2 | El Ajedrecista (aka The Chess Player) | 01/01/1914 | Probably never going to get to play it. Traditional games aren't that fun anyway. | No emulation extant. Both machines are still extant. The earliest date I could find for the public display of the first machine was 1914--this coincides with when it was moved to the Academias de Ciencias de París (Acadamies of Science of Paris). If I could find a hard date of when exactly that move happened, I could narrow it down. The earliest confirmed date with archeological evidence is the Scientific American article dated November 6, 1915. It doesn't have an output via light and is a discrete state machine, but isn't digital, but the digital thing doesn't define what a computer is. An abacus is mechanical and analog, but it can't execute instructions automatically and was never considered a game. | https://www.chessprogramming.org/El_Ajedrecista http://cyberneticzoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Torres-Chess-Byte-Sep1978-Williams.pdf https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=es&u=http://www.esi2.us.es/ANT-old/ingenio/ingenio3/leonardo&prev=search | |||||
3 | El Ajedrecista II (aka The Chess Player 2) | 01/01/1922 | No emulation extant. Both machines are still extant. Williams' article is the closest I can get to pinning down an exact public display date until someone makes a scan available of Chapuis et Edouard Gelis, Le Monde des Automates, 1928. They were the ones who came up with the 1922 date. It was displayed at the Sorbonne lab, wherever that was. The next closest date we've got is January 8, 1951 at a Paris, France series of lectures titled “computing machines and human thought,” according to "Paul Chauchard, “Les machines à calculer et la pensée humaine,” Revue Générale des Sciences Pures et Appliquées 58 (1951) 5-7 . The proceedings of the congress appeared in 1953 as number 47 of the series Colloques Internationaux du Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (no editors named)." There's no scan of either article available. Again, it uses discrete states and isn't analog or digital. It has a visual display in that you can see it, but it doesn't generate that display as an artificial display via generation of light. | http://cyberneticzoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Torres-Chess-Byte-Sep1978-Williams.pdf https://books.google.com/books?id=9RFTAQAAQBAJ http://www.infoamerica.org/documentos_word/shannon-wiener.htm#_ftnref42 | ||||||
4 | Nim | 09/24/1940 | Probably never going to get to play it. Traditional games aren't that fun anyway. | http://www.archimedes-lab.org/game_nim/nim.html# | There is no emulation extant for Condon's Nim machine, or any description of the departures his version made from traditional Nim. Condon's had a square grid. | http://www.museumofplay.org/about/icheg/video-game-history/timeline | ||||
5 | Cathode Ray Tube Amusement Device | 12/14/1948 | Never going to play it. It was barely a proof of concept, let alone a finished game. | A single prototype that may or may not still exist. Just play duck hunt or literally any other thing that involves an aiming device and a timer. | No one has made an emulator for Goldsmith, Jr. and Mann's unique incarnation of it. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode-ray_tube_amusement_device | ||||
6 | MANIAC I | 03/01/1952 | Who cares. It's chess. | No emulator extant. | It probably used paper tape. Who knows. Most people define a video game as something that uses electricity (check), mechanical logic tables (check), and a display which generates output via light (not check). MANIAC I doesn't meet the criterion in two out of three fields. It's not a "video" game; not a visual one and not an audio one. It prints information only; it's a computer game. If you're looking for an information game, doodle about with a slate, stylus, and abacus. If you want something that belongs to the gaming genre as most people think of it, keep exploring. Now if someone were to create an emulated version complete with a GUI as opposed to a command line window with nothing but instructions on where to move pieces, that would be a video game. Text adventures contain more than just information, so they don't count. | https://www.chessprogramming.org/MANIAC_I | https://chessprogramming.wikispaces.com/MANIAC+I | |||
7 | Konrad Zuse's chess program | 01/01/1959 | Konrad Zuse: I'm trying to figure out when his first chess program was made. 1959 and 1945 are when he published papers about it, but there's no record of his actually writing a complete program, even an alpha or pre-alpha. It's all just theory. "yeah, I could make a program and here's some general ways it would work, but nothing that would separate it from other programs." | http://zuse.zib.de/item/XWYQtTMNiU1PqD3m | ||||||

80 | Street Fighter aka Street Fighter 1 aka Street Fighter I aka Fighting Street | 08/30/1987 | http://www.emuparadise.me/M.A.M.E._-_Multiple_Arcade_Machine_Emulator_ROMs/Street_Fighter_(US,_set_1)/98569 | Most reviewers don't like it; maybe it's just the TurboGrafx version had bad emulation. I dunno. If the TurboGrafx version is bad, I could try out the arcade version. TurboGrafx just had a better sound chip, so the Arcade version is actually probably the better one. If I had to buy one, I'd go with the PlayStation 2 emulation, since I've been planning on getting a PS2 to emulate it on a PC. | http://www.amazon.com/Capcom-Classics-Collection-Volume-2-Playstation/dp/B000GLT82O | |||||
