'Pong,' 'Tetris' make Video Game Hall of Fame's first class

In this May 17, 2015 photo provided by the Strong Museum, shows video games to be inducted into the World Video Game Hall of Fame on Thursday, June 4, 2015, at the Strong museum in Rochester, N.Y. The new inductees include “Pong,” top center, the 1972 table tennis game that introduced millions to electronic play, and “Doom,” upper right, which in 1993 turned players into virtual gunmen and fueled the debate over whether violent games contribute to real-life aggression. The Hall of Fame says the first six games, cross decades and platforms, but all have impacted the video game industry, popular culture and society in general. Joining “Pong,” and “Doom,” are: Nintendo's “Super Mario Bros.,” lower right, arcade-draw “Pac-Man,” upper left, Russian import “Tetris,” lower left, and “World of Warcraft,” bottom center. Nominations for the Hall of Fame’s next class are open from now through the end of March, 2016. (Bethany Mosher, The Strong Museum via AP)ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — The first inductees into the new World Video Game Hall of Fame include "Pong," the game that introduced millions to electronic play, "Doom," which triggered a debate over the role of games and violence in society, and "Super Mario Bros.," whose mustachioed hero has migrated to everything from fruit snacks to sneakers.
