really good controls, that was my favorite version
I played that vector graphics version as a kid at Showbiz owned by Nolan Bushnell (now mostly owned by Chuck E. Cheese). I have very vivid, distinct memories of the vector "moving star pattern" photon torpedo graphics.
I played this on a TRS (TRASH) 80. At the time it was fun as heck. This played more like a destryer/Sub schase. Where you know where the enemy is you can't directly see them. Now I have to go looking for it again to play.
everythings been done on youtube before Steph Jim Sterling has seen to that
the first fangame
Have you never heard of “The Brown Box”, it came out before The Odyssey I?
Brown Box was not commercially released
Cool video. My mom was a huge Star Trek fan. She had the "Star Trek - The Collector's Edition" VHS Series from Columbia House. I wasn't into it as much.
5:54 - that whole room is one computer? And is it just me or is "XBOX' written on them?
As a Californian, I've never heard anyone else except me as a kid call Irvine "Ir-Veen". 😂😂😂
This comment is a formal apology to the residents of Irvine, California XD
And yeah! That whole room is mostly one computer setup!
xerox
@@Doncolorado thanks
Yep they were that big. And your phone can hold more data on it than one of those reel to reel tapes.
This sounds wild
If only anyone could find any way to play the 1972 for-play star trek...
wasnt there any old skool cpu game with death mine?
> Books by William Shatner
The TekWar one was ghostwritten lel
My favourite one was The Return, where Kirk, after having come back from the dead, defeats the entire goddam Borg by flipping a switch
…did…did you just shade Jessie Gender?
I've been low-key binging her channel lately. I think she's fantastic
A trans gaming channel. . . In my city!? Guess I have competition, or a friend
Why not both?
@@StuffWePlay I'm bad at multitasking
Do moar Star Trek please!
Definitely thinking about it!
