Under the hood, Video Olympics is Pong in its purest, most logical form.

In an era of 4K ray-tracing and 120fps shooters, why would anyone download a Pong ROM for a 45-year-old console?

To understand this specific version of Pong , one must understand the hardware it ran on. In 1977, the Atari 2600 used a microprocessor and swap-able cartridges—a revolutionary concept. However, the original Pong (1972) was an arcade machine built using discrete logic chips, with no code.

The Video Olympics ROM is not an exciting download. There are no explosions, no aliens, and no hidden levels. But as a piece of digital history, it is essential.

Here is an amazing accomplishment: a full implementation of Pong in 1kb of ROM, which uses 0 bytes of RAM at runtime. csanyk.com Pong - Gymnasium Documentation
