Ahem. The problem with FR is that people can check my posting history, or I would NEVER ADMIT to having snottily claimed that videogames were lousy preparation for the real world. Mea culpa.
OTOH, you're not fooling anyone. Your first videogame was Pong, admit it. The original version. And it cost you a quarter a shot...
Nope!!! Magnavox Odessey... I even had the pistol for target practice...
It was pretty much just a pong game, you could just play pong, or tennis, by putting a green "tennis court" plastic overlay on the screen, or ice hockey, with the overlay that looked like an ice rink!
